The present study investigated the impact of bilingualism on efficiency of alerting, orienting and executive attention by means of the Lateralized Attention Network Test (LANT). Young adult…
The impact of bilingualism on the executive control and orienting networks of attention

The main objective of this article is to provide new evidence regarding the impact of bilingualism on the attentional system. We approach this goal by assessing the effects of bilingualism on the…
The bilingualism wars: Is the bilingual advantage out of (executive) control?

Abstract Whether bilingualism has an effect on the executive function of non-verbal representations is probably one of the most controversial issues in cognitive psychology and cognitive…

Findings support the existence of a bilingual advantage and indicate that different patterns of bilingual language use modulate the nature and extent of a cognitive control advantage in multilingual populations.

The topic of bilingualism and its influence on executive control development is an active field of research. Executive controls are high-level processes that affect an individual's ability to…
More similitudes than differences between bilinguals and monolinguals on speeded and demand-varying executive tasks

ABSTRACT We tested the presence and nature of bilingual advantage in early bilinguals, as compared to a sample of monolinguals with a similar social and cultural background. Participants performed…
The Effect of Bilingualism on Cognition : Evidence from Early and Late Bilinguals

Previous research demonstrates that bilinguals have an advatange over monolinguals in several extra-linguistic domains. Using the Simon Task, which putatively measures inhibitory control, Bialystok,…

It appears, therefore, that controlled processing is carried out more effectively by bilinguals and that bilingualism helps to offset age-related losses in certain executive processes.
Attention and inhibition in bilingual children: evidence from the dimensional change card sort task.
- PsychologyDevelopmental science

The conclusions are that bilinguals have better inhibitory control for ignoring perceptual information than monolinguals do but are not more skilled in representation, confirming the results of the original study.

In the analysis and control framework, Bialystok identifies analysis (representation) and control (selective attention) as components of language processing and has shown that one of these, control,…

The results showed that bilinguals resolved various types of response conflict faster than monolinguals and that this bilingual advantage generally increased with age, and a speculative interpretation of this pattern of results is offered in conclusion.
Bilingual Language Switching in Naming: Asymmetrical Costs of Language Selection

Abstract In an experimental study of language switching and selection, bilinguals named numerals in either their first or second language unpredictably. Response latencies (RTs) on switch trials…
Testing the Efficiency and Independence of Attentional Networks

A study with 40 normal adult subjects indicates that the ANT produces reliable single subject estimates of alerting, orienting, and executive function, and further suggests that the efficiencies of these three networks are uncorrelated.
How do highly proficient bilinguals control their lexicalization process? Inhibitory and language-specific selection mechanisms are both functional.
- LinguisticsJournal of experimental psychology. Learning, memory, and cognition

The authors report 4 experiments exploring the language-switching performance of highly proficient bilinguals in a picture-naming task and show symmetrical switching costs regardless of the age at which the L2 was learned and of the similarities of the 2 languages.
