Titone, Debra, Julie Mercier, Aruna Sudarshan, Irina Pivneva, Jason Gullifer and Shari Baum 2021 Spoken word processing in bilingual older adults: Assessing within- and cross-language competition using the visual world taskBi-/Multilingualism and the Declining Brain, Pliatsikas, Christos, Ana Inés Ansaldo and Toms Voits (eds.), pp. 578–610 | Article
We investigated whether bilingual older adults experience within- and cross-language competition during spoken word recognition similarly to younger adults matched on age of second language (L2) acquisition, objective and subjective L2 proficiency, and current L2 exposure. In a visual world… read more

History-inspired reflections on the Bilingual Advantages HypothesisGrowing Old with Two Languages: Effects of Bilingualism on Cognitive Aging, Bialystok, Ellen and Margot D. Sullivan (eds.), pp. 265–295 | Chapter

This debate has played out most excitedly with respect to younger adults, but it has also occurred with respect to… read more
Vingron, Naomi, Jason Gullifer, Julia Hamill, Jakob R.E. Leimgruber and Debra Titone 2017 Using eye tracking to investigate what bilinguals notice about linguistic landscape images: A preliminary studyMethodology in Linguistic Landscape Research, Blackwood, Robert (ed.), pp. 226–245 | Article

While much is known about LLs descriptively, less is… read more

We address a core question about idioms relevant to formulaic language generally: are the figurative meanings of idioms directly retrieved or compositionally built? An understanding of this question has been previously obscured by the fact that idioms vary in ways that can affect processing, and… read more
