Language experience modulates bilingual language control: The effect of proficiency, age of acquisition, and exposure on language switching.

Acta Psychologica, 2019
The ability to selectively access two languages characterises the bilingual everyday experience. Previous studies showed the role of second language (L2) proficiency, as a proxy for dominance, on language control.

Qualitative differences between bilingual language control and executive control: evidence from task switching

Frontiers in Psychology, 2012
Previous research has shown that highly-proficient bilinguals have comparable switch costs in both directions when they switch between languages (L1 and L2), the so called ‘symmetrical switch cost’ effect. Interestingly, the same symmetry is also present

Inhibitory control training reveals a common neurofunctional basis for generic executive functions and language switching in bilinguals

BMC Neuroscience, 2021
Background The neural networks underpinning language control and domain-general executive functions overlap in bilinguals, but existing evidence is mainly correlative.

Why and When Are Evidence‐Based Interventions Adopted in Paediatric Supportive Care? A Qualitative Exploration of the Determinants of Photobiomodulation Implementation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...

Recognizing the Effects of Language Mode on the Cognitive Advantages of Bilingualism

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
For bilinguals, it is argued that a cognitive advantage can be linked to the constant management and need for conflict resolution that occurs when the two languages are co-activated (Bialystok, 2015). Language mode (Grosjean, 1998, 2001) is a significant

Dexamethasone for Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting Prevention in Pediatric Patients: International Consensus

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An international Delphi panel of experts developed consensus statements to delineate the circumstances where the risks of dexamethasone as an antiemetic do and do not outweigh its benefits. Procedure Experts in supportive care of pediatric patients were invited to participate.

Neural basis of bilingual language control

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2018
Acquiring and speaking a second language increases demand on the processes of language control for bilingual as compared to monolingual speakers. Language control for bilingual speakers involves the ability to keep the two languages separated to avoid ...

Neural Correlates of Vocal Pitch Compensation in Individuals Who Stutter

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020
Stuttering is a disorder that impacts the smooth flow of speech production and is associated with a deficit in sensorimotor integration. In a previous experiment, individuals who stutter were able to vocally compensate for pitch shifts in their auditory ...

An algebraic basis for specifying and enforcing access control in security systems [PDF]

, 2000
Security services in a multi-user environment are often based on access control mechanisms. Static aspects of an access control policy can be formalised using abstract algebraic models.

Attention control comparisons with SLT for people with aphasia following stroke: methodological concerns raised following a systematic review [PDF]

, 2018
Objective: Attention control comparisons in trials of stroke rehabilitation require care to minimize the risk of comparison choice bias. We compared the similarities and differences in SLT and social support control interventions for people with aphasia.
