Direct linkPrior, Anat; Kroll, Judith F.; Macwhinney, Brian – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2013
We investigated the influence of word class and translation ambiguity on cross-linguistic representation and processing. Bilingual speakers of English and Spanish performed translation production and translation recognition tasks on nouns and verbs in both languages. Words either had a single translation or more than one translation. Translation…

Yudes, Carolina; Macizo, Pedro; Bajo, Teresa – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2012
This study aimed to investigate the capacity of coordinating comprehension and production processes and the role of phonological working memory in simultaneous interpreting. To this end we evaluated the Articulatory Suppression (AS) effect in three groups of participants, monolingual controls, students of interpreting and professional…

Gruter, Theres; Crago, Martha – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2012
This article explores the widely documented difficulty with object clitics in the acquisition of French. The study investigates the effects of L1 transfer and processing limitations on the production and comprehension of object clitics in child L2 learners of French with different L1 backgrounds (Chinese, Spanish). The Spanish-speaking learners…

Areas da Luz Fontes, Ana B.; Schwartz, Ana I. – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2011
This study investigated the role of verbal working memory on bilingual lexical disambiguation. Spanish-English bilinguals read sentences that ended in either a cognate or noncognate homonym or a control word. Participants decided whether follow-up target words were related in meaning to the sentences. On critical trials, sentences biased the…

Hong, Li; MacWhinney, Brian – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2011
This paper reports three studies of bilingual lexical processing, using the semantic competitor priming (SCP) method of Lee and Williams (2001). Study 1 found a trend of within-language SCP effect for Chinese-English bilinguals with both higher and lower levels of vocabulary knowledge. There was also a cross-language SCP effect, but this was…

Buchweitz, Augusto; Mason, Robert A.; Hasegawa, Mihoko; Just, Marcel A. – Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2009
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to compare brain activation from native Japanese (L1) readers reading hiragana (syllabic) and kanji (logographic) sentences, and English as a second language (L2). Kanji showed more activation than hiragana in right-hemisphere occipito-temporal lobe areas associated with visuospatial…
