Bilingual Education Enhances Third Language Acquisition: Evidence from Catalonia.
Sanz, Cristina
Applied Psycholinguistics, v21 n1 p23-44 Mar 2000
Compares the acquisition of English as a third language by Catalan/Spanish bilingual high school students in an immersion program with the acquisition of English by Spanish monolinguals. Data from 201 participants were submitted to a hierarchical multiple regression analysis, rendering results that show that bilingualism has a positive effect on the acquisition of a third language.
