The Receptive-Expressive Gap in English Narratives of Spanish-English Bilingual Children With and Without Language Impairment

摘要

Purpose: First, we sought to extend our knowledge of second language (L2) receptive compared to expressive narrative skills in bilingual children with and without primary language impairment (PLI). Second, we sought to explore whether narrative receptive and expressive performance in bilingual children's L2 differed based on the type of contextual support.
