Abstract:
Internationally-adopted children are a unique population of language learners.
They discontinue acquisition of their birth language when they are adopted by
families that speak other languages. Their unique language learning history
raises important practical, clinical and theoretical issues. Practically
speaking: what is the typical language learning trajectory of these children
after adoption and what factors affect their language learning: age at
adoption, country of origin, quality and nature of the pre-adoption learning
environment, and others. They also raise important theoretical questions: How
resilient is their socio-emotional, cognitive and language development
following adoption? Does their language development resemble that of first or
second language learners, or something else? Do they experience total
attrition of their birth language? Are there neuro-cognitive traces of the
birth language after adoption and what neuro-cognitive processes underlie
acquisition and processing of the adopted language; are they the same as those
of monolingual native speakers or those of early second language learners?
And, how do we interpret differences, if any, between adopted and non-adoptive
children? Chapters in this volume by leading researchers review research and
provide insights on these issues.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
