Pena, Elizabeth D.; Bedore, Lisa M.; Zlatic-Giunta, Rebecca
Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, v45 n5 p938-47 Oct 2002
A study examined how 44 bilingual (Spanish-English) children (ages 4-7) used taxonomic versus slot-filler strategies in a category-generation task presented in both languages. Younger bilingual children generated approximately equal numbers of items in both conditions, however, older bilingual children were beginning to demonstrate a taxonomic bias. (Contains references.)
