Note. LD = Language Delay; GDD = Global Developmental Delay;. ME = Monolingual exposed; BE =Bilingual exposed. Gender, diagnosis, and race/ethnicity are presented as percentages. Due to low cell counts for multiple racial/ethnic groups, children in the Hispanic/Latino, African American, Asian, and Other groups were combined into one “minority” group and compared to Caucasian children for analyses. Age is presented in months. SES is presented as mean income bracket, with a range of 1–15.
