Jessica A. Hernandez; Kate E. Norwalk; Eui Kyung Kim – Contemporary School Psychology, 2024
Despite rapidly increasing cultural and linguistic diversity in US schools, the majority of psychoeducational evaluations will be conducted by monolingual, English-speaking school psychologists.

First, it brings theories together to develop a cohesive understanding of teaching reading with emergent bilinguals at the center. Second, it illuminates ways educators can design reading instruction, which is…

Naja Ferjan Ramírez – First Language, 2024
This study focuses on parental use of parentese: the acoustically exaggerated, clear, and higher-pitched speech produced by adults across cultures when they address infants. While previous research shows that parentese enhances language learning and processing, it is still unclear what drives the variability in the amount of parental parentese…

Carolina Melo; Robert Pianta; Jamie DeCoster; Pelusa Orellana – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2024
Bilingualism has been systematically associated with better self-regulatory skills (), however, this advantage does not seem to automatically transfer for most dual language learners. This suggests that there are other contextual factors that are necessary to trigger this advantage. This study examines the role of teacher-child interactions in the…

Irfan Tosuncuoglu – Pegem Journal of Education and Instruction, 2024
In the geographies where various languages are spoken, individuals may have to experience learning one or more languages to fulfil their needs. When societies who live together and use various language groups make contact with people who use other language groups and cultures, they have to interact with each other. This mutual effect is then…

Steve Daniel Przymus – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2024
How we talk about bilingualism has an effect on how others think about bilingual individuals, and in turn, how "active bilingual learners/users of English" (ABLE) students are assessed and taught in schools. I use a transdisciplinary approach of bridging social semiotics, applied linguistics, psycholinguistics, and cognitive linguistics…

Miranda Gómez Díaz; Laia Fibla; Rachel Ka-Ying Tsui; Krista Byers-Heinlein – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Sometime before their second birthday, many children have a period of rapid expressive vocabulary growth called the vocabulary spurt. Theories of the underlying mechanisms differ: Accumulator models emphasize the accumulation of experience with words over time to yield a spurtlike pattern, while cognitive models attribute the spurt to cognitive…

Christine C. Muscat; Monika Molnar; Jovana Pejovic – Language Learning and Development, 2025
By 12 months of age, infants exhibit behavioral sensitivity to sound symbolism (e.g. sound-shape correspondences) when they hear universally sound symbolic pseudowords (e.g. "bouba," "kiki"). Here, we investigated whether infant's sensitivity to sound-shape correspondences is affected when they hear language-specific sound…

Krista Byers-Heinlein; Ana Maria Gonzalez-Barrero; Esther Schott; Hilary Killam – First Language, 2024
Vocabulary size is a crucial early indicator of language development, for both monolingual and bilingual children. Assessing vocabulary in bilingual children is complex because they learn words in two languages, and there remains significant controversy about how to best measure their vocabulary size, especially in relation to monolinguals. This…
