An ERP study on L2 syntax processing: When do learners fail? (2014, background): “The latter window is somewhat longer than is typical in P600 studies in monolinguals, because the P600 in L2 learners can be somewhat delayed (Weber-Fox and Neville, 1996; Hahne, 2001; Rossi et al., 2006; Sabourin and Stowe, 2008).”
The interplay of individual differences and context of learning in behavioral and neurocognitive second language development (2018, background): “At higher levels of proficiency and exposure, L2 learners often show P600s for syntactic violations (e.g. Bowden et al., 2013; Hahne and Friederici, 2001; Rossi et al., 2006).”
Morphosyntactic processing in advanced second language (L2) learners: An event-related potential investigation of the effects of L1–L2 similarity and structural distance (2014, neutral): “Previous ERP studies on L2 processing have shown that, with increasing proficiency, adult L2 learners tend to show native-like ERP patterns for morphosyntactic violations, (e.g. Ojima et al., 2005; Rossi et al., 2006; Tanner et al., 2013; for reviews, see Kotz, 2009; Steinhauer et al., 2009).”
Temporal dynamics of late second language acquisition: evidence from event-related brain potentials (2009, background): “First, note that the general view that native-like L2 acquisition is restricted to morphological aspects of language cannot be maintained in the face of studies reviewed above; e.g. both the Steinhauer et al. (2006) and Rossi et al. (2006) findings for syntactic violations.”
Event-related brain potentials and second language learning: syntactic processing in late L2 learners at different L2 proficiency levels (2010, methodology): “This type of agreement was tested by Rossi et al. (2006) in addition to word category violations.”
Individual differences in late bilinguals' L2 phonological processes: From acoustic-phonetic analysis to lexical access (2012, methodology): “To assess individual differences in non-native language perception, a performance score was calculated for each participant following Sebastián-Gallés and Baus (2005). The categorization score was computed by averaging the log odds of æ-responses for the continuum steps 1 and 2, on the one hand, and”
Can late L2 learners acquire new grammatical features? Evidence from ERPs and eye-tracking ☆ (2012, result): “Overall, our results converge with other studies suggesting that highly proficient L2 learners can reach native-like processing levels even if they learned their L2 late in life (Gillon-Dowens et al., 2010; Herschensohn, 2006; Hopp, 2007; Rossi et al., 2006; Tokowicz & MacWhinney, 2005; White et al.”
