Breaking Down the Bilingual Cost in Speech Production

Cross-language and cross-modal activation in hearing bimodal bilinguals

Emergent Bilingualism and Working Memory Development in School Aged Children
(Language Learning, 2016)The present research explores working memory (WM) development in monolingual as well as emergent bilingual children immersed in an L2 at school. Evidence from recent years suggests that bilingualism may boost domain-general ... -
How and When Does the Second Language Influence the Production of Native Speech Sounds: A Literature Review

Listeners beware: Speech production may be bad for learning speech sounds
(Journal of Memory and Language, 2016)Spoken language requires individuals to both perceive and produce speech. Because both processes access lexical and sublexical representations, it is commonly assumed that perception and production involve cooperative ... -
Mutual influences between native and non-native vowels in production: Evidence from short-term visual articulatory feedback training
(Journal of Phonetics, 2016)We studied mutual influences between native and non-native vowel production during learning, i.e., before and after short-term visual articulatory feedback training with non-native sounds. Monolingual French speakers were ... -
