In this study we address the question of how lexical selection is achieved by bilingual
speakers during speech production. Specifically, we test whether there is competition …

Six experiments examined aspects of lexical access for nouns and verbs, in native English
speakers and Chinese-English bilinguals, comparing a new auditory paradigm called" cued …

We considered the role of orthography and task-related processing mechanisms in the
activation of morphologically related complex words during bilingual word processing. So …

Abstract Language non-selective lexical access in bilinguals has been established mainly
using tasks requiring explicit language processing. Here, we show that bilinguals activate …

Participants' eye movements were monitored as they followed spoken instructions to click on
a pictured object with a computer mouse (eg,''click on the net''). Participants were slower to …

Converging behavioral and neuroimaging evidence suggests parallel activation of native
(L1) and second (L2) language codes in bilinguals, with the modulation of the N400 as the …

Bilingualism can serve both as a means for studying general cognitive and linguistic
processing and as an end in itself for understanding how the human brain accommodates …

This study investigated the time course of activation of orthographic information in spoken
word recognition with two visual world eye-tracking experiments in a task where second …

When bilingual speakers use two languages in the same utterance, this is called code-
switching. Previous research indicates that bilinguals' likelihood to code-switch is enhanced …

Bilinguals perceptually accommodate speech variation across languages, but to what extent
this flexibility depends on bilingual experience is uncertain. One account suggests that …
