Todd A Gibson,D Kimbrough Oller,Linda Jarmulowicz et al.
Todd A Gibson et al.
Adults and children learning a second language show difficulty accessing expressive vocabulary that appears accessible receptively in their first language (L1). We call this discrepancy the receptive-expressive gap. Kindergarten Spanish (L1...

Bilinguals are better able to perceive speech-in-noise in their native compared to their non-native language. This benefit is thought to be due to greater use of higher-level, linguistic context in the native language. Previous studies show...

Brysbaert and Duyck (2009) suggest that it is time to abandon the Revised Hierarchical Model (Kroll and Stewart, 1994) in favor of connectionist models such as BIA+ (Dijkstra and Van Heuven, 2002) that more accurately account for the recent...
Processing subject-verb agreement in a second language depends on proficiency [0.03%]
习得第二语言的主谓一致依赖于掌握水平

Noriko Hoshino
Subject-verb agreement is a computation that is often difficult to execute perfectly in the first language (L1) and even more difficult to produce skillfully in a second language (L2). In this study, we examined the way in which bilingual s...
Morphological facilitation for regular and irregular verb formations in native and non-native speakers: Little evidence for two distinct mechanisms [0.03%]
本族语者和非本族语者的规则动词和不规则动词形态学生成的促进效应：两种不同机制作用的确凿证据不足
Laurie Beth Feldman,Aleksandar Kostić,Dana M Basnight-Brown et al.
Laurie Beth Feldman et al.
The authors compared performance on two variants of the primed lexical decision task to investigate morphological processing in native and non-native speakers of English. They examined patterns of facilitation on present tense targets. Prim...
Japanese and English sentence reading comprehension and writing systems: An fMRI study of first and second language effects on brain activation [0.03%]
日语和英语句子阅读理解及书写系统：第一语言和第二语言对脑激活影响的fMRI研究
Augusto Buchweitz,Robert A Mason,Mihoko Hasegawa et al.
Augusto Buchweitz et al.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to compare brain activation from Japanese readers reading hiragana (syllabic) and kanji (logographic) sentences, and English as a second language (L2). Kanji showed more activation than ...
Age of first bilingual language exposure as a new window into bilingual reading development [0.03%]

Ioulia Kovelman
How does age of first bilingual language exposure affect reading development in children learning to read in both of their languages? Is there a reading advantage for monolingual English children who are educated in bilingual schools? We st...
Bimodal bilingualism [0.03%]
双峰型二语习得理论
Karen Emmorey,Helsa B Borinstein,Robin Thompson et al.
Karen Emmorey et al.
Speech-sign or "bimodal" bilingualism is exceptional because distinct modalities allow for simultaneous production of two languages. We investigated the ramifications of this phenomenon for models of language production by eliciting languag...
Exploring cross-linguistic vocabulary effects on brain structures using voxel-based morphometry [0.03%]
利用基于体素的形态测量法探索词汇跨语言对脑结构的影响
D W Green,J Crinion,C J Price
D W Green
Given that there are neural markers for the acquisition of a non-verbal skill, we review evidence of neural markers for the acquisition of vocabulary. Acquiring vocabulary is critical to learning one's native language and to learning other ...
