When is a First Language More Emotional? Psychophysiological Evidence from Bilingual Speakers
This chapter will review recent studies measuring physiological aspects of bilinguals’ emotional response to stimuli presented in speakers’ first and second language. We also introduce a new theory, ‘the emotional contexts of learning theory’, developed to account for findings from existing studies of bilingualism and emotion. We then evaluate the data consistent with this theory, the new predictions it makes, and the overall prospects for integr…
When Personality and Culture Clash
Because humans need both autonomy and interdependence, persons with either an extreme collectivist orientation (allocentrics) or extreme individualist values (idiocentrics) may be at risk for possession of some features of psychopathology. Is an extreme personality style a risk factor primarily when it conflicts with the values of the surrounding society? Individualism-collectivism scenarios and a battery of clinical and personality scales were a…
Taboo words and reprimands elicit greater autonomic reactivity in a first language than in a second language
Second language speakers commonly acknowledge that taboo terms can be uttered with greater ease in their second language (L2) than in their first language (L1). To investigate this phenomenon psychophysiologically, 32 Turkish–English bilinguals rated a variety of stimuli for pleasantness in Turkish (L1) and English (L2) while skin conductance was monitored via fingertip electrodes. Participants demonstrated greater autonomic arousal to taboo word…
Effects of Bilingual and Monolingual Presentations and Time on Concept- and Language-Matching Tasks
Balanced Turkish-English bilingual participants viewed word pairs, presented both monolingually (English-English or Turkish-Turkish) or bilingually (English-Turkish or Turkish-English) and both for short and long durations. They made decisions on whether the simultaneously presented words in a pair were in the same language or not, or whether they denoted the same concept or not. In the short presentation condition, we found no evidence for subli…
