Word and nonword repetition in bilingual subjects: a PET study.
Learning a specific skill during childhood may partly determine the functional organization of the adult brain. This hypothesis led us to study brain activation patterns using positron emission tomography (PET), in which we compared word and nonword repetition in 10 right-handed native English-speakers (L1) who were proficient in their second language, French (L2), which was learned after the a...
متن کاملNonword repetition priming 1 Running head: NONWORD REPETITION Nonword Repetition in Lexical Decision: Support for Two Opposing Processes
We tested and confirmed the hypothesis that the prior presentation of nonwords in lexical decision is the net result of two opposing processes:(1) a relatively fast inhibitory process based on global familiarity, and (2) a relatively slow facilitatory process based on the retrieval of specific episodic information. In three studies, we manipulated speed-stress to influence the balance between t...
متن کاملNonword Repetition Task
This report presents an analysis of speech productions obtained from 14 children with cochlear implants who completed a nonword repetition task. The stimuli consisted of 20 auditorily-presented multisyllabic nonwords. The analyses reported here include a descriptive analysis of the children’s errors, and a summary of how accurately the children imitated the duration, number of syllables, and in...
متن کاملPrimacy and recency in nonword repetition.
An increasing body of evidence suggests that nonword repetition is related to immediate serial memory (e.g., Baddeley, Gathercole, & Papagno, 1998; Gathercole & Baddeley, 1993). One possible account of this relationship is that a nonword is processed like a list when it is first encountered. If this is the case, it should be possible to detect serial position effects in repetition of single non...
متن کاملNonword Repetition and Vocabulary Use in Toddlers
Purpose: There is general consensus that the ability to repeat nonsense words is related to vocabulary size in young children, but there is considerable debate about the nature of the relationship and the mechanisms that underlie it. Research with adults has proposed a shared neural substrate for nonword repetition (NWR) and language production, but this has been little explored in children. Me...
