我们研究了在第一语言和第二语言（即L1和L2）阅读过程中，跨语言激活是否对语言需求和语言体验的变化敏感。实验1包括L2中L1 -法语- L2英语双语者的阅读，实验2包括L1 -英语- L2法语双语者在L1中的阅读。两组人都用目标词来阅读英语句子，这些词作为跨语言激活的指标：跨语言同音异义词、同源词和匹配的语言独有对照词。关键的是，我们控制了英语句子在下游目标单词之前是否包含短暂的语言转换。这使我们能够评估语言需求变化的后果，无论是在当下，还是在语言经验的作用下，随着语言需求的变化而变化。法语转换与L2和L1读者在转换地点的阅读成本有关。然而，仅在L1读者切换后，下游跨语言激活更大。这些结果表明，跨语言激活对语言需求和语言经验的瞬间变化共同敏感，可能反映了二语和母语读者面临的不同控制需求，这与将语言控制归因于双语加工的主要作用的模型一致。（PsycInfo数据库记录(c) 2021 APA，版权所有）
We investigated whether cross-language activation is sensitive to shifting language demands and language experience during first and second language (ie, L1, L2) reading. Experiment 1 consisted of L1 French–L2 English bilinguals reading in the L2, and Experiment 2 consisted of L1 English–L2 French bilinguals reading in the L1. Both groups read English sentences with target words serving as indices of cross-language activation: cross-language homographs, cognates, and matched language-unique control words. Critically, we manipulated whether English sentences contained a momentary language switch into French before downstream target words. This allowed us to assess the consequences of shifting language demands, both in the moment, and residually following a switch as a function of language experience. Switches into French were associated with a reading cost at the switch site for both L2 and L1 readers. However, downstream cross-language activation was larger following a switch only for L1 readers. These results suggest that cross-language activation is jointly sensitive to momentary shifts in language demands and language experience, likely reflecting different control demands faced by L2 versus L1 readers, consistent with models of bilingual processing that ascribe a primary role for language control.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)
