Bilingual Contextual Variability: Learning Words in Two Languages
Background. Bilingual novel word learning is shaped by both semantic context and the language in which learning occurs. According to the context variability hypothesis and instance-based learning frameworks, varied semantic contexts promote the formation of flexible lexical-semantic representations. However, the extent to which these benefits generalize across languages and transfer to novel contexts remains unclear. Method. Two experiments exami…
Effect of Interlingual Homographs and Word Frequency on Bilingual Lexical Access
In two experiments, a language decision task, and a multiple-choice English-Portuguese translation task, we examined the effect of interlingual homographs and word frequency on lexical access of Brazilian-Portuguese - English bilinguals. Language choice, accuracy, and response times were registered by the PsyToolkit software, and linear mixed-effects models were used in the analysis of the data. The results of this study align with the non-select…
Bilingual novel word learning in sentence contexts: Effects of semantic and language variation
Explaining Individual Differences in Trajectories of Simultaneous Bilingual Development: Contributions of Child and Environmental Factors
Effects of child and environmental factors in moderating the course of bilingual development were investigated using longitudinal data, from age 2.5 to 5 years, on 126 U.S.-born children with early exposure to Spanish and English. Multilevel models of Spanish and English expressive vocabulary identified children’s phonological memory ability as a significant predictor of both outcomes, while also replicating the effect of the relative amount of l…
