Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Castillo, Anabel; Khislavsky, Alexander; Altman, Meaghan; Gilger, Jeffrey W. – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022
Many studies examine how bilinguals and monolinguals differ in their executive function abilities at one time-point or cross-sectionally. Fewer examine how these groups of children may differ over time. Using nationally representative data obtained from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class of 2010-2011 (ECLS-K:2011), this…

Do Spanish-English Bilingual Children Outperform Monolingual English-Speaking Children on Executive Function Tasks in Early Childhood? A Propensity Score Analysis
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Goodrich, J. Marc; Koziol, Natalie A.; Yoon, HyeonJin; Leiva, Sergio – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Despite much research examining whether bilingual individuals demonstrate superior executive function (EF) skills compared to monolinguals, the purported bilingual advantage remains controversial. One potential reason for discrepant findings across studies examining the bilingual advantage is the difficulty in matching monolingual and bilingual…

Developmental Assets at Preschool Entry That Support Dual Language Learners' Academic Development through the First Grade
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Christina Stephens; Robert C. Pianta; Jessica E. Whittaker; Virginia E. Vitiello – Grantee Submission, 2025
Dual language learner children (DLLs) benefit from early childhood education (ECE) and learning multiple languages, but research has predominantly focused on English monolingual children, with limited insight on the ECE and early development of DLLs. This study investigated whether DLLs' developmental assets assessed at pre-k entry (i.e. English…

Developmental Associations between Bilingual Experience and Inhibitory Control Trajectories in Head Start Children
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Santillán, Jimena; Khurana, Atika – Developmental Science, 2018
Children from lower socioeconomic (SES) backgrounds tend to be at-risk for executive function (EF) impairments by the time they are in preschool, placing them at an early disadvantage for academic success. The present study examined the potentially protective role of bilingual experience on the development of inhibitory control (IC) in 1146 Head…
