“…Consistent with previous research on accent as a salient social marker for guiding children"s preferences Kinzler & Dejesus, 2013;Souza et al, 2013;Wagner et al, 2014), the findings of this study revealed accent is a highly salient marker for guiding children"s resource distribution decisions. Findings also revealed the effect of accent differed as a function of children"s age.…”

“…However, there still remains a lack of investigation regarding salient unfamiliar in-group/out-group recipients based upon social category differences. Despite literature demonstrating that accent is a highly salient social marker for children in guiding their preferences and inferences (Kinzler, Corriveau, & Harris, 2011;Kinzler & Dejesus, 2013;Souza et al, 2013;Wagner, Dunfield, & Rohrbeck, 2014), as well as a stronger guiding factor when pitted against race (Kinzler et al, 2009), accent has never been investigated in the context of children"s resource giving behaviour nor has the relative saliency of social categories by directly pitting them against one another.…”

“…For example, preschoolaged children choose to be friends with speakers of their own language rather than speakers of a different language and with native rather than nonnative speakers of their own language (Creel, 2017;Kinzler, Dupoux, & Spelke, 2007;Kinzler, Shutts, DeJesus, & Spelke, 2009;Souza, Byers-Heinlein, & Poulin-Dubois, 2013). They also preferentially trust information from native rather than non-native speakers (Kinzler, Corriveau, & Harris, 2011;Wagner, Dunfield, & Rohrbeck, 2014). Thus, the idea that language should be the basis for social judgments appears to be in place from an early age.…”

“…Likewise, young children are more likely to imitate an actor who speaks their language than a foreign speaker ( Buttelmann et al, 2013 ; Howard et al, 2015 ). Preschool aged children are also sensitive to more subtle distinctions, preferring speakers with their native accent to those with an unfamiliar accent even within their native language ( Kinzler et al, 2007 , 2011 ; Wagner et al, 2014b ).…”

“…However, the factors influencing children’s language discrimination are not yet well understood, and it is not known if brief experience with a language is enough to change children’s perception of unfamiliar languages. Previous research has found that preschool-aged children do use language and accent information to make inferences about a speaker but has also suggested that they may have difficulty recognizing unfamiliar languages (e.g., Stockmal et al, 1994 ; Kinzler et al, 2007 , 2011 ; Floccia et al, 2009 ; Wagner et al, 2014a , b ). Therefore, given that adults’ ability to identify unknown languages can be improved by even short amounts of experience with that language, does brief exposure to a new language also change children’s perception of that language?…”
