Print exposure in early childhood is related to linguistic skills such as oral language, reading comprehension and spelling during school years. A common way of exposing preschool children to print is during joint storytelling. Research has shown that total fixation time on print during storytelling is between 2% and 6% of the total fixation time on the book and is a function of the child’s age. What has yet to be determined, however, are differences, if any, in child fixation time on print during parent vs. experimenter joint storytelling. Here, we examined the effect of parent vs. experimenter storytelling–reading on fixation time on print among 4–6-year-old preschoolers. Specifically, we used an eye-tracking device to compare the fixation time percentage on print while the parent vs. an experimenter were reading a story to the child. Preschoolers fixated more on print when their parent was reading a story to them vs. the experimenter. Positive correlations between fixation time on print and linguistic skills and processing speed were found. Results suggest that joint storytelling with a parent promotes print awareness, an important factor in developing literacy and reading skills, and thus further emphasizes the importance of parent–child joint storytelling.
