Moving beyond the priming of single-language sentences: A proposal for a comprehensive model to account for linguistic representation in bilinguals

Gerrit Jan Kootstra et al. Behav Brain Sci. 2017 Jan.

Abstract

In their target article, Branigan & Pickering (B&P) briefly discuss bilingual language representation, focusing primarily on cross-language priming between single-language sentences. We follow up on this discussion by showing how structural priming drives real-life phenomena of bilingual language use beyond the priming of unilingual sentences and by arguing that B&P's account should be extended with a representation for language membership.
