Abstract

Many children with developmental language disorder (DLD) are reported to have word reading difficulties. However, previous research has focused mostly on monolingual children. The present study used two existing datasets to assess word reading outcomes of bilingual children with DLD. In Study 1, we compared word reading outcomes of monolingual and bilingual children with and without DLD (n = 93 monolingual DLD; n = 33 bilingual DLD, n = 42 monolingual TD; n = 74 bilingual TD). In Study 2, we compared those of monolingual (n = 91) and bilingual children with DLD (n = 51) on the basis of school record data. Findings from both studies show mean poor word reading outcomes and a high incidence of poor readers in the groups of children with DLD. Despite lower oral language outcomes of bilingual children in the mainstream language, reading outcomes of monolingual and bilingual children (with/without DLD) did not differ or outcomes were even better for the bilingual children. Overall, these findings indicate that DLD is a risk factor for word reading difficulties, while bilingualism is not.

  • Stratifying base rates using a measure of crystalized intelligence (as defined by the NIHTB-CB with measures of receptive vocabulary and single word reading) may underestimate the abilities of English language learners and youth with certain neurodevelopmental disorders, such as reading disorder (dyslexia) and language disorder.

    “stratifying base rates using a measure of crystalized intelligence (as defined by the NIHTB-CB with measures of receptive vocabulary and single word reading) may underestimate the abilities of English language learners (Ortiz, 2019) and youth with certain neurodevelopmental disorders, such as reading disorder (i.e., dyslexia) and language disorder (de Bree et al., 2022; Gray et al., 2019).”

    From Cognitive weaknesses or impairments on the NIH toolbox cognition battery in children and adolescents: base rates in a normative sample and proposed methods for classification (2025) · cites this paper as de Bree et al., 2022

    In “DLD and word reading” (page unavailable), the paper reports that children with developmental language disorder often have smaller vocabularies and lower word-reading outcomes than typically developing peers. Its results also find below-average word-reading outcomes in the DLD groups. It does not test whether NIHTB-CB crystallized-intelligence scores used to stratify base rates underestimate broader abilities, or establish that claim for children with dyslexia. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
