Age of acquisition (AoA) refers to the age at which people learn a particular item and the AoA effect refers to the phenomenon that early-acquired items are processed more quickly and accurately than those acquired later. Over several decades, the AoA effect has been investigated using neuroscientific, behavioral, corpus and computational…

Declerck, Mathieu; Thoma, Aniella M.; Koch, Iring; Philipp, Andrea M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2015
Several, but not all, models of language control assume that highly proficient bilinguals implement little to no inhibition during bilingual language production. In the current study, we tested this assumption with a less equivocal marker of inhibition (i.e., n-2 language repetition costs) than previous language switching studies have. N-2…

Oganian, Y.; Korn, C. W.; Heekeren, H. R. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
Recent studies reported reductions of well-established biases in decision making under risk, such as the framing effect, during foreign language (FL) use. These modulations were attributed to the use of FL itself, which putatively entails an increase in emotional distance. A reduced framing effect in this setting, however, might also result from…

Witzel, Naoko Ouchi; Forster, Kenneth I. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2012
This article reports findings from 3 experiments examining whether 2nd language (L2) words are represented in episodic memory, as originally proposed by Jiang and Forster (2001). Experiment 1 was a direct replication of Jiang and Forster, testing highly proficient Chinese-English bilinguals. Masked translation priming was obtained in an episodic…

Muench, Kristin L.; Creel, Sarah C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013
Learners frequently experience phonologically inconsistent input, such as exposure to multiple accents. Yet, little is known about the consequences of phonological inconsistency for language learning. The current study examines vocabulary acquisition with different degrees of phonological inconsistency, ranging from no inconsistency (e.g., both…

Costa, Albert; Santesteban, Mikel; Ivanova, Iva – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2006
The authors report 4 experiments exploring the language-switching performance of highly proficient bilinguals in a picture-naming task. In Experiment 1, they tested the impact of language similarity and age of 2nd language acquisition on the language-switching performance of highly proficient bilinguals. Experiments 2, 3, and 4 assessed the…
