Repetition is a central phenomenon of behavior, and researchers have made extensive use
of it to illuminate psychological functioning. In the language sciences, a ubiquitous form of …

In this review, we examine how structural priming has been used to investigate the
representation of first and second language syntactic structures in bilinguals. Most …

We performed an exhaustive meta-analysis of 73 peer-reviewed journal articles on syntactic
priming from the seminal Bock (1986) paper through 2013. Extracting the effect size for each …

Within the cognitive sciences, most researchers assume that it is the job of linguists to
investigate how language is represented, and that they do so largely by building theories …

A series of discoveries in the past two decades has changed the way we think about
bilingualism and its implications for language and cognition. One is that both of the …

According to Hartsuiker et al.'s (2004) shared-syntax account bilinguals share syntactic
representations across languages whenever these representations are similar enough. But …

Studies on cross-linguistic syntactic priming suggest that bilinguals can share syntactic
representations across languages (eg, Hartsuiker, Pickering, & Veltkamp, 2004). But how …

Four cross-linguistic structural priming experiments with multilinguals investigated whether
syntactic representations for different languages are shared or separate and whether such …

Structural priming has played an important role in research on both monolingual and
bilingual language production. However, studies of bilingual priming have mainly used …

Bilinguals appear to have shared syntactic representations for similar constructions between
languages but retain distinct representations for noncognate translation-equivalents …
