Increased interbrain synchronization of the left middle frontal gyrus benefits learning word formation rules in social interaction
Mechanisms influencing adult children’s willingness to use medical visit accompaniment services for older adults in Nanjing
Objective: In view of the current problems of insufficient service supply and low public awareness in the medical visit accompaniment service market, this study aimed to explore the key factors influencing adult children's willingness to use medical visit accompaniment services for older adults, so as to provide a theoretical basis for optimizing medical supportive services and resource allocation. Methods: A questionnaire survey of 638 adult chi…
The Effect of Disturbance on the Neural Mechanisms of Learning Words in a Novel Language
Research on the mental health of college students during the Covid-19 pandemic—A case study of universities in Nanjing
In response to recurring COVID-19 outbreaks, universities have generally implemented closed-off campus management strategies, subjecting students to multifaceted psychological stressors. This study aims to investigate the mental health status of university students in Nanjing during campus lockdowns, analyze distribution patterns across different academic years, majors, and family functioning backgrounds, and provide a reference for mental health…

Reversal rewards drive language switching during observational learning
Research on the cognitive neural mechanisms of language control often overlooks the role of rewards. To investigate how reversal rewards affect bilingual language switching during observational learning, we conducted a dual-brain electroencephalography (EEG) study. Participants, classified as direct learners or observers, performed a voluntary language-switching task under dynamic reward conditions. Our results demonstrated that both direct learn…
Neural correlates of compound head position in language control
Compound words consist of two or more words which combine to form a single word or phrase that acts as one. In English, the head of compound words is usually, but not always, the right-most root (e.g., “paycheck” is a noun because the head, “check,” is a noun). The current study explores the effects of head position on language control by examining language switching performance through electroencephalography (EEG). Twenty-one pairs of Chinese (L…
The role of morphological configuration in language control during bilingual production and comprehension
When bilinguals switch between their two languages, they often alternate between words whose formation rules in one language are different from the other (e.g., a noun-verb compound in one language may be a verb-noun compound in another language). In this study, we analyze behavioral performance and electrophysiological activity to examine the effects of morphological configuration on language control during production and comprehension. Chinese–…
The role of language control in cross-language phoneme processing
Aims: Cross-language interference studies of language control mainly focus on the lexical level, whereas language control may occur at the smallest unit phonemic level of language. In the present study, we examined the role of language control during cross-language phoneme processing. Design: Participants used one language to name pinyin or alphabet in the single-language blocks, and they used two languages for naming in the mixed-language blocks…
Should I focus on self-language actions or should I follow others? Cross-language interference effects in voluntary and cued language switching
We examined whether and how language produced by others influences self-language processes. This study addressed this issue by looking at effects of comprehension on language switching in cued and voluntary switching contexts. During voluntary language switching, Chinese-English bilinguals were more likely to repeat the language they previously used themselves than to repeat the language produced by others. Furthermore, during both voluntary and …
The effects of emotional context and exposure frequency on L2 contextual word learning
Objectives: An experiment was conducted to explore how emotional valence of contexts and exposure frequency of novel words affect second language (L2) contextual word learning. Methodology: Chinese native speakers who learned English in a formal classroom setting were asked to read English paragraphs with different emotional valence (positive, negative or neutral) across five different days. These paragraphs were embedded with pseudowords. During…

Research has assessed how language use differences between bilinguals (e.g., whether two languages are used approximately equally often or not) influence language processing. However, first (L1) and second (L2) language use might also differ within bilinguals, depending on the topic of conversation. For example, a Mandarin-English bilingual studying in North America or the UK might talk about exams in English but about their childhood in Mandarin…
The role of proactive control on subcomponents of language control
Effect of Cognitive Style on Language Control During Joint Language Switching
Role of top-down language control in bilingual production and comprehension
Aims: The present study was designed to investigate the role of language control during simultaneous production and comprehension. Design: Participants completed a set of language background and cognitive skills questionnaires and were randomly divided into pairs. Then, the pairs of participants were asked to finish a joint language switching task while their electroencephalogram was recorded. When one participant was naming pictures, the other o…
The effect of inhibitory control and its training on L1 and a new learned language switching
Aims: This study aimed to investigate how individuals’ inhibitory control (IC) ability affects language switching in the initial period of language learning. Design: Using a pretest/posttest design and event-related potential (ERP) methodology, we investigated the effect of IC on Chinese–English bilinguals during their language switching between Chinese (L1) and Korean (a language new to the participants, Lnew). All participants were required to …
Effects of sulfur-fumigation on the pharmacokinetics, metabolites and analgesic activity of Radix Paeoniae Alba
Modulatory role of inhibition during language switching
Aims: The present study adopted the electroencephalogram (EEG) technique to investigate whether inhibition advantage could modulate different language switches, regardless of the time spent on second language learning. Design: The inhibitory control (IC) ability of 80 low-proficient Chinese (L1)-English (L2) bilinguals was assessed by the Simon task. Half of these bilinguals were then subdivided into 20 high- and 20 low-IC participants to perform…
The effect of cognitive flexibility on task switching and language switching
Aims: The present study aimed at investigating whether cognitive flexibility plays the same role in language switching as in task switching. Design: Cognitive flexibility (CF) of 52 low proficiency Chinese (L1)–English (L2) bilinguals was assessed by the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task. These bilinguals were then subdivided in 26 high- and 26 low-CF participants. Both groups performed a task-switching (Simon switch task) and a language-switching task…
Effect of Cognitive Flexibility on Language Switching in Non-proficient Bilinguals
摘要: 采用WCST筛选出高低认知灵活性的非熟练汉英双语者, 分别使用图片命名和语义范畴判断任务考察认知灵活性对双语者语言转换的影响。结果发现:(1)高认知灵活性被试的双语转换代价是对称的, 其N2成分的平均波幅和峰值显著大于低认知灵活性被试, 低认知灵活性被试的转换代价是非对称的; (2)高认知灵活性被试在语言产生任务中, L2重复条件下N2的峰值显著大于L1重复条件, 出现L2重复优势效应; (3)在语言理解任务中, 高低认知灵活性被试在L1重复条件下的N2峰值显著大于L2重复条件, 两组均出现了L1重复优势效应。研究表明, 抑制控制能力在语言产生与理解的双语转换中起着重要的作用, 语言转换代价源于心理词典的字词识别系统之外
