The Language Experience and Proficiency Questionnaire (LEAP-Q): assessing language profiles in bilinguals and multilinguals. (2007, unknown): “The LEAP-Q is based on question types previously used in questionnaires assessing bilinguals (e.g., Flege et al., 1999, 2002; Jia et al., 2002; Marian & Spivey, 2003; Vaid & Menon, 2000).”
Constraints on parallel activation in bilingual spoken language processing: Examining proficiency and lexical status using eye-tracking (2007, methodology): “…that bilinguals activate their two languages in parallel during language comprehension both in the auditory modality (e.g., Ju & Luce, 2004; Marian & Spivey, 2003a, 2003b; Schulpen, Dijkstra, Schriefers, & Hasper, 2003; Spivey & Marian, 1999; Weber & Cutler, 2004) and in the visual…”
How cross-language similarity and task demands affect cognate recognition (2010, background): “However, the effect has also been observed in the auditory modality (Marian & Spivey, 2003) and in word production (Costa, Caramazza, & Sebastian-Galles, 2000; Costa, Santesteban, & Cano, 2005; Kroll & Stewart, 1994).”
Clitic-doubled left dislocation and focus fronting in L2 Spanish: A case of successful acquisition at the syntax–discourse interface (2012, background): “Linguistic inhibition is necessary for bilinguals under the generally accepted idea that all grammars in the mind of bilinguals are simultaneously activated (Kroll et al., 2008; Marian and Spivey, 2003; for a review, see Bialystok et al., 2009).”
Second Language Proficiency and Cross-Language Lexical Activation (2012, methodology): “…in the L2 but not in the L1 in both nonimmersed Dutch-English (Weber & Cutler, 2004) and immersed Spanish-English (Ju & Luce, 2004) bilinguals, but in a different group of immersed bilinguals, Russian-English bilinguals, distractor effects have been found in both L1 and L2 (Marian & Spivey, 2003a).”
Juggling Two Languages in One Mind (2008, background): “It is beyond the scope of this chapter to review this work in greater detail but we note that evidence for language nonselectivity has also been reported for spoken word recognition in and out of sentence context (e.g., Chambers & Cooke, 2009; Marian & Spivey, 2003).”
The Bilingual Adaptation: How Minds Accommodate Experience (2017, background): “Further evidence for joint activation of the nontarget language comes from an eye-tracking study by Marian and Spivey (2003).”
Understanding the Consequences of Bilingualism for Language Processing and Cognition (2013, background): “In word recognition, they are relatively short lived, as suggested by the Martín et al. study, but in word production, they may be long lasting, persisting over many trials. Although there may be shared mechanisms of inhibition, there are certainly distinct mechanisms as well. Future studies will ha”
Moving toward a neuroplasticity view of bilingualism, executive control, and aging (2014, background): “…young adults have demonstrated activation of candidates from both languages simultaneously (termed nonselective access), particularly if the target language is the listener’s L2 (e.g., Blumenfeld & Marian, 2007; Broersma & Cutler, 2011; Canseco-Gonzalez et al., 2010; Marian & Spivey, 2003a, 2003b).”
Bilingual Language Processing and Interference in Bilinguals: Evidence From Eye Tracking and Picture Naming (2007, methodology): “For example, eyetracking technology has been used to demonstrate parallel activation of two languages during bilingual spoken-word recognition (e.g., Ju & Luce, 2004; Marian & Spivey, 2003a, 2003b; Marian, Spivey, & Hirsch, 2003; Weber & Cutler, 2000).”
Asymmetric lexical access and fuzzy lexical representations in second language learners (2014, background): “…that bilinguals experience parallel competition from all their languages even in a monolingual mode, both in the auditory modality (Ju & Luce, 2004; Marian & Spivey, 2003; Spivey & Marian, 1999; Weber & Cutler, 2004) and in the visual modality (Dijkstra & van Heuven, 1998; Jared & Szucs, 2002).”
