Age of second language acquisition affects nonverbal conflict processing in children : an fMRI study [PDF]
, 2014 Background: In their daily communication, bilinguals switch between two languages, a process that involves the selection of a target language and minimization of interference from a nontarget language. Previous studies have uncovered the neural structure

Language control in different contexts: the behavioural ecology of bilingual speakers
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 This paper proposes that different experimental contexts (single or dual language contexts) permit different neural loci at which words in the target language can be selected.

A Model of Cooperative Threads [PDF]
, 2008 We develop a model of concurrent imperative programming with threads. We focus on a small imperative language with cooperative threads which execute without interruption until they terminate or explicitly yield control.

The Differential Role of Executive Functions in the Cognitive Control of Language Switching
Languages, 2020 Studies of bilingual speech production suggest that different executive functions (EFs) contribute to the cognitive control of language production. However, no study has simultaneously examined the relationship between different EFs and language control ...

Proactive and Reactive Language Control in the Bilingual Brain. [PDF]
Brain Sci, 2019 The current experiment investigated bilingual language control within the dual mechanisms framework. In an fMRI investigation of morphosyntactic rule production, the presence or absence of target language cues was manipulated to investigate the neural ...
