双语者用他们的主要语言命名图片的速度比单语者慢(错误也更多)。相比之下,双语者命名相同的图片一样快,单语者的第五次演示(在实验2中),并将它们分类(人为或自然)一样快,准确地做单语者(在实验1)。此外,双语检索英语图片名称更快,如果他们知道的名称在西班牙语和英语(翻译测试的基础上,双语完成后的定时任务),和单语反应时间相同的材料表明,这一发现并没有得到简单的,因为名字更容易翻译一般更容易。这些研究结果表明,双语者不同于单语者在后概念处理水平,在非目标语言的词汇表征的内隐激活可以促进检索在目标语言,双语是类似于有一个词汇充满了较低的频率的话,相对于单语者。
Bilinguals named pictures in their dominant language more slowly (and with more errors) than did monolinguals. In contrast, bilinguals named the same pictures as quickly as did monolinguals on the fifth presentation (in Experiment 2) and classified them (as human made or natural) as quickly and accurately as did monolinguals (in Experiment 1). In addition, bilinguals retrieved English picture names more quickly if they knew the name in both Spanish and English (on the basis of a translation test that bilinguals completed after the timed tasks), and monolingual response times for the same materials suggested that this finding was not obtained simply because names that were easier to translate were easier in general. These findings suggest that bilinguals differ from monolinguals at a postconceptual processing level, that implicit activation of lexical representations in the nontarget language can facilitate retrieval in the target language, and that being bilingual is analogous to having a lexicon full of lower frequency words, relative to monolinguals.
