- The Language and Literacy Development of Young Dual Language Learners: A Critical Review (2014, result): “During the preschool years, significant relations have been found between the amount of exposure and children’s vocabulary, similar to research on infants/toddlers (Quiroz, Snow, & Zhao, 2010; Thordardottir, 2011).”
- Myths about Early Childhood Bilingualism (2015, background): “In a study of children learning French as a second language in Montreal, Thordardottir (2011) found that 40% to 50% exposure is necessary to perform within monolingual norms on tests of receptive vocabulary, but between 40% and 60% exposure on tests of expressive vocabulary.”
- Deaf children need language, not (just) speech (2019, unknown): “Current estimates from the spoken language literature point to 35–65% as the approximate borders of these ranges (Cattani et al., 2014; De Cat & Serratrice, 2018; Thordardottir, 2011; Unsworth, 2013).”
- Interpreting the Early Language Trajectories of Children from Low SES and Language Minority Homes: Implications for Closing Achievement Gaps (2012, unknown): “One study of French–English bilinguals in Montreal reports a significantly diminished monolingual–bilingual gap by the age of 5 years (Thordardottir, 2011).”
- Parental language mixing: Its measurement and the relation of mixed input to young bilingual children's vocabulary size* (2012, background): “…bilinguals’ vocabulary size in a particular language is linked to exposure to that language (David & Wei, 2008; Marchman et al., 2010; Pearson et al., 1997; Place & Hoff, 2011; Thordardottir, 2011), which has been attributed to increased opportunity to hear and thus learn words in that language.”
