Cognitive and neurocognitive implications of language control and multilingualism

This section presents introductory remarks and important issues at the forefront of studying the cognitive control of multiple languages. These themes are subsequently elaborated on and tested in the following chapters which present original empirical data and/or explore new directions and implications for future research. Together, they shed light on the complicated nature of multilingual language control and demonstrate important implications for a research area which continues to take hold and establish itself as an effective way to study human cognition.
