Purpose The purpose of this study was to find morphological markers with good diagnostic accuracy to identify developmental language disorders (DLD) in Spanish-English bilingual children. Method The participants in this study included 66 Spanish-English bilingual children between the ages of 4;0 and 6;11 (years;months) with (n = 33) and without DLD (n = 33). We employed a comprehensive production task in Spanish to elicit morphological structures that have been previously found to be problematic for Spanish-speaking children with DLD. These structures included elements of nominal morphology (articles, direct object pronouns, adjectives, and plurals) and verbal morphology (verbs and the subjunctive mood). Logistic regression was used in this study to find a set of grammatical structures that most accurately predicted group membership. Results Spanish-English bilingual children with and without DLD significantly differed from each other in their accurate production of articles, clitics, adjectives, verbs, and the subjunctive mood. Clitics, verbs, and the subjunctive mood in isolation had adequate diagnostic accuracy. A combination of verb and subjective mood accuracy best predicted group membership in this study (sensitivity of 85% and specificity of 91%). Conclusion In addition to clitics, verbs, and the subjunctive mood, both elements of verbal morphology should be considered grammatical markers of DLD in Spanish-English bilingual children.

有和没有发展性语言障碍的讲西班牙语的双语儿童的形态错误。

目的 本研究的目的是寻找具有良好诊断准确性的形态学标志物，以识别西班牙语-英语双语儿童的发育性语言障碍 (DLD)。方法 本研究的参与者包括 66 名西班牙-英语双语儿童，年龄介于 4;0 和 6;11（岁；月）之间，有 (n = 33) 和没有 DLD (n = 33)。我们在西班牙语中采用了一项综合生产任务来引出以前发现对讲西班牙语的 DLD 儿童存在问题的形态结构。这些结构包括名词形态（冠词、直接宾语代词、形容词和复数）和动词形态（动词和虚拟语气）的元素。本研究使用逻辑回归来找到一组最准确地预测组成员的语法结构。结果 有和没有 DLD 的西班牙-英语双语儿童在文章、附随词、形容词、动词和虚拟语气的准确生产方面存在显着差异。Clitics、动词和孤立的虚拟语气具有足够的诊断准确性。在这项研究中，动词和主观情绪准确性的结合最能预测组成员（敏感性为 85%，特异性为 91%）。结论 除附随词、动词和虚拟语气外，言语形态的这两个要素都应被视为西英双语儿童 DLD 的语法标记。补充材料 https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.13641320。和虚拟语气。Clitics、动词和孤立的虚拟语气具有足够的诊断准确性。在这项研究中，动词和主观情绪准确性的结合最能预测组成员（敏感性为 85%，特异性为 91%）。结论 除附随词、动词和虚拟语气外，言语形态的这两个要素都应被视为西英双语儿童 DLD 的语法标记。补充材料 https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.13641320。和虚拟语气。Clitics、动词和孤立的虚拟语气具有足够的诊断准确性。在这项研究中，动词和主观情绪准确性的结合最能预测组成员（敏感性为 85%，特异性为 91%）。结论 除附随词、动词和虚拟语气外，言语形态的这两个要素都应被视为西英双语儿童 DLD 的语法标记。补充材料 https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.13641320。言语形态的这两个要素都应被视为西班牙语-英语双语儿童的 DLD 的语法标记。补充材料 https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.13641320。言语形态的这两个要素都应被视为西班牙语-英语双语儿童的 DLD 的语法标记。补充材料 https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.13641320。
