Second language learners often produce language forms resembling
those of children with Specific Language Impairment (SLI). At
present, professionals working in language assessment and education
have only limited diagnostic instruments to distinguish language
impaired migrant children from those who will eventually catch up
with their monolingual peers. This book presents a comprehensive
set of tools for assessing the linguistic abilities of bilingual
children. It aims to disentangle effects of bilingualism from those
of SLI, making use of both models of bilingualism and models of
language impairment. The book's methods-oriented focus will make it
an essential handbook for practitioners who look for measures which
could be adapted to a variety of languages in diverse communities,
as well as academic researchers.
