Joseph Hin Yan Lam; Jiali Wang; Danyang Wang; Jissel B. Anaya; Lisa M. Bedore; Elizabeth D. Peña – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: The current study examines bilingual children's development of Spanish and English morphosyntax structures over the period of 1 year. Identification of morphosyntax forms clustered by difficulty can elucidate their development and guide clinicians to select appropriate targets for intervention and monitoring. Specifically, we aim to…
