In families with more than one child bilingualism seems to face more challenges. PhD candidate Daniela Panico has decided to focus her research on this less explored aspect of bilingualism, and she is looking for families willing to help her.


The title of Daniela's study is Languages choices of Italian/English siblings in bilingual families and her research is supervised by Antonia Rubino, Associate Professor, Department of Italian Studies, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Italian/English speaking families residing in Sydney are invited to participate by answering a questionnaire.
