    In the context of bilingual research, little is known about the effects of neurodegenerative disorders (NDs) on the processing of two languages in a bilingual. In a recent cross-sectional study, we showed that Mild Cognitive ...
  • Language reconfiguration in bilinguals: a study with Huntington’s disease patients

    The present study investigated language inhibition and cross-language interference as two possible mechanisms of bilingual language control (BLC) that can be affected by Huntington’s disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disease ...
  • Neural basis of bilingual language control
    Calabria, Marco; Costa, Albert, 1970-; Green, David W.; Abutalebi, Jubin (Wiley, 2018)
    Acquiring and speaking a second language increases demand on the processes of language control for bilingual as compared to monolingual speakers. Language control for bilingual speakers involves the ability to keep the two ...
  • Neuropsychological deficits in patients with cognitive complaints after COVID-19
    García-Sánchez, Carmen; Calabria, Marco; Grunden, Nicholas; Pons, Catalina; Arroyo-Díaz, Juan Antonio; Gómez-Anson, Beatriz; Lleó, Alberto; Alcolea, Daniel; Belvís, Roberto; Morollón, Noemí; Mur, Isabel; Pomar, Virginia; Domingo, Pere (Wiley, 2022)
    Background: While much of the scientific focus thus far has been on cognitive sequelae in patients with severe COVID-19, subjective cognitive complaints are being reported across the spectrum of disease severity, with ...
  • Non-linguistic effects of language switching training
    Timmer, Kalinka; Calabria, Marco; Costa, Albert, 1970- (Elsevier, 2018)
    What is the relationship between bilingual language control (BLC) mechanisms and domain-general executive control (EC) processes? Do these two domains share some of their mechanisms? Here, we take a novel approach to this ...
  • On the bilingualism effect in task switching
    Branzi, Francesca Martina, 1984-; Calabria, Marco; Gade, Miriam; Fuentes, Luis J.; Costa, Albert, 1970- (Cambridge University Press, 2018)
    In one task-switching experiment, we compared bilinguals and monolinguals to explore the reliability of the bilingualism effect on the n-2 repetition cost. In a second taskswitching experiment, we tested another group of ...
  • On the overlap between bilingual language control and domain-general executive control
    Branzi, Francesca Martina, 1984-; Calabria, Marco; Boscarino, Maria Lucrezia; Costa, Albert, 1970- (Elsevier, 2016)
    We explored the overlap between bilingual language control (bLC) and domain-general executive control (EC) by focusing on inhibitory control processes. We tested 62 bilinguals in linguistic and non-linguistic switching ...
  • On the overlap between bilingual language control and domain-general executive control
    Branzi, Francesca Martina, 1984-; Calabria, Marco; Boscarino, Maria Lucrezia; Costa, Albert, 1970- (Elsevier, 2016)
    We explored the overlap between bilingual language control (bLC) and domain-general executive control (EC) by focusing on inhibitory control processes. We tested 62 bilinguals in linguistic and non-linguistic switching ...
  • On the reliability of switching costs across time and domains
    Timmer, Kalinka; Calabria, Marco; Branzi, Francesca Martina, 1984-; Baus, Cristina; Costa, Albert, 1970- (Frontiers, 2018)
    Bilingual speakers are suggested to use control processes to avoid linguistic interference from the unintended language. It is debated whether these bilingual language control (BLC) processes are an instantiation of the ...
