Resum
This study investigated the sensitivity of 9-month-old infants to the alignment between prosodic and gesture prominences in pointing–speech combinations. Results revealed that the perception of prominence is multimodal and that infants are aware of the timing of gesture–speech combinations well before they can produce them.
