DOI: 10.1002/hbm.24929
Abstract: Music processing and right hemispheric language lateralization share a common network in the right auditory cortex and its frontal connections. Given that the development of hemispheric language dominance takes place over several years, this study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cortex.2019.03.010
Abstract: Recognizing words and faces engages highly specialized sites within the middle fusiform gyrus, known as the visual word form area (VWFA) and fusiform face area (FFA) respectively. The VWFA and FFA have clear but opposite… read more here.

DOI: 10.1037/neu0000592
Abstract: OBJECTIVE The current study investigated how Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects production of speech errors in reading-aloud of mixed-language passages with language switches on cognates (e.g., family/familia), noncognates (e.g., people/gente), and function words (the/la). METHOD Twelve… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/13670069231170545
Abstract: Bilingual speakers that speak a null subject (Spanish) and a non-null subject language (English) may show some indeterminacy in referential choice in their nondominant language in comparison to monolingual speakers. The present study tests the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2021.594648
Abstract: Bilingual language control in production tasks with language switches is supposed to be linked to domain-general cognitive control. In the present study, we investigated the role of language dominance, measured on a continuous scale, in… read more here.
