Abstract
Contrary to the researcher's expectation, physical settings did not emerge as a primary determinant of the children's language choice. Further research needs to explore the role of settings in bilingual children's use of code-switching because the children in this study tended to associate languages with participants, and the participants were relatively constant across the settings.
