在这篇文章中，我们评论的重大贡献，科学和临床实践所取得的Floccia等。对400多名双语2岁儿童的研究。对于科学来说，这项工作为语言因素提供了新的发现，使一些语言比其他语言更容易学习，并为影响双语发展的环境因素提供了丰富的数据。他们的研究结果为语言学习过程的本质提供了线索。在临床实践中，Floccia等人为双语儿童语言障碍风险的诊断提供了一种新的工具，并为更普遍的评估工具的开发提供了一种新的方法。他们在这里所阐述的经验调整的规范方法为其他人提供了一个可以效仿的例子。他们的方法为许多领域的测试开发提供了希望，这些领域的目标是评估儿童的内部能力，但儿童成就中可用的证据受到环境因素的系统性影响。
In this article, we comment on the significant contributions to science and to clinical practice made by Floccia et al.'s study of over 400 bilingual 2‐year‐old children. To science, this work contributes new findings on the linguistic factors that make some pairs of languages easier to learn than others and rich data on the environmental factors that influence bilingual development. Their results provide clues to the nature of the language learning process. To clinical practice, Floccia et al. contribute a new instrument for the diagnosis of risk for language impairment in bilingual children and a new method for the development of assessment instruments more generally. The experience‐adjusted approach to norming that they illustrate here provides an example for others to follow. Their method holds promise for test development in many domains where the goal is to assess children's internal capacity but the evidence that is available in children's achievement is systematically influenced by environmental factors.
