Specific Language Impairment and Early Second Language Acquisition: The Risk of Over- and Underdiagnosis (2014, background): “The existing studies indicate that, besides chronological age, age of onset and length of exposure influence eL2 children’s language performance (cf. Schwartz 2004; Schulz et al. 2008; Unsworth 2005).”
Articles, adjectives and age of onset: the acquisition of Dutch grammatical gender (2008, background): “The merit of this three-way comparison is that it potentially allows disentangling effects of age of onset and L1 vs. L2 acquisition (Schwartz, 1992; 2004; Unsworth, 2005).”
The acquisition of articles in child second language English: fluctuation, transfer or both? (2008, unknown): “…difficulties with a target structure are inherent in the process of learning that structure, rather than stemming from cognitive immaturity (i.e. L1 acquisition), on the one hand, or age-based limitations for native-like attainment (i.e. adult L2 acquisition), on the other (compare Schwartz, 2004).”
