The Modeling Hypothesis and Child Bilingual Codemixing.
Comeau, Liane; Genesee, Fred; Lapaquette, Lindsay
International Journal of Bilingualism, v7 n2 p113-26 2003
Discusses the modeling hypothesis, in which bilingual children's rates of code mixing are related to rates of mixing in the input addressed to them, and the assumption that children are sensitive to code mixing in the input and can adjust their own rates in accordance with the input. Reports a study of six bilingual toddlers recorded during play sessions with an assistant who engaged in code mixing. (Author/VWL)
