有人认为,由于掌握两种语言的经验,双语者在某些执行功能上优于单语者,尤其是对任务无关刺激的抑制。本研究考察了双语对执行语音任务,即有音节刺激的强迫注意二分听任务的影响。在标准的非强迫条件下,参与者报告了他们听到的所有音节,无论是从右耳还是从左耳。在强迫-右(FR)和强迫-左(FL)注意条件下,他们必须将注意力集中到右耳或左耳刺激上,并抑制进入另一只耳朵的信息。我们从两个年龄组(30-50岁和60-74岁)测试了芬兰单语者和早期同时使用芬兰-瑞典双语者。结果表明,双语者在顺应性和外语条件下的表现均好于单语者。这支持了双语在引导注意力和抑制与任务无关的刺激方面的优势的观点。
It has been claimed that due to their experience in controlling two languages, bilinguals exceed monolinguals in certain executive functions, especially inhibition of task-irrelevant stimuli. Here we investigated the effects of bilingualism on an executive phonological task, namely the forced-attention dichotic listening task with syllabic stimuli. In the standard non-forced (NF) condition, the participants reported all syllables they heard, be it from the right or the left ear. In the forced-right (FR) and forced-left (FL) attention conditions, they had to direct their attention to either the right- or the left-ear stimulus and inhibit information coming to the other ear. We tested Finnish monolinguals and early simultaneous Finnish–Swedish bilinguals from two age groups: (30–50-year-olds and 60–74-year-olds). The results showed that the bilinguals performed better than the monolinguals in the FR and FL conditions. This supports the idea of a bilingual advantage in directing attention and inhibiting task-irrelevant stimuli.
