Language control in trilinguals

Studies on third language (L3) acquisition suggest that L3 learners experience more L2→L3 than L1àL3 interference despite the L1 being the most proficient language. However, little is known about how a trilingual’s languages interact after the initial stages of language learning. In a series of three experiments in two studies, we investigated the influence of the L3 and the L1 on L2 production (Study 1; two experiments with Spanish-Basque-English and English-French-Spanish trilinguals), and the influence of the L3 on L1 and L2 production (Study 2; one experiment with Spanish-Basque-English trilinguals). Study 1 showed more L3 than L1 lexical intrusions during L2 speeded naming (L3→L2 stronger than L1àL2), possibly because trilinguals apply more inhibition over their L1 than over their L3 when speaking in L2. Study 2 showed more L3 phonetic and lexical influence during L2 production than during L1 production (L3→L2 stronger than L3àL1). Taken together, those studies reveal a stronger link between two non-native languages than between any of those non-native languages and the L1 (L3-L2 link stronger than L3-L1 or L2-L1 link).

Speakers have given everything from practice talks for conferences, job talks, or degree requirements to any new research they want feedback from the CRL community on! Talks are typically 45 min with ~10 min for questions. We love hearing from new grad students and faculty, but you are always welcome to present again!
