The concept of inhibition in bilingual control.

M Declerck, I Koch - Psychological Review, 2023 - psycnet.apa.org
To achieve fluent language processing as a bilingual, a dominant theoretical framework

Research on bilingualism as discovery science

CA Navarro-Torres, AL Beatty-Martínez, JF Kroll… - Brain and language, 2021 - Elsevier
An important aim of research on bilingualism is to understand how the brain adapts to the
demands of using more than one language. In this paper, we argue that pursuing such an …

Which bilinguals reverse language dominance and why?

M Declerck, D Kleinman, TH Gollan - Cognition, 2020 - Elsevier
When naming pictures in mixed-language blocks, bilinguals sometimes exhibit reversed
language dominance effects. These have been attributed to proactive inhibitory control of …

Cognitive control in bilinguals: Proficiency and code-switching both matter

S Kheder, E Kaan - Cognition, 2021 - Elsevier
We examined the impact of bilingualism as a construct of both language usage and
language proficiency on the effectiveness of cognitive control. In particular, we asked …

The bilingual structural connectome: Dual-language experiential factors modulate distinct cerebral networks

D Fedeli, N Del Maschio, S Sulpizio, J Rothman… - Brain and …, 2021 - Elsevier
Bilingualism is a natural laboratory for studying whether the brain's structural connectome is
influenced by different aspects of language experience. However, evidence on how distinct …

The effects of habitual code-switching in bilingual language production on cognitive control

X Han, W Li, R Filippi - Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2022 - cambridge.org
