Evaluation of the infant's cognitive, language and motor development using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition (BSID-III).

Results were reported as composites of cognitive, language, and motor scores, where data were continuous variables on a scale with a normal distribution of 95%. The composite scores are scaled to a metric with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15, and range from 40-160. A composite score above 77.5 is considered developmentally average and a composite score below 77.5 is considered a developmental concern. Data were described using mean and standard deviation. Significance was considered at a level of 0.05.

Differences in StimQ READ Subscale scores collected approximately 1 month after the 6, 9, and 12 month well visits.

Reading activity is measured using the StimQ READ subscale. This contains "yes/no" questions reflecting access to books, frequency of shared reading, and variety of books read in homes of young children, ages 5 to 36 months. The StimQ-Infant READ subscale is for use with infants 5-12 months of age and the StimQ-Toddler READ subscale is used with toddlers 12-36 months of age. The StimQ Infant and Toddler Read Subscales include a point scale for measuring cognitive stimulation resulting from the reading activity. Scores for the StimQ-Infant READ scale range from 0-15 with higher scores (greater number values) reflective of higher reading exposure. Scores for the StimQ-Toddler READ scale range from 0-19 with higher scores (greater number values) reflective of higher reading exposure.

Frequency of board book reading in the prior two weeks. Parents reported frequency as very often, often, rarely, never. Very often and often categories were combined and rarely and never categories were combined. We report number in each arm who report very often/often.

Frequency of e-book reading in the prior two weeks. Parents reported frequency as very often, often, rarely, never. Very often and often categories were combined and rarely and never categories were combined. We report number in each arm who report very often/often.
