Microscopic and macroscopic approaches to the mental representations of second languages

Zhenguang G Cai et al. Behav Brain Sci. 2017 Jan.

Abstract

With a particular reference to second language (L2), we discuss (1) how structural priming can be used to tap into L2 representations and their relationships with first and target language representations; and (2) how complex networks additionally can be used to reveal the global and local patterning of L2 linguistic features and L2 developmental trajectories.
