Preliminaries
Stroop Task(Stroop, 1935)
- Conflict Resolution Tasks
-Named after John Ridley Stroop -Participants were asked to name the color
- Example of Stroop Task: Congruent vs. incongruent
![Page 5: Examining the Bilingual Advantage on Conflict Resolution Tasks: … · 2015-11-24 · on conflict resolution task e.g., Smaller interference cost & Small global RTs -These findings](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050422/5f913de2f8ce32301b404e00/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Preliminaries
Simon Task(Simon & Rudell, 1967)
- Conflict Resolution Tasks
- Named after J. R Simon - Participants were told to press the “Left" or "right“ key. - The signs are randomly presented to the left or right ear. e.g., Congruent : “Left” sign to the left ear Incongruent : “Left” sign to the right ear

Preliminaries
Flanker Task(Eriksen, & Eriksen, 1974)
- Conflict Resolution Tasks
-Flanker task or Eriksen flanker task -Named for Eriksen - The Target is surrounded flanker stimuli. -Participants only have to focus on the target. e.g., H or K -> right response S or C -> left response
![Page 7: Examining the Bilingual Advantage on Conflict Resolution Tasks: … · 2015-11-24 · on conflict resolution task e.g., Smaller interference cost & Small global RTs -These findings](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050422/5f913de2f8ce32301b404e00/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Preliminaries
Interference Cost
- Bilingual Advantage on Conflict Resolution Tasks
-Difference in reaction time(RT) between congruent and incongruent trials -Assumed to reflect the time to engage a domain-general inhibitory mechanism -Therefore: Smaller interference costs -> superior inhibitory control
Global RTs
-The average RT across congruent and incongruent trials -often assumed to reflect the cost of monitoring -Smaller Global RTs -> superior monitoring system

Preliminaries
Meta-Analysis
- Meta-Analysis
-Coined by Gene V. Glass(1976) -Conducting research about previous research -Statistical method for contrasting or combining the previous results -To reveal patterns among those results, disagreement among those results, or other interesting relationships (Greenland & O'Rourke, 2008, p. 652) -Moderators can be included to explain variation between studies

Summary
Bilingual Advantage
- Introduction
-A great deal of research has revealed bilingual advantage on conflict resolution task e.g., Smaller interference cost & Small global RTs -These findings suggest that bilingualism might reflect superior inhibitory control and monitoring system. What makes bilingual advantage?
- Conflict Resolution system relevance to the system created when lexical items from both languages are activated(Costa et al., 2009)
- It is likely that multilingual environment improves the monitoring system because socio-linguistic cue for which language to speak might compete(Hernandez et al., 2013)

Summary
Fail to replicate
- Introduction
Two recent reviews reach different conclusions
-Some argue: interference cost(o), global RTs(X) (e.g., Luk, De Sa & Bialystok, 2011; Yang, Yang & Lust, 2011) -Others argue: Neither interference costs nor global RTs (e.g., Paap & Greenberg, 2013; Antón et al., 2014)
-Correlated background may lead to bilingual advantage (Hilchey, Saint-Aubin, & Klein, 2015) -Bilingual Advantage may seem true, but other variables and experiences related to the mechanism may often be obscured (Valian, 2015) -> The two points suggest social and linguistic backgrounds be dealt with.

Summary
Additional Moderator Variables
- Introduction
Purpose of Writing
1. Tasks - Simon, Stroop, and Flanker task often uncorrelated (Paap & Sawi, 2014) 2. Age of participants - Children & older adults may have stronger bilingual advantage
than younger adults(Bialystok et al, 2004) - However, Antón et al.(2014) and Kirk et al.(2014) failed to observe
the advantage amongst children and older adults. 3. Research Group - different populations of bilinguals - different administration of task and analysis of data (e.g., handling outliers)
1. To check if there is reliable bilingual advantage on the interference cost and the Global RTs
2. To Check if this advantage is moderated by task, age, or research group.

Summary
Data Reduction
- Method
-A three-level meta-analysis to model dependence between global RTs and interference costs. -To do so, the authors eliminate other forms of dependence between the effect sizes within studies by following some strategies(p.597)
Moderator Coding
-Four Moderator variables
1. DV(global RT and interference Costs) 2. Age – Children(~18) / Younger Adults(18 ~ 60) / Older Adults(60 ~ ) 3. Task Simon – classic Simon task and Simon Arrows task Flanker – Flank task and ANT(Attentional Networks Test) Stroop – color-letter Stroop task Other – all other tasks 4. Lab – according to the corresponding author on each study

Summary
Model
- Method
Level1. Null Model - without moderator - the pooled effect size for global RTs, and Interference costs. Level2. including DV model(e.g., cost model) Level3-1. Additive model - testing just the effect of the moderator on the pooled effect size. (e.g., cost + age model) Level3-2. Interaction Model - testing whether the moderator affected global RTs and interference cost differently. (e.g., cost * age model)

Summary - Result
Traditional random-effects meta-analyses with no moderators
Effect sizes for global RTs d = .43 (CI: .19 - .67)
Effect sizes for interference costs d = .29 (CI: .13 - .49)

Summary - Result
-Each model was compared to both the Null Model and Model 1(e.g., Cost) according to the likelihood ratio statistic -Every model fit significantly better than the Null Model (max p-value = .002; min = .34)

Summary - Discussion
It needs considerations on socio-linguistic variable (e.g, age of onset of bilingualism and frequency of use) The existing literature has treated bilingualism - as a one-dimensional - participants are either bilingual or monolingual Future work - bilingual lexical development and lexical access -> the role of executive control in bilingual management

1. Extensive training in one specific area can affect other areas that require related cognitive function(bialystock & Depape, 2009)
2. While bilinguals only use one language, they co-activate their two languages(Bialystock et al., 2009; Kroll et al., 2006) -> language selection -> similar to the mechanism engaged in conflict resolution(Abutalebi & Green, 2007)
Discussion
Read the following Statements. Do you think these are plausible idea for explaining bilingual advantage? If not, what is your idea?
![Page 25: Examining the Bilingual Advantage on Conflict Resolution Tasks: … · 2015-11-24 · on conflict resolution task e.g., Smaller interference cost & Small global RTs -These findings](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050422/5f913de2f8ce32301b404e00/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
1.There is a benefit of bilingualism for executive function, but that benefit competes with other benefits that both mono and bilinguals have to varying degrees. Depending on the composition of each group in any given experiment, the other benefits may be more plentiful in the monolingual than bilingual group (or sufficiently plentiful in both groups), so that the benefits of bilingualism are invisible. This is the possibility that I favor. 2. There is no cognitive benefit of bilingualism. In experiments that have found a benefit, the effect is either due to the accidentally larger number of other positive factors, such as high SES, that bilinguals have in that particular sample, or due to the correlation of bilingualism with some other active property that is difficult to separate from bilingualism.
(Valian, 2015, p.3)
