Bilinguals have been shown to outperform monolinguals at suppressing task-irrelevant
information and on overall speed during cognitive control tasks. Here, monolinguals' and …

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 …

Accounts of bilingual cognitive advantages suggest an associative link between
crosslinguistic competition and inhibitory control. We investigate this link by examining …

The Stroop task has become a popular paradigm in investigations of bilingual cognitive
control. While several studies show a cognitive control advantage for bilinguals, recent …

Previous research suggests that multilinguals' languages are constantly co-activated and
that experience managing this co-activation changes inhibitory control function. The present …

Bilinguals often outperform monolinguals on nonverbal tasks that require resolving conflict
from competing alternatives. The regular need to select a target language is argued to …

One purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that prevalent patterns of bilingual
language control lead to greater enhancement of the ability to resolve Stimulus-Stimulus …

Here we examined the role of bilingualism on cognitive inhibition using the Stroop Colour
Word task. Our hypothesis was that the frequency of use of a second language (L2) in the …

Executive control abilities and lexical access speed in Stroop performance were
investigated in English monolinguals and two groups of bilinguals (English–Chinese and …

Bilinguals have often, but not always, been found to outperform monolinguals on domain-
general attentional control. Inconsistent findings have been argued to stem, at least partly …
