This chapter focusses on models of language production and the temporal organization of the processes involved in lexical access. Albert Costa contributed significantly to advancing our understanding of lexical access. Through the investigation of multilingual speakers, he added an important… read more
In Papiamento-Dutch bilingual speech, the nominal construction is a potential ‘conflict site’ if there is an adjective from one language and a noun from the other. Adjective position is pre-nominal in Dutch (cf. rode wijn ‘red wine’) but post-nominal in Papiamento (cf. biña kòrá ‘wine red’). We… read more

Abstract
The present paper looks at semantic interference and gender congruency effects during bilingual picture-word naming. According to Costa, Miozzo & Caramazza (1999), only the activation from lexical nodes within a language is considered during lexical selection. If this is… read more
Studies in bilingualism have shown that words activate form-similar neighbors in both first (L1) and second (L2) languages. Accordingly, we hypothesized that the degree of form similarity between L1–L2 word pairs causes a proportional amount of prosodic transfer in L2 speech production. Thus,… read more
This paper reports a syllable monitoring experiment that examines the role of
segmental phonetic information in Dutch. Participants were presented with
lists of spoken words and were required to detect auditorily specified targets
that matched or did not match the initial syllable of the spoken… read more
Two experiments are reported that tested whether syllables can be primed in English speech production using a (masked) priming paradigm. In Experiment 1, we presented masked syllable primes for 45 ms. In Experiment 2, primes were presented for either 45 ms or 105 ms under unmasked conditions. In… read more
