Project description
The present proposal aims to investigate whether a dificit in cognitive control underlies selective/differential recovery in bilingual aphasia. We will do this by studying control mechanisms and effects of interacting lexicons in aphasia patients, monolinguals an bilinguals. We expect patients to show no deficient effects of interacting lexicons, but a cognitive control deficit.
