The neural mechanisms underlying one's own language production and the comprehension
of language produced by other speakers in daily communication remain elusive. Here, we …

Bilinguals may choose to speak a language either at their own will or in response to an
external demand, but the underlying neural mechanisms in the two contexts is poorly …

For multilingual individuals, adaptive goal-directed behavior as enabled by cognitive control
includes the management of two or more languages. This work used …

Bilinguals are known to switch language spontaneously in everyday conversations, even if
there are no external requirements to do so. However, in the laboratory setting, language …

When bilinguals intend to speak in their first (L1) or second language (L2) according to the
environment, a brain network involving cortical-subcortical regions is recruited to resolve …

For a bilingual human, every utterance requires a choice about which language to use. This
choice is commonly regarded as part of general executive control, engaging prefrontal and …

Bilinguals are remarkable at language control—switching between languages only when
they want. However, language control in production can involve switch costs. That is …

A key question in bilingual language production research is how bilingual individuals control
the use of their two languages. The psycholinguistic literature concerning language control …

Bilinguals require a high degree of cognitive control to select the language intended for
speaking and inhibit the unintended. Previous neuroimaging studies have not teased apart …

We examined whether and how language produced by others influences self-language
processes. This study addressed this issue by looking at effects of comprehension on …
