Picture-Naming Agreement in Monolinguals and Bilinguals.

Goggin, Judith P.; And Others

Applied Psycholinguistics, v15 n2 p177-93 Jun 1994

Name agreement in Spanish and English in response to 264 pictures was assessed in monolinguals and bilinguals, who varied in rated skill in the 2 languages. Name agreement decreased as language skill decreased, and agreement was lower when labels were given in Spanish rather than in English. Word frequency and word length were found to be related to agreement. (34 references) (Author/LB)
