An electrophysiological investigation of translation and morphological priming in biscriptal bilinguals

Publication date: August 2019Source: Journal of Neurolinguistics, Volume 51Author(s): Wonil Chung, Myung-Kwan Park, Say Young KimAbstractThe current study used event-related potentials (ERPs) to investigate whether the pattern of cross-language masked translation priming reflects the asymmetric link between first language (L1) and second language (L2) and whether it occurs via morphological decomposition with unbalanced Korean-English bilinguals. In Experiment 1, the targets were Korean (L1) compound words (e.g., 꿀벌, "kkwu-pel", honeybee), and the primes were English (L2) words: either 1) translated compound words (e.g., honeybee), 2) translated constituents (e.g., bee), or 3) unrelated constituents (e.g., ear). Experiment 2 was the same as Experiment 1, except that the targets wer...
