目前的研究重点是移民儿童在学龄前早期的语言和认知能力，并将其与德国本土儿童的能力进行比较。此外，还分析了选定的家庭特征（主要照顾孩子的父母所说的语言、家庭内部的语言使用和家庭一体化的感知）对儿童语言能力的影响。样本包括547名儿童（119名有移民背景，428名没有移民背景）。测量时平均年龄为3岁；8年。结果显示，移民家庭的孩子在一系列标准化能力测量中表现不如德国本土同龄人。结果分别讨论了每个能力领域，并特别关注不同子群体的不同语言环境。
The current study focusses on verbal and cognitive competencies of children with background of migration at early preschool-age and compares their abilities to that of native German children. Additionally the impact of selected family characteristics (language spoken by the parent primarily taking care of the child, language use within the familiy and perceived integration of the family) on children's language competencies is analyzed. The sample included 547 children (119 with and 428 without background of migration). Mean age at time of measurement was 3; 8 years. Results show that children from immigrated families perform poorer than their native German peers in a wide range of standardized competence measures. The results are discussed separately for each competence domain and with special focus on the differing language environment of various subgroups.
