Application of Current Theoretical Models to Bilingual Aphasia Rehabilitation Road Map  The nature of bilingual language processing  The nature of language impairment in bilingual aphasia  Language therapy for bilingual aphasia Research in bilingualism 1. Language processing in a bilingual individual is a dynamic process 2. Both language systems are active during language processing tasks 3. Language control: how the target language is activated 1. Language processing in a bilingual individual is a dynamic process  Learning L2 not only changes representations and access for L2 but also for L1  Mixing between the two languages poses a greater cost to L1 (more dominant) than to L2 (less dominant)  Immersion experiences in L2 result in attentuation/attrition of L1  Long term immersion can change the dominance, with L2 now becoming the L1 Model of Bilingual Lexical Access Semantics L1 L2 Asymmetrical Model (Kroll & Stewart, 1994) Model of Bilingual Lexical Access Semantics L1 L2 Model of Bilingual Lexical Access Semantics L1 L2 Model of Bilingual Lexical Access Semantics Less Dominant More dominant Model of Bilingual Lexical Access Semantics More dominant Less Dominant 2. Both language systems are active during language processing tasks  Word recognition and production  Robust research evidence that parallel activation of a bilingual’s two languages is observed during word recognition and production.  Selecting a word to speak in one language activates alternatives in the non-target language (e.g., Colomé, 2001; Costa, Miozzo, & Caramazza, 1999; Hermans, Bongaerts, De Bot, & Schreuder, 1998).  Parallel activation is also observed when languages differ in script (e.g., Chinese/English; Japanese/English) GRAPE DOG
