أثر ازدواجية اللغة المبكرة على التحصيل الدراسي : دراسة ميدانية على بعض التلاميذ في المدارس الابتدائية بمدينة الجلفة

Abstract EN

This study aimed at identifying the effect of early bilingualism on educational attainment among pupils in some primary schools in the city of Djelfa, where the study sample consisted of 120 pupils divided equally between bilingual pupils and monolingual pupils.

The sample was divided into three grades: (3rd grade, 4th grade and 5th grade) the study objective was distributed into three hypotheses:  There are statistically significant differences between bilingual pupils and monolingual pupils in educational attainment in favour of bilingual pupils.

 There are no statistically significant differences between males and females with early bilingual in educational attainment.

 There are statistically significant differences between bilingual pupils and monolingual pupils in the Arabic language in favour of monolingual pupils.

After the distribution test of educational attainment by the Shapiro-wilk's test and Kolmogorov-Smirnov, it was found that the sample did not follow the normal distribution.

And for that reason, the (t) test was not applied.

So we analyzed the results using the alternative test (Mann-Whitney’s test).

After the result analysis, both of the first and second hypotheses were realised unlike the third one.

Finally, bilingualism has a direct impact on educational attainment.
