Abstract:
How bilinguals’ experience in managing multiple languages in different communicative contexts influences the cognitive and neural aspects of executive functions remains unclear. Therefore, we examined whether variations in language experience in young adult bilinguals were associated with data-driven brain functional network patterns defined by performance during executive control tasks. Multiple aspects of language experience, such as the extent of balanced bilingualism in language proficiency and usage, and language diversity across social contexts were assessed. Our findings underscore the important role of language diversity in influencing bilinguals’ neurocognitive characteristics of executive functioning.
