I will be recruiting graduate students for September 2023! If you're fascinated by the bouba/kiki effect, or how the feeling of a word can affect its meaning (looking at you "moist"), let's figure it out together at @Carleton_U! Get in touch to learn more! (Please RT!🙏)

We're pleased to see our consensus study on quantifying #bilingual experience in children available online. This was a collaborative effort of 132 #researchers, #teachers and #SLTs from 29 countries. The paper is freely available here: doi.org/10.1017/S13667289220…

no, in bilingual research you don't need a monolingual control

an important paper on contrast coding! also, i'm happy to see Bilingualism:Language and Cognition (@CambUP_LangLing), #eyetracking, and #individualdifferences doing comparatively well

Excited to share my latest paper w/ @debra_titone and Brendan Johns on @CanJournExpPsyc! Corpus-based measures of contextual and semantic diversity are better predictors of the lexical organization of multiword and idiomatic phrases than frequency dx.doi.org/10.1037/cep000027…

A call to action by @mehrgoltiv & @debra_titone for researchers (esp. psycholinguists & cognitive) to more fully embrace social experiences as part of theory and experiment, incl. a framework and examples on how to do so osf.io/gm2fn/

If you understand but cannot speak a second/heritage language, you are bilingual. Stop putting yourself down for not speaking the language because trust me, you are very much distinct from a monolingual who experiences the world through only one language. #ReceptiveBilinguals

Important work by @akmokha on language development and neurodevelopmental disorders
Today was the symposium for Canadian Organization of Undergraduate Health Research, where I presented the findings of my summer research fellowship.🥳It's been a lot of work the past few months - I am so proud! Now: some downtime, before grad school commitments kicks in.

did you know children can learn two languages without confusion or developmental delay? pass it on. i think every day about how this wasn't common knowledge in the late 80s and how i grew up without spanish because of it.

Sharing a new paper w/ @debra_titone in @jneurolang: doi.org/10.1162/nol_a_00044. We suggest that bilingualism is an exercise in managing uncertainty, and ways that fields like cogsci and langsci can be brought together under the theme of uncertainty to paint a richer picture.

Let’s converge more: lang sci can offer ways to manipulate rich and diverse behavioral contexts on top of traditional tasks. Cogsci can offer complex, computational, and neurobiologically plausible models that apply to language.

We also ponder other issues, like how code-switching (the practice of flexibly mixing languages that some bilinguals engage in) might be a flexible cognitive adaptation that functions to reduce uncertainty!
