This chapter discusses the use of functional neuroimaging to investigate second language
(L2) brain organization. The chapter begins with some historical perspective, including an …

Over the past decade, functional neuroimaging technologies such as positron emission
tomography and functional magnetic resonance imaging have enabled neuroscientists to …

Recent advances in our understanding of the neural bases of the brain's structure (s) have
critically shaped research on second language (L2) and bilingualism. The emergence and …

This chapter offers a narrative review of the most relevant results so far achieved in the field
of the cerebral basis of multilingualism using positron emission tomography (PET) and …

In this paper, we review issues in bilingual language comprehension in the light of functional
magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and event-related brain potential (ERP) data. Next, we …

Functional neuroimaging, used in conjunction with experimental cognitive tasks, has been
extremely successful in establishing functional specialization as a principle of brain …

The Rodriguez-Fornells, Rotte, Heinze, Nösselt and Münte (2002) paper published in
Nature,“Brain potential and functional MRI evidence for how to handle two languages with …

Bilingual individuals need effective mechanisms to prevent interference between their
languages. Using event-related brain potentials (ERPs) and functional magnetic resonance …

The objective of the study was to explore differences in regional fMRI activation topography
and lateralization between semantic and phonological tasks performed in English and …

This review article provides an overview of the neural correlates of second language (L2)
morphosyntactic processing of the past 20 years. Morphosyntactic processing is of great …
