Journal ArticleDOI
Bilingualism aids conflict resolution: Evidence from the ANT task
TL;DR: The results show that bilingualism exerts an influence in the attainment of efficient attentional mechanisms by young adults that are supposed to be at the peak of their attentional capabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the bilingual advantage in conflict processing: Now you see it, now you don't
TL;DR: The results reveal that when the task at hand recruits a good deal of monitoring resources, bilinguals outperform monolinguals and suggests that bilingualism may affect the monitoring processes involved in executive control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bilingualism Tunes the Anterior Cingulate Cortex for Conflict Monitoring
Jubin Abutalebi,Jubin Abutalebi,Pasquale Anthony Della Rosa,David W. Green,Mireia Hernández,Paola Scifo,Roland Keim,Stefano F. Cappa,Albert Costa +8 more
TL;DR: It is revealed that dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, a structure tightly bound to domain-general executive control functions, is a common locus for language control and resolving nonverbal conflict and that bilinguals use this structure more efficiently than monolinguals to monitor nonlinguistic cognitive conflicts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bridging language and attention: Brain basis of the impact of bilingualism on cognitive control
Gabrielle Garbin,Ana Sanjuán,Cristina Forn,Juan Carlos Bustamante,Aina Rodríguez-Pujadas,Vicente Belloch,Mireia Hernández,Albert Costa,Albert Costa,César Ávila +9 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that bilinguals' early training in switching back and forth between their languages leads to the recruitment of brain regions involved in language control when performing non-linguistic cognitive tasks is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Qualitative Differences between Bilingual Language Control and Executive Control: Evidence from Task-Switching.
TL;DR: The observation of different patterns of switch costs in the linguistic and the non-linguistic switching tasks suggest that the bLC system is not completely subsidiary to the domain-general EC system.
