  • Effects of healthy ageing and bilingualism on attention networks

    Open AccessRoksana Markiewicz, Foyzul Rahman et al.ARTICLEBilingualism Language and Cognition2025Cited by: 1References: 94

    Both ageing and bilingualism can have positive as well as adverse cognitive effects. We investigated their combined impact on subcomponents of attention. We used the Attention Network Task to examine alerting, orienting, executive control and task-switching costs. Group comparisons revealed age-related declines for alerting alongside benefits for executive control, for mono- and bilinguals alike. For orienting, age-related decline was more pronou…

  • Bilingualism and ageing independently impact on language processing

    Open AccessEunice G Fernandes, Katrien Segaert et al.ARTICLEBilingualism Language and Cognition2025References: 73

    To examine the combined effects of ageing and bilingualism in language processing, we tested young and older mono- and bilingual speakers in L1 comprehension and production. In Experiment 1, bilinguals were slower to detect words than monolinguals in sentences with a low-constraint context, but not when a high-constraint context was provided. Older adults tended to outperform younger adults in high-constraint sentences. In Experiment 2, older spe…

  • Competition between form-related words in bilingual sentence reading

    Open AccessMaud Pélissier, Dag Haugland et al.ARTICLEBilingualism Language and Cognition2023

    Sentence reading involves constant competition between lexical candidates. Previous research with monolinguals has shown that the neighbours of a read word are inhibited, making their retrieval as a subsequent target more difficult, but the duration of this interference may depend on reading skills. In this study, we examined neighbour priming effects in sentence reading among proficient Norwegian–English bilinguals reading in their L2. We invest…

  • Processing of Phonemic Consonant Length

    Open AccessSandra Kotzor, Allison Wetterlin et al.ARTICLELanguage and Speech2016Cited by: 1References: 62

    Six cross-modal lexical decision tasks with priming probed listeners’ processing of the geminate–singleton contrast in Bengali, where duration alone leads to phonemic contrast ([pata] ‘leaf’ vs. [pat:a] ‘whereabouts’), in order to investigate the phonological representation of consonantal duration in the lexicon. Four form-priming experiments (auditory fragment primes and visual targets) were designed to investigate listeners’ sensitivity to segm…

  • Tonal alternations in Norwegian compounds

    Allison Wetterlin, Aditi LahiriARTICLEThe Linguistic Review2012

    Although Einar Haugen in his 1967 article 'On the rules of Norwegian tonality' stated that "compounds are the most difficult part of the morphology", it is precisely the distribution of word accent in compounds that provides us with insight into the morphophonological interactions of the language. In this article, we analyze compounds made up of all possible element and accent combinations, and show that by assuming a privative accent opposition …

  • Tonal Accents in Norwegian

    Allison WetterlinBOOKTonal Accents in Norwegian2010

    Tonal accents in Norwegian: Phonology, morphology and lexical specification breaks from the traditional and contemporary analyses of word accent in North Germanic with the goal of providing a more simplex and unified morphophonological analysis of word accents in North Germanic. It gives the facts of accent distribution in Standard East Norwegian, discusses how three of the more recent and most important analyses of accent assignment in Norwegian…

  • Lexical specification of tone in North Germanic

    Open AccessAditi Lahiri, Allison Wetterlin et al.ARTICLENordic Journal of Linguistics2005

    Accent 1 is very much accepted in the literature as the default tonal marker in Scandinavian languages. Consequently, stems and affixes are almost always specified for accent 2. Only rarely in some analyses is accent 1 specified for affixes, but never for stems. We believe that under these conditions, the resulting morphology/phonology interaction is rather complex, having to include special rules of accent marking, floating tones, deaccenting to…
