Abstract

The current study evaluated the relation between Spanish and English vocabulary. Whereas previously reported correlations have revealed strong differences among types of vocabulary measures used and the ages of the students tested, no prior study had used a multilevel model to control for classroom-level differences, The current study used multiple measures of vocabulary-picture vocabulary and narrative production tasks-in multilevel models of 1,300 Spanish-speaking students in 247 kindergarten and 1st-grade classrooms in English immersion and bilingual transitional programs. The current results highlight the need to separate classroom effects from student effects, since for vocabulary measures, student-level correlations were strongly biased toward zero when classroom-level correlations were opposite in direction from student-level correlations. Most important, the current results support a strong distinction between types of vocabulary measure (e.g., picture vs. narrative) and suggest sizable influence of instruction for questions of bilingual performance.

  • Studies into the oral language of bilingual children at preschool and primary school levels show correlations between L1 and L2 ranging from positive over zero to negative.

    “studies into the oral language of bilingual children at preschool and primary school levels show correlations between L1 and L2, which range from positive over zero to negative (see reviews by Branum-Martin et al., 2009; Castilla, Restrepo, & Perez-Leroux, 2009; Genesee & Geva, 2006; Sandhofer & Uchikoshi, 2013; Snow & Kim, 2007).”

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.
