as well as emergent bilingual children immersed in an L2 at school. Evidence from
recent years suggests that bilingualism may boost domain-general ...

Bilingualism has been argued to benefit executive functioning. However, recent research suggests that this advantage may stem from uncontrolled factors or incorrectly matched samples. In this study we test the effects of ...
Consonantal overlap effects in a perceptual matching task
(Experimental Brain Research, 2016)
This study investigates the processing of letter
position coding by exploring whether or not two explicitly
presented words that share the same consonants, but that
differ in their vowels, exert mutual interference more ...
