Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find the various factors which affect child language development and the effects of bilingual experiences on children's cognitive development. 143 Korean-Chinese children in China were selected to test Korean-Chinese language development, cognitive development, and the bilingual environments. The best predicting model of the Korean and Chinese development was suggested. The age, parents' language attitude, and cognitive development directly affected the children's Korean development while memory indirectly affected the children's Korean development. Similarly, the age, parent's Chinese use and cognitive development directly affected the children's Chinese development, while memory and fathers' education indirectly affected the children's Chinese development.
