PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Code-switching (alternation between language in a single utterance) is a common phenomenon observed among bilingual children with typical and atypical language, including children with developmental language disorder (DLD). Code-switching requires the speaker to integrate morphosyntactic features in both languages; therefore, language proficiency and social factors are important factors to consider when analyzing code- switching patterns. Current research on code-switching in children with DLD is limited by methodological issues, including problems with coding approaches, elicitation tasks, and accounting for children's language development. To address these issues, this proposed study will use a comprehensive coding method and a conversational elicitation task to examine code-switching patterns in bilingual children with and without DLD. The study will consider two perspectives, linguistic and sociolinguistic, to understand how language ability interacts with this phenomenon. The study will involve a Diapix task with three different interlocutors (English- only, Spanish-only, and bilingual Spanish-English). The conversations will be recorded, transcribed, and coded. This study aligns with the National Institute of Health's (NIH) vision and mission statement of seeking fundamental knowledge to advance diagnostic practices for clinicians working with bilingual Spanish-English speaking children globally. Ultimately, this project aims to provide essential and innovative research in the area of bilingual language disorder, while also training a promising new investigator in ethical, methodological, and substantive research practices.

项目概要/摘要 语码转换（单个话语中的语言之间的交替）是观察到的常见现象 具有典型和非典型语言的双语儿童，包括具有发展性语言的儿童 障碍（DLD）。语码转换要求说话者整合两种语言的形态句法特征； 因此，语言熟练程度和社会因素是分析代码时需要考虑的重要因素- 切换模式。目前对 DLD 儿童语码转换的研究受到方法论的限制 问题，包括编码方法、启发任务和儿童语言的问题 发展。为了解决这些问题，本研究将使用综合编码方法和 对话启发任务检查患有和不患有 DLD 的双语儿童的语码转换模式。 该研究将考虑语言学和社会语言学两个角度，以了解语言能力如何 与这种现象相互作用。该研究将涉及三个不同对话者（英语- 仅、仅西班牙语、西班牙语-英语双语）。对话将被记录、转录并 编码。这项研究符合美国国立卫生研究院 (NIH) 的愿景和使命宣言： 为使用西班牙语-英语双语的临床医生推进诊断实践提供基础知识 全球范围内说话的儿童。最终，该项目旨在提供该领域的重要和创新研究 双语语言障碍的研究，同时还培养了一位在伦理、方法论和道德方面有前途的新研究者 实质性的研究实践。
