Annotation

This inquiry explored the two prominent theoretical accounts for the finding that noun production is slower and less accurate in bilinguals compared to monolinguals: weaker links and cross-language interference. The findings lend partial support to the weaker links account, and disclose cross-language facilitation rather than interference.
