// Alignment of Parent and Child Self-Report of Bilingual Language Experience and Proficiency
489名學前至三年級雙語兒童(平均7.24歲)問卷配對分析|孩童回收93%、家長31%;兩者評估中至大相關,年級僅預測孩童自評、一致性受年級影響證據不明|結論:孩童自評非取代家長報告,但在家長回收率低時為有效補充,能提供獨特雙語能力視角。
// The study tested how well parent reports and children’s self-reports of Spanish–English proficiency and bilingual experience align, and whether alignment varies by grade. Researchers analyzed matched parent and child questionnaires from 489 bilingual children in prekindergarten through third grade (mean age 7.24). Child questionnaires had much higher response rates (93% vs 31%), parent and child measures correlated from medium to large, and grade predicted children’s self-reported proficiency (but not bilingual experience); evidence that alignment differed by grade was inconclusive. Thus, child self-report is not a replacement for parent report but is a valid, practical supplement—particularly when parent response rates are low—and offers a unique perspective on bilingual ability.
