具有語音、語言與溝通需求的雙語兒童，是否比典型發展同儕更易流失傳承語言？

// Are Bilingual Children With Speech, Language, and Communication Needs More at Risk for Heritage Language Attrition Than Their Typically Developing Peers?

研究比較48名約7.9歲雙語兒童（TD vs SLCNs）之語言環境與能力｜SLCNs（語言/溝通需求）組英語（社會語，SL）輸入較多、母語（HL）環境、使用意願與母語能力較低｜母語經驗減少與母語能力下降相關，但未提升英語能力，顯示SLCNs雙語兒童更易母語流失，反駁「雙語損害社會語」的觀點。

// This study compared the language environments and proficiency of 48 bilingual children (~7.9 years) with typical development (TD) versus speech, language, and communication needs (SLCNs) using a parent "Quantifying Bilingual Experience" questionnaire and an English sentence repetition task. Children with SLCNs had more lifetime and current societal-language (English) input, a less rich heritage-language (HL) environment, were less willing to use HL, and showed lower HL proficiency than TD peers; reduced HL experience was linked to weaker HL but not to stronger SL. The authors conclude bilingual children with SLCNs are at greater risk of HL attrition and reduced HL exposure does not improve societal-language development, contradicting the view that bilingualism harms SL in SLCNs.
