Kolers, Paul A.; Brison, Susan J. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1984
Questions the theory of a common conceptual code for knowledge and shows that some of the claims for bilingual equivalence may be accommodated by notions of strategy, set, and skill. Suggests that means-specific representations may provide as plausible an account of knowledge as appeals to a common code do. (EKN)

Snodgrass, Joan Gay – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1984
Considers the use of picture-word and bilingualism research together to look for parallels at both the theoretical and empirical levels. Describes some of the criteria that have been used in both fields to infer common or separate codes and points out how conclusions based on the various criteria proposed can differ. (EKN)

Scarborough, Don L.; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1984
Discusses research which shows that bilinguals in a word recognition task are able to process the words of a language in a language-specific manner without any influence of their knowledge of the surface or conceptual represenations of words in the other language. (EKN)

Potter, Mary C.; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1984
Considers two hypotheses about the association between equivalent words in a bilingual's two languages: (1) word association, which hypothesizes a direct association between words in the two languages and (2) concept mediation, which proposes the only connection between the two languages is via an underlying conceptual system. Reports on…

Watkins, Michael J.; Peynircioglu, Zehra F. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1983
Two experiments are reported testing bilinguals' recall of words presented in one of two languages and under several conditions. Performance was best when the individuals had seen the word itself, less good when they had seen the other language's equivalent, and equally or least good when they had seen neither. (MSE)

Magiste, Edith – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1979
A cross-section method was used to study the developmental changes in elementary decoding and encoding processes of 163 Swedish-German bilingual students, whose length of residence in Sweden varied. It was demonstrated that decoding in two languages, expressed in terms of reaction time, develops faster than encoding. (SW)
