TLDR
It is concluded that the cognate facilitation effect is a real effect that originates in the lexicon, but that cognates can be subject to competition effects outside the Lexicon.About:

Mixing the stimulus list in bilingual lexical decision turns cognate facilitation effects into mirrored inhibition effects
TL;DR: This paper found that cognate pairs with an increasing cross-linguistic form overlap produced considerably larger effects than non-identical cognates, supporting their special status in the bilingual lexicon.

Towards a distributed connectionist account of cognates and interlingual homographs: evidence from semantic relatedness tasks
Eva D. Poort,Jennifer M. Rodd +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that bilinguals appear to process cognates and interlingual homographs as monolinguals process polysemes and homonyms, respectively, and that it is necessary to explore the viability of such a model for the bilingual case.

Semantic priming effects can be modulated by crosslinguistic interactions during second-language auditory word recognition
TL;DR: This paper investigated how second language auditory word recognition, in early and highly proficient Spanish-Basque (L1-L2) bilinguals, is influenced by crosslinguistic phonological-lexical interactions and semantic priming.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intact reversed language-dominance but exaggerated cognate effects in reading aloud of language switches in bilingual Alzheimer's disease.
TL;DR: Reversed language-dominance effects appear to illustrate automatic inhibitory control over the dominant language, but could instead reflect limited resources available for monitoring when completing a task in the nondominant language.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibitory and facilitatory effects of phonological and orthographic similarity on L2 word recognition across modalities in bilinguals
TL;DR: The authors found that orthographic and phonological similarity in the same modality leads to improved signal detection, whereas similarity across modalities hinders it, which suggests a need for a conceptual and practical separation between types of similarity in cognate studies.

Fitting Linear Mixed-Effects Models Using lme4
TL;DR: In this article, a model is described in an lmer call by a formula, in this case including both fixed-and random-effects terms, and the formula and data together determine a numerical representation of the model from which the profiled deviance or the profeatured REML criterion can be evaluated as a function of some of model parameters.

Random effects structure for confirmatory hypothesis testing: Keep it maximal
TL;DR: It is argued that researchers using LMEMs for confirmatory hypothesis testing should minimally adhere to the standards that have been in place for many decades, and it is shown thatLMEMs generalize best when they include the maximal random effects structure justified by the design.

Mental Control of the Bilingual Lexico-Semantic System.
TL;DR: The IC model is used to expand the explanation of the effect of category blocking in translation proposed by Kroll and Stewart (1994), and predictions of the model are tested against other data.

Moving beyond Kučera and Francis: A critical evaluation of current word frequency norms and the introduction of a new and improved word frequency measure for American English
Marc Brysbaert,Boris New +1 more
TL;DR: The size of the corpus, the language register on which the corpus is based, and the definition of the frequency measure were investigated, finding that lemma frequencies are not superior to word form frequencies in English and that a measure of contextual diversity is better than a measure based on raw frequency of occurrence.

Confidence intervals in within-subject designs: A simpler solution to Loftus and Masson's method
TL;DR: A simple alternative method is proposed that provides a single error bar for all the conditions, masking information such as the heterogeneity of variances across conditions and how it can be implemented in SPSS.
