Previous research has shown that bilingual speakers have higher levels of cognitive control
than comparable monolinguals, especially at older ages. The present study investigates a …

Brain white matter tissue composition can be quantified using Diffusion Tensor Imaging
(DTI) and Magnetization Transfer Imaging (MTI). Fractional Anisotropy (FA), derived from …

Bilingualism represents an interesting model of possible experience-dependent alterations
in brain structure. The current study examines whether interhemispheric adaptations in brain …

Learning and using additional languages can result in structural changes in the brain.
However, the time course of these changes, as well as the factors the predict them, are still …

Bilingualism affects the structure of the brain in adults, as evidenced by experience-
dependent grey and white matter changes in brain structures implicated in language …

The brain has an extraordinary ability to functionally and physically change or reconfigure its
structure in response to environmental stimulus, cognitive demand, or behavioral …

Abstract Language reorganisation following stroke has been studied widely. However, while
studies of brain activation and grey matter examined both hemispheres, studies of white …

Brain plasticity associated with second language acquisition and learning has been a focus
of research in the past two decades. Recent research on cognitive neuroscience has …

Brain alterations are associated with reading and language difficulties in older children, but
little research has investigated relationships between early language skills and brain white …

The technique of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been used to investigate alterations in
