In this review, we examine how structural priming has been used to investigate the
representation of first and second language syntactic structures in bilinguals. Most …

Within the cognitive sciences, most researchers assume that it is the job of linguists to
investigate how language is represented, and that they do so largely by building theories …

According to Hartsuiker et al.'s (2004) shared-syntax account bilinguals share syntactic
representations across languages whenever these representations are similar enough. But …

Studies on cross-linguistic syntactic priming suggest that bilinguals can share syntactic
representations across languages (eg, Hartsuiker, Pickering, & Veltkamp, 2004). But how …

Four cross-linguistic structural priming experiments with multilinguals investigated whether
syntactic representations for different languages are shared or separate and whether such …

Previous research suggests that English-speaking children comprehend agent–patient verb
passives earlier than experiencer–theme verb passives (Maratsos, Fox, Becker, & Chalkley …

In a corpus analysis of spontaneous speech Jaeger and Snider (2007) found that the
strength of structural priming is correlated with verb alternation bias. This finding is …

Theories of how people construct linguistic form during production are largely based on
English and closely related languages. We report three experiments that used a structural …

Abstract In 1990, Bock and Loebell found that passives (eg, The 747 was radioed by the
airport's control tower) can be primed by intransitive locatives (eg, The 747 was landing by …

Since seminal work in the late '80s the general consensus in the literature is that children
who are regularly exposed to two languages from birth or soon after can acquire them as …
