<div>Hello,</div>
<div>I designed a questionnaire to measure the quantity of input bilingual children were exposed to and I also measured the quality of input.</div>

<div style="WORD-WRAP:break-word">Hi Jen, 
<div>In terms of questionnaires designed to measure bilingual language exposure, I'm aware of the LEAP-Q (Marian, Blumenfeld, & Kaushanskaya (2007) and a similar measure used by Bosch and Sebastian-Galles (2001).  The former is intended for use with adult bilinguals, and is normed.  The latter is intended for use with parents of infants and young children, but is not normed.  I'm including the references below. I'm not aware of any questionnaires intended to measure exposure to culture.</div>
