On the multidimensionality of bilingualism and the unique role of language use*

Patrycja Kalamala et al.

Summary: This study found that language entropy reflects a separate aspect of the bilingual experience from language-switching and mixing measures among 171 Polish-English bilinguals. It also indicated that language proficiency is a complex construct requiring comprehensive measurements. These findings contribute to discussions on best practices for quantifying bilingualism.

Language control in regional dialect speakers - monolingual by name, bilingual by nature?

Neil W. Kirk et al.

Summary: Despite being treated as a homogeneous control group, monolinguals frequently use multiple language varieties that may require control mechanisms. Research findings suggest that Orcadian Scots may be the dominant variety for participants of Scottish Standard English and Orcadian Scots, highlighting the need to scrutinize monolinguals for routine use of different language varieties to better understand mechanisms underlying their lexical access.

Is bilingualism associated with better working memory capacity? A meta-analysis

Catherine Monnier et al.

Summary: Research suggests that bilinguals have a slight advantage in working memory, especially when using the second language in verbal working memory tasks. However, studies on bilingual advantage show inconsistent results, and future research should consider individual differences within bilingual groups.

The Bilingual Advantage in Children's Executive Functioning Is Not Related to Language Status: A Meta-Analytic Review

Cassandra J. Lowe et al.

Summary: Based on available evidence, the bilingual advantage in children's executive functioning is small, variable, and potentially not attributable to the effect of language status.

Why not both? Rethinking categorical and continuous approaches to bilingualism

Lena V. Kremin et al.

Summary: This paper suggests integrating advanced statistical psychometric methods into defining and modeling bilingualism, in order to incorporate more complex models into bilingual research. Researchers are encouraged to pre-register their model selection and planned analyses, as well as to share their data and analysis scripts to converge various subfields of bilingualism research on appropriate models.

Language distance modulates cognitive control in bilinguals

Narges Radman et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of close and distant language pairs on language control and cognitive processes in bilinguals, finding that bilinguals in close language pairs demonstrated better performance in cognitive cost and reaction time compared to bilinguals in distant language pairs. Additionally, electrophysiological results showed stronger involvement of language control and domain-general cognitive control regions in bilinguals in close language pairs.

Age of acquisition - not bilingualism - is the primary determinant of less than nativelike L2 ultimate attainment

Emanuel Bylund et al.

Summary: Age of acquisition rather than bilingualism is the primary determinant of L2 ultimate attainment, with limited effects of bilingualism on the final level of language proficiency.

Subtle Increments in Socioeconomic Status and Bilingualism Jointly Affect Children's Verbal and Nonverbal Performance

Ellen Bialystok et al.

Summary: The study found that socioeconomic status and bilingualism have significant impacts on verbal fluency and executive function, with children from higher SES backgrounds performing better in phonological fluency and bilingual children in higher SES group outperforming all others in executive function. Nonetheless, a positive relation between the degree of bilingualism and executive function was significant across the whole sample.

On the phantom-like appearance of bilingualism effects on neurocognition: (How) should we proceed?

Evelina Leivada et al.

Summary: Many studies have suggested bilingualism affects cognitive functions, but with mixed results, the conclusion has been challenged. Factors such as the heterogeneity of the term 'bilingual', sample size effects, task effects, and the dynamics between early publication bias and the Proteus phenomenon have led to the conclusion that further research is needed before definitive claims can be made on the topic.

Self-assessment and standard language ideologies: bilingual adolescents in Sweden reflect on their language proficiencies

Julia Forsberg et al.

Summary: Swedish adolescents reflect upon and self-assess their language proficiencies through different reference points, such as comparing their own proficiency with others and formal grading in school. When assessing Swedish, they focus on 'good' and 'bad' language as well as standard language ideologies and their speech community, while reflecting on other languages is more influenced by peer group and speech community.
