The home language environment of monolingual and bilingual children and their language proficiency (2009, methodology): “The present study involved 162 3-year-old children from Dutch (n = 58), Moroccan–Dutch (n = 46), and Turkish–Dutch (n = 55) families living in The Netherlands.”
What Defines Language Dominance in Bilinguals? (2019, unknown): “Verhoeven (2007), for example, created a Turkish and Dutch sentence repetition test as part of a test battery that measured a wide range of abilities among Turkish–Dutch fiveyear-old children in the Netherlands.”
Home and community factors influencing bilingual children’s ethnic language vocabulary development (2012, background): “…through the societal language, because concepts already established in one language are more readily learned in the other language than totally new concepts (Cárdenas-Hagan, Carlson, & PollardDurodola, 2007; Cummins, 1991; Genesee, Paradis, & Crago, 2004; Kroll & de Groot, 2005; Verhoeven, 2007).”
