Language ' control ' in ' interpreters ' and ' bilinguals ' ' 1 ' Running head : Language control in bilinguals and interpreters
The present study explored the relation between language control and non-verbal cognitive control in different bilingual populations. We compared monolinguals, Dutch-French unbalanced bilinguals, balanced bilinguals, and interpreters on the Simon task and Attention Network Test (ANT). All bilingual groups showed a smaller congruency effect in the Simon task than the monolingual group. They were...
متن کاملSimultaneous Bilinguals and Flege’s Speech Learning Model
The applicability of Flege’s Speech Learning Model (SLM) to simultaneous bilinguals is examined in related experiments on the acquisition of the production and perception of the voicing contrast in simultaneous French-English bilinguals. The results show that the SLM can account for the data providing account is taken of the degree of bilinguals’ exposure to each language.
متن کاملRevisiting f0 range production in Japanese-English simultaneous bilinguals
This study reports an experiment in which 10 Japanese-American English simultaneous bilinguals (5 males, 5 females; all undergrads at the University of California, Berkeley) were recorded performing comparable reading tasks in their two languages. The study builds on a relatively new approach to measuring f0 range proposed by Patterson 2000 and operationalised in Mennen et al. 2012 that compute...
متن کاملBimodal bilinguals co-activate both languages during spoken comprehension.
Bilinguals have been shown to activate their two languages in parallel, and this process can often be attributed to overlap in input between the two languages. The present study examines whether two languages that do not overlap in input structure, and that have distinct phonological systems, such as American Sign Language (ASL) and English, are also activated in parallel. Hearing ASL-English b...
متن کاملMasked translation priming effects with highly proficient simultaneous bilinguals.
One essential issue for models of bilingual memory organization is to what degree the representation from one of the languages is shared with the other language. In this study, we examine whether there is a symmetrical translation priming effect with highly proficient, simultaneous bilinguals. We conducted a masked priming lexical decision experiment with cognate and noncognate translation equi...
