German-learning toddlers (24-month-olds) were presented with picture pairs and heard a noun (without a preceding article) labeling one of the pictures. Labels for target and distracter images either matched or mismatched in grammatical gender and either matched or mismatched in semantic category. When target and distracter overlapped in both semantic and gender information, target recognition was impaired compared with when target and distracter overlapped on only one dimension. Results suggest that by 24 months of age, German-learning toddlers are already forming not only semantic but also grammatical gender categories and that these sources of information are activated, and interact, during object identification."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.jecp.2013.02.006"],["dc.identifier.gro","3150975"],["dc.identifier.pmid","23563160"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/7780"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-0965"],["dc.title","Categorizing with gender: Does implicit grammatical gender affect semantic processing in 24-month-old toddlers?"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Previous studies with adults suggest limits to the degree to which information about the visual form of a referent is predicted during language comprehension in low constraint sentences. Toddlers (30-month-olds) heard either contextually constraining sentences or contextually neutral sentences as they viewed images that were either identical or shape-related to the heard target label. We observed that toddlers activate shape information of upcoming linguistic input in contextually constraining semantic contexts; hearing a sentence context that was predictive of the target word activated perceptual information that subsequently influenced visual attention toward shape-related targets. Our findings suggest that visual shape is central to predictive language processing in toddlers."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.jecp.2015.11.002"],["dc.identifier.gro","3150979"],["dc.identifier.pmid","26687440"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/7784"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-0965"],["dc.subject","Eye movements; Intermodal preferential looking; Prediction; Priming; Shape; Spoken word recognition"],["dc.title","Predicting visual information during sentence processing: Toddlers activate an object’s shape before it is mentioned"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

But what is the extent of this co-activation? In the present study, we asked whether or not bilingual preschool children activate a shared phonological cohort across languages when hearing words only in their L1. We tested German-English children on a cross-modal priming paradigm. To ensure co-activation of languages, children first heard a short code-switch story. Compared to a monolingual control group, bilingual children in Experiment 1 showed only partial sensitivity to the L1 cohort. Bilingual children who did not hear the code-switch story (Experiment 2) showed priming effects identical to the monolinguals in Experiment 1. Results indicate that under single-language contexts, German-English bilingual preschoolers do not activate the non-target language cohort during word recognition but instead restrict cohort activation to the language of input. In contrast, presentation of the non-target language in the code-switch story appears to shift cohort activation and increase L2 activation, suggesting a highly flexible language system that is in tune to the broader linguistic context. We consider mechanisms of bilingual language control that may enable bilingual toddlers to limit cross-language phonological activation."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1075/bpa.2.03bob"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/9976"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.publisher","John Benjamins Publishing"],["dc.publisher.place","Amsterdam"],["dc.relation.crisseries","Bilingual Processing and Acquisition"],["dc.relation.eisbn","978-90-272-6672-9"],["dc.relation.isbn","978-90-272-4372-0"],["dc.relation.ispartof","Cognitive control and consequences in the multilingual mind"],["dc.relation.ispartofseries","Bilingual Processing and Acquisition; 2"],["dc.title","Listening with your cohort: Do bilingual toddlers co-activate cohorts from both languages when hearing words in one language alone?"],["dc.type","book_chapter"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
