Abstract: The aim of the present work was a cross-linguistic generalization of Inoue et al.'s (2011) algorithm for discriminating infant- (IDS) vs. adult-directed speech (ADS). IDS is the way in which mothers communicate with infants; it… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0142716423000164
Abstract: The present study investigates current proposals that priming is a mechanism of cross-linguistic influence (CLI) in bilinguals by aiming to boost CLI through priming. In two cross-linguistic structural priming experiments with less-proficient adolescent (Study 1)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0142716423000188
Abstract: This study compared patterns of nonselective cross-language activation in L1 and L2 visual word recognition with different-script bilinguals. The aim was to determine (1) whether lexical processing is nonselective in the L1 (as in L2),… read more here.

Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of child language"
DOI: 10.1017/s030500092200023x
Abstract: This paper examines the acquisition of demonstratives (e.g., that, there) from a cross-linguistic perspective. Although demonstratives are often said to play a crucial role in L1 acquisition, there is little systematic research on this topic.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1470542725000042
Abstract: Abstract In Modern Standard German both bare infinitives and those formed with the particle zu are used as independent main clause predicates, where they each have illocutionary force. While the former can be associated with… read more here.

Cross-linguistic comparison of color word learning in German and Japanese children shows universal and language-specific processes
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-23286-3
Abstract: This study examines how German- and Japanese-speaking children acquire the meanings of color words, focusing on two theoretically distinct processes: centroid mapping and boundary delineation. While previous cross-linguistic studies have typically addressed these aspects in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-92885-x
Abstract: Learning to read affects speech perception. For example, the ability of listeners to recognize consistently spelled words faster than inconsistently spelled words is a robust finding called the Orthographic Consistency Effect (OCE). Previous studies located… read more here.
