Neural Language Processing in Adolescent First-Language Learners: Longitudinal Case Studies in American Sign Language.
One key question in neurolinguistics is the extent to which the neural processing system for language requires linguistic experience during early life to develop fully. We conducted a longitudinal anatomically constrained magnetoencephalography (aMEG) analysis of lexico-semantic processing in 2 deaf adolescents who had no sustained language input until 14 years of age, when they became fully im...
متن کاملNeural language processing in adolescent first-language learners.
The relation between the timing of language input and development of neural organization for language processing in adulthood has been difficult to tease apart because language is ubiquitous in the environment of nearly all infants. However, within the congenitally deaf population are individuals who do not experience language until after early childhood. Here, we investigated the neural underp...
متن کاملSpoken Language Activation Alters Subsequent Sign Language Activation in L2 Learners of American Sign Language.
A large body of literature has characterized unimodal monolingual and bilingual lexicons and how neighborhood density affects lexical access; however there have been relatively fewer studies that generalize these findings to bimodal (M2) second language (L2) learners of sign languages. The goal of the current study was to investigate parallel language activation in M2L2 learners of sign languag...
متن کاملthe relationship among efl learners’ autonomy, first language essay writing tasks and second language essay writing tasks in task/content based language instruction
the ability of composing a coherent and extended piece of writing in second language is considered as a fundamental factor to convey information and ideas of learners through the academic issues. although learners may achieve a perfect academic writing skill through assigning the l2 tasks in content based instruction, but demonstration of their abilities may be related to their ability in l1 es...
15 صفحه اولGrammatical development in adolescent first-language learners*
Studies of first-language acquisition in adolescence are very rare and depend primarily on comprehension measures to evaluate grammatical knowledge. These studies have led to the general conclusion that grammatical development in adolescence is severely impaired and performance is highly variable both within and across individuals. This article is the first to present longitudinal production da...
