Annotation

This sub-study of The project Early Language Learning in Europe (ELLiE) explores the influence of school-external factors on childrens' listening and reading abilities in the 4th year of formal foreign language (FL) education. More particularly, this covers interaction and cognate linguistic distance, exposure, parental professional FL use, and parental educational level.
