Phonological predictors of nonword repetition performance in bilingual children.

Introduction: Previous research (Gibson et al., 2015; Summers, Bohman, Gillam, Peña & Bedore, 2010) has suggested an advantage in Spanish over English on nonword repetition tasks with Spanish-English bilingual children. However, comparing nonwords of equal syllable lengths across languages may not sufficiently account for phonological differences across languages.
