Thirty years after fleeing from Poland to Denmark, 20 immigrants were enlisted in a study of
bilingual autobiographical memory. Ten “early immigrators” averaged 24 years old at the …

Current connectionist models of bilingual language processing have been largely restricted
to localist stationary models. To fully capture the dynamics of bilingual processing, we …
