Abstract:
It has been found that bilinguals and children from minority backgrounds, lag behind monolinguals or those in the majority culture, with respect to prevalence, assessment, and treatment for Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This suggests that bilingualism might be yet another factor giving rise to variability in ADHD. Using regression methods, we analysed parent reports for 394 primary school-aged children on background and language experience, ADHD-related behaviour, and structural language skill in English to explore whether bilingualism is associated with levels of ADHD-related behaviour. Bilingualism as a category was associated with slightly lower levels of ADHD-related behaviour. Bilingualism as a continuous measure showed a trend of being associated with lower levels, but this did not quite reach significance. Structural language skill in English was the main predictor of levels of ADHD-related behaviour; higher skill predicting lower levels. More investigation is required to confirm ... : The first author of this research is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (Research Councils United Kingdom) Doctoral Training Partnership (ES/J500033/1), while the other two co-authors would like to thank the Arts and Humanities Research Council (UK) for support through project Multilingualism: Empowering Individuals, Transforming Societies (MEITS, AH/N004671/1). ...
