AB - The purpose of this study was to analyze studies implementing interventions for preschoolers from multi-cultural families. Among peer-reviewed journals published from 2009 to 2014, a total of 23 studies were identified that met the criteria established for inclusion in this review. These studies were analyzed in terms of the characteristics of participants, the research method and settings, intervention procedures, and intervention findings. First, results of this analysis indicated that participants of 11 studies were preschoolers from multi-cultural families and showed delays in language, social, or emotional areas. Among 12 studies which mentioned the degree of developmental delays, 6 studies used standardized tools to identify the degree of delays. Second, 23 studies were divided with 3 trends: 8 studies examined the interactions between preschoolers and their parents, 9 studies focused on the language development, 6 studies focused on social or emotional development. According to research methods, 23 studies were divided with 4 qualitative studies, 18 experimental studies, and 1 single-subject design research. Third, only 1 study implemented intervention fidelity and 8 studies considered the characteristics of the preschoolers‘ cultural differences into intervention program. Last, 3 studies mentioned social validity and 4 studies conducted inter-observer reliability. Based on these results, discussions and implications were suggested in terms of implementing interventions for young children with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
