Treatment Targets in Spanish and English Bilingual Speech Intervention (NCT06416306)
Speech Intervention for Bilingual Children
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which speech treatment targets result in the greatest amount of speech learning in Spanish-English bilingual children with speech sound disorders. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does linguistic complexity of the treatment target increase the amount of generalized learning within the treated language? * Does linguistic complexity of the treatment target increase the amount of generalized speech across languages? Researchers will compare intervention effects across treatment provided in English and Spanish to see if the effect differs according to the language of intervention. Participants will: * Attend between 12 and 18 45-minute speech intervention sessions in Spanish or English for up to 6 weeks * Attend assessment visits before and after intervention * Attend follow-up assessment visits 1 month and 2 months after intervention
