A question I would like to ask: Do children learn languages
better at younger ages? My hypothesis is that younger children will learn a new
language faster than older children. To test this, I would use an experimental
method, then a cross-section design. To conduct this experiment, I would take a
sample of children from 2 years old to 8 years old. The youngest the children could
be for this experiment is 2 years old because this is when they are speaking well
and forming sentences. The children will be brought into a lab setting and taught
another language, such as Spanish. To measure the results, the children will be
verbally tested on their vocabulary of foreign words after a certain period of
time, for example a month. The results of the different age groups will be
compared using a cross-section design to determine which age group learned the
most words the fastest.
