This study reports the results of two experiments aimed at assessing the perceived similarity between English and Catalan vowels and diphthongs. Perceived similarity judgements were elicited from speakers of both languages involved and were compared to first l…

BACKGROUND: Bilinguals are people that can use two languages for oral communication. Many bilinguals have specific language-associated cortical regions. This study aimed to analyze the cortical positioning features of vocal, semantic, and graphemic task zones…

The present study examines the influence of language proficiency and language combination on bilingual lexical access using category fluency in 109 healthy speakers. Participants completed a category fluency task in each of their languages in three main catego…

Can bilingual exposure impact children's neural circuitry for learning to read? To answer this question, we investigated the brain bases of morphological awareness, one of the key spoken language abilities for learning to read in English and Chinese. Bilingual…

A major controversy in reading research is whether semantic information is obtained from the word to the right of the currently fixated word (word n + 1). Although most evidence has been negative in English, semantic preview benefit has been observed for reade…

The relationship between first and second language literacy was examined by identifying the skills and processes developed in the first language that were transferred to the second language. The performance of 40 university students from The People's Republic…

This study explored the extent to which the acoustic manifestation of a phonetic feature is influenced by the linguistic role that the feature plays in the sound inventory of the particular language. To this end, we investigated the acoustic property associate…

A sample of 327 profoundly deaf children from oral/aural (OA) and total communication (TC) programs across the country was tested on the Grammatical Analysis of Elicited Language--Simple Sentence Level (GAEL-S), which measures production of selected English la…

BACKGROUND: Patients originating from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds and lacking English proficiency often experience poorer health outcomes within Australia. This study aimed to determine whether patients of non-English speaking back…

Limited English proficiency is associated with disparities across diverse health outcomes. However, evidence regarding adverse birth outcomes across languages is limited, particularly among U.S. Asian and Pacific Islander populations. The study goal was to con…

Error patterns in vocabulary learning data were used as a window into the mechanisms that underlie vocabulary learning performance in bilinguals vs. monolinguals. English-Spanish bilinguals (n = 18) and English-speaking monolinguals (n = 18) were taught novel…

Much research in bilingualism has addressed the question of the extent to which lexical information is shared between languages. The present study investigated whether syntactic information is shared by testing if syntactic priming occurs between languages. Sp…

Sixteen French-English late bilinguals performed a speeded language recognition task on lateralized words that were either marked or unmarked for language on the basis of digram frequency. Response latencies were faster to orthographically marked than unmarked…

Long-term speech spectra from Finnish and English are analysed by a computer-based method which offers a rapid and accurate way of measuring these spectra from recorded material (single words, list of words, music, etc.). The signal processing scheme is illust…

Recent investigations of time-altered speech have dealt with the effect of time compression and sensation level on intelligibility scores of native speaker/listeners of English. In the present investigation, the intelligibility of time-compressed consonant-nuc…

This study examines the processing and interpretation of quantified sentences in the a-every configuration across English and Chinese using self-paced reading, comprehension questions, and large language model (LLM) comparisons. We addressed three research obj…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being explored as a tool to optimize and accelerate various stages of evidence synthesis. A persistent challenge in environmental evidence syntheses is that these remain predominantly monolingual (English), leading…
