Working Group 3
Group Leaders: Shula Chiat & Ewa Haman
There are 'rapid screening tools' for phonological processing as well as lexical processing. WG3 will estimate their potential for identifying SLI in bilinguals. Properties will be evaluated of non-word repetition and naming tasks in order to decide whether they are relevant for identifying SLI in bilingual populations with various language pairs. WG3 will also review bilingual lexical data in order to develop new bilingual measures of dominance and diversity.

Below are the presentations of the different meetings. To access the presentations themselves- contact the authors.
