Abstract:
Several investigations report a positive effect of childhood bilingualism on executive control (EC). An issue that has remained largely unexamined is the role of the typological distance between the languages spoken by bilinguals. In the present study we focus on children who grow up with Cypriot Greek and Standard Modern Greek, two closely related varieties that differ from each other on all levels of language analysis (vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar). We compare the EC performance of such bilectal children to that of English-Greek multilingual children in Cyprus and Standard Modern Greek-speaking monolingual children in Greece. A principal component analysis on six indicators of EC revealed two distinct factors, which we interpreted as representing working memory and inhibition. Multilingual and bilectal children exhibited an advantage over monolinguals that was evident across EC factors and emerged only after statistically controlling for their lower language proficiency. These results demonstrate ... : arts of this research have been funded by an ESF Experimental Pragmatics Network (Euro-XPrag) collaborative grant to all authors, an ESRC Experimental Pragmatics Network in the UK (XPrag-UK; RES-810-21-0069), a Cambridge Humanities Grant, and an Isaac Newton Trust Research Grant to the first and fourth authors, and an Alexander Onassis Foundation scholarship for graduate studies to the first author. ...
