Does the output form of inhibition of return operate at or after the bottleneck
Inhibition of return (IOR) refers to the longer reaction times (RTs) to targets presented at previously cued, fixated or attended locations. It has been suggested that there are two distinct forms of IOR. The input form, generated when the reflexive oculomotor system is suppressed, affects the sensory/perceptual processing. The output form, generated when the reflexive oculomotor system is not suppressed, biases responding. It has been demonstrat…

What cognitive processes are likely to be exercised by bilingualism and does this exercise lead to extra-linguistic cognitive benefits
I begin with some personal history that illuminates my background and my interest in the questions posed in this article’s title (What cognitive processes are likely to be exercised by bilingualism and does this exercise lead to extra-linguistic cognitive benefits?). A brief overview of historical interest in these questions follows, with emphasis on the landmark study by Peel and Lambert (1962) and the seminal ideas in Bialystok’s (2001) book: B…
Does multilingualism affect the incidence of Alzheimer’s disease
It has been suggested that the cognitive requirements associated with bi- and multilingual processing provide a form of mental exercise that, through increases in cognitive reserve and brain fitness, may delay the symptoms of cognitive failure associated with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. We collected data on a country-by-country basis that might shed light on this suggestion. Using the best available evidence we could find, th…

The Influence of Reading Skills on the Missing‐Letter Effect Among Elementary School Students
When skilled readers search for a target letter while reading for comprehension, they miss the target letter more often when it is embedded in high‐frequency function words than in less frequent content words. The magnitude of this “missing‐letter‐effect” (MLE) was investigated among 180 first‐ to fifth‐grade students as a function of their reading skills as assessed with the reading subtest of the Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT‐3). Results re…

Bilingualism, Aging, and Cognitive Control
Previous work has shown that bilingualism is associated with more effective controlled processing in children; the assumption is that the constant management of 2 competing languages enhances executive functions (E. Bialystok, 2001). The present research attempted to determine whether this bilingual advantage persists for adults and whether bilingualism attenuates the negative effects of aging on cognitive control in older adults. Three studies a…

The Effects of Scene Inversion on Change Blindness
In two experiments, participants searched for a difference between two views of a scene. In Experiment 1, the authors extended the change-blindness findings from previous work by R. A. Rensink, J. K. O'Regan, and J. J. Clark (1997), which used an experimenter-induced global transient, to a less artificial situation in which participants searched for a difference in a pair of photographic images presented simultaneously. To examine the idea that m…

Visual dominance
In many situations, visual input tends to dominate other modalities in perceptual and memorial reports and in speeded responses. Visual dominance appears to be related to the relatively weak capacity of visual inputs to alert the organism to their occurrence. In response to this reduced alerting, subjects tend to keep their attention tuned to the visual modality. This bias works via prior entry to allow vision to control the mechanisms that subse…
