Executive function predicts artificial language learning
Previous research suggests executive function (EF) advantages among bilinguals compared
to monolingual peers, and these advantages are generally attributed to experience …

Whole-language and item-specific control in bilingual language production.
The current study investigated the scope of bilingual language control differentiating
between whole-language control involving control of an entire lexicon specific to 1 language …

Bilingualism and age are continuous variables that influence executive function
S Incera, CT McLennan - Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition, 2018 - Taylor & Francis
We analyzed the effects of bilingualism and age on executive function. We examined these
variables along a continuum, as opposed to dichotomizing them. We investigated the impact …

Bilingualism contributes to reserve and working memory efficiency: Evidence from structural and functional neuroimaging
This study compared brain and behavioral outcomes for monolingual and bilingual older
adults who reported no cognitive or memory problems on three types of memory that …

Heritage-culture images disrupt immigrants' second-language processing through triggering first-language interference
For bicultural individuals, visual cues of a setting's cultural expectations can activate
associated representations, switching the frames that guide their judgments. Research …

The impact of allophony versus contrast on speech perception
The perceptual consequences of phonological contrast have long been of interest to
phonologists and phoneticians. In Trubetzkoy's well-known Grundzüge der Phonologie …

How bilinguals listen in noise: Linguistic and non-linguistic factors
Bilinguals are known to perform worse than monolinguals on speech-in-noise tests.
However, the mechanisms underlying this difference are unclear. By varying the amount of …

The multilingual lexicon: The cognitive and neural basis of lexical comprehension and production in two or more languages
Recent studies have shown that when bilinguals or multilinguals read written words, listen to
spoken words, or plan words that they intend to speak in one language alone, information in …

The role of crosslinguistic influence in multilingual processing: Lexicon versus syntax
S Lago, M Mosca, A Stutter Garcia - Language Learning, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Multilingual research could offer a unique perspective on how the languages already
acquired by a person affect the online processing of a new language. But it is currently …

Cross-modal and cross-language activation in bilinguals reveals lexical competition even when words or signs are unheard or unseen
We exploit the phenomenon of cross-modal, cross-language activation to examine the
dynamics of language processing. Previous within-language work showed that seeing a …
