某些语用标准进行了比较，传统的表面为导向的双语儿童语言障碍的诊断标准。受试者为10名6至8岁的西班牙语/英语双语儿童，他们是由双语课堂教师转介进行特殊教育评估的。从每个孩子的两种语言中获得自发语言样本。这些样本被转录，然后根据表面导向标准和实用标准检查正常性。两种语言的表层元素包括形态结构和句法结构。语用标准包括不流利，修改，延迟，所指术语的特异性，突然的话题转移，不适当的反应，以及需要多次重复的提示。正如预期的那样，有可能证明这两套标准将不同的亚组确定为语言障碍。为了测试不同诊断的准确性，在基本上是单语英语课堂设置的平均7个月的主流化之前和之后，对学习成绩进行了测试。教师的英语语言发展和社会化的评级之前和之后的7个月期间也进行了检查。结果显示，语用标准是成绩和教师评价的上级预测因子。传统的诊断标准似乎需要实用标准的补充。
Certain pragmatic criteria were compared with traditionally employed surface-oriented criteria for the diagnosis of language disorders in bilingual children. Subjects were 10 Spanish/English bilingual children between 6 and 8 years of age who had been referred by bilingual classroom teachers for a special education evaluation. Spontaneous language samples were obtained from each child in both languages. The samples were transcribed and then examined for normalcy according to surface-oriented criteria and pragmatic criteria. The surface elements examined in both languages included morphological and syntactic structures. The pragmatic criteria included nonfluencies, revisions, delays, specificity of referential terms, abrupt topic shifts, inappropriate responses, and the need for multiple repetition of prompts. As expected, it was possible to demonstrate that the two sets of criteria identified different subgroups as language disordered. To test the accuracy of the disparate diagnoses, academic achievement was tested both before and after an average of 7 months of mainstreaming in essentially monolingual English classroom settings. Teacher ratings of English language development and socialization were also examined before and after the 7-month period. Results revealed that the pragmatic criteria were superior predictors of both achievement and teacher ratings. Traditional diagnostic criteria appear to need supplementation by pragmatic criteria.
