Abstract(in English) Previous studies have suggested that the knowledge of picture books possessed by caregivers predicts their children’s language ability, reflecting the richness of linguistic input in shared book reading. We developed a Japanese version of Title/Author Recognition Tests to measure the picture book knowledge of Japanese caregivers. Two groups of Japanese caregivers completed questionnaires including title/author lists and some measures related to shared book reading. The results revealed significant correlations between recognition scores and measures related to shared book reading in both groups, supporting the reliability and the validity of the lists.
