Declerck, Mathieu; Koch, Iring; Philipp, Andrea M. – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2012
Stimuli used in cued language switching studies typically consist of digits or pictures. However, the comparability between both stimulus types remains unclear. In the present study, we directly compared digit and picture naming in a German-English language switching experiment. Because digits represent a semantic group and contain many cognates,…

Wang, Xin; Forster, Kenneth I. – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2010
Four experiments are reported which were designed to test hypotheses concerning the asymmetry of masked translation priming. Experiment 1 confirmed the presence of L2-L1 priming with a semantic categorization task and demonstrated that this effect was restricted to exemplars. Experiment 2 showed that the translation priming effect was not due to…

Bedore, Lisa M.; Pena, Elizabeth D.; Summers, Connie L.; Boerger, Karin M.; Resendiz, Maria D.; Greene, Kai; Bohman, Thomas M.; Gillam, Ronald B. – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2012
The purpose of this study was to determine if different language measures resulted in the same classifications of language dominance and proficiency for a group of bilingual pre-kindergarteners and kindergarteners. Data were analyzed for 1029 Spanish-English bilingual pre-kindergarteners who spanned the full range of bilingual language…

Gathercole, Virginia C. Mueller; Moawad, Ruba Abdelmatloub – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2010
This study examines L1-L2 interaction in semantic categorization in early and late L2 learners. Word categories that overlapped but were not identical in Arabic and English were tested. Words always showed a "wider" range of application in one language, "narrower" in the other. Three types of categories--"classical", "radial", and…

Baten, Kristof; Hofman, Fabrice; Loeys, Tom – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2011
This study investigates how categorial (word class) semantics influences cross-linguistic interactions when reading in L2. Previous homograph studies paid little attention to the possible influence of different word classes in the stimulus material on cross-linguistic activation. The present study examines the word recognition performance of…

Athanasopoulos, Panos – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2009
A number of recent studies demonstrate that bilinguals with languages that differ in grammatical and lexical categories may shift their cognitive representation of those categories towards that of monolingual speakers of their second language. The current paper extended that investigation to the domain of colour in Greek-English bilinguals with…

Sera, Maria D. – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2008
Studies of copular forms are extremely relevant to issues in philosophy, psychology, and linguistics. Psychologists have recently argued that the most distinctive aspect of human language is its combinatorial nature (e.g., Gentner, 2003; Spelke, 2003). They argue that this linguistic component might be what separates human from animal cognition.…
