Citations in the corpus
- Parental language mixing: Its measurement and the relation of mixed input to young bilingual children's vocabulary size* (2012, methodology): “Consistent with previous research on language mixing (Heredia & Altarriba, 2001), parents reported borrowing words when there is no adequate translation for a word, when they are not sure of a word (perhaps failing to retrieve it), and when the word is hard to pronounce.”
- The automatic access of emotion: Emotional Stroop effects in Spanish–English bilingual speakers (2007, background): “For example, Heredia and Altarriba ( 2001 ) noted that most Spanish speakers would agree that the emotion word carino has no single equivalent in English.”
- A longitudinal study of Chinese children and adolescents learning English in the United States (2003, background): “As bilinguals’ two languages closely interact with each other at different levels (Grosjean, 1989; Heredia & Altarriba, 2001), researchers have begun to advance this line of inquiry by examining long-term attainment, not only in L2, but also in L1, using comparable measures of L2 and L1 proficiency…”
- Does cariño equal “liking”? (2003, background): “It is also possible that switching to a particular language and using language-specific emotion terms will allow bilingual counselors and therapists to elicit more information about a particular emotion script (cf. Heredia & Altarriba, 2001; Perez-Foster, 1998).”
- Is Syntax Separate or Shared Between Languages? (2004, background): “In code switching (e.g., Heredia & Altarriba, 2001; Macnamara, Krauthammer, & Bolgar, 1968), a word or phrase in one language is used instead of a word or phrase in another language, in a manner that is normally highly fluent.”
