SUMMARY:Taomei Guo (Beijing Normal University) - Language Control in Bilingual S
peech Production
DESCRIPTION:Language Control in Bilingual Speech Production\n\nWith the
development of globalization\, more and more people begin to learn and u
se a second language. For bilinguals who juggle two languages in their m
ind\, one of the most compelling findings in recent bilingual research i
s that both languages are activated in parallel during bilingual languag
e production. Therefore\, language control is recruited to detect and re
solve cross-language conflicts. Previous studies have examined the cogni
tive and neural mechanisms of bilingual language control\, but few of th
em have \;captured how different brain areas interact with each othe
r. In the first part of her talk\, Dr. Guo will present recent fMRI resu
lts on brain activation patterns of language control using multivoxel pa
ttern analysis (MVPA). The results showed that several brain regions inc
luding the dorsal prefrontal cortex\, supplementary motor area\, and ant
erior cingulate cortex were associated with language control. She will t
hen talk about modeled causal interactions of these brain areas using an
extended unified structure equation model (euSEM)-based effective conne
ctivity analysis\, and how the neural network of language control adapts
to different language contexts. In the second part of her talk\, she wi
ll present some recent work on the relationship of domain-general cognit
ive control and language\ncontrol in bilinguals' speech production.\n\nF
