Abstract:
The research investigated whether non-linguistic cognitive abilities can increase the prediction accuracy of fDLD in children in linguistically diverse settings. We examined non-linguistic cognitive abilities in mono- and bilingual school-aged children (ages 8–12) with and without fDLD. A combination of linguistic and non-linguistic measures provided the best distinction between fDLD and TD for both mono- and bilingual groups. A combination of non-linguistic and linguistic measures significantly improved the distinction between fDLD and TD for both mono- and bilingual groups.
