“…Given the small language scale, we divided participants into three groups based on their L2 proficiency and the experience of active use of L2: monolinguals were those who could not hold a conversation in L2 and had never actively used their L2s, the Bi-low group were those who used to actively use their L2 but could only hold a basic conversation in L2 at the time of testing (e.g., this could be due to their lesser exposure to and usage of their L2s in their later life), the Bi-high group were those who could hold a conversation in L2 and actively use their L2. We also used an alternative splitting approach following Grundy, Pavlenko, and Bialystok (2020): low and high-proficient bilingual groups were created by averaging bilinguals' L2 proficiency and then doing a median split: participants whose L2 proficiency was below the median were assigned into the Bi-low group and the others were assigned into the Bi-high group. The two approaches to grouping high and low-proficient groups showed the same results.…”

Interference suppression in bilingualism: Stimulus-Stimulus vs. Stimulus-Response conflict

Studies examining the potential effects of bilingualism on interference suppression show inconsistent results. Our study approaches this topic by distinguishing two potential subcomponents within interference suppression (i.e., Stimulus-Stimulus and Stimulus-Response conflict). We investigated the two subcomponents through their operationalisation in different tasks and examined the role of language proficiency in modulating it. A sample of 111 young adult participants performed four non-linguistic cognitive tasks measuring both visual and auditory domains of cognitive control. Bilinguals outperformed monolinguals in tasks involving Stimulus-Stimulus conflict, but showed comparable performance in tasks involving Stimulus-Response conflict. Specific effects of language proficiency on cognitive control were observed: group differences in auditory inhibition and visual orienting were only observed between high-proficient bilinguals and monolinguals. Taken together, types of conflicts involved in interference tasks and language proficiency could differentially affect performance in monolinguals and bilinguals.

“…In other words, the high neural efficiency of athletes is reflected in the reduction in resource input during pre-processing, which ensures that there are enough resources for late-stage advanced cognitive control. However, some studies on working memory have also shown that the P300 amplitude decreases as task complexity or difficulty increases [ 50 , 51 ].…”

Spatial cognition facilitates the successful completion of specific cognitive tasks through lateral processing and neuroplasticity. Long-term training in table tennis induces neural processing efficiency in the visuospatial cognitive processing cortex of athletes. However, the lateralization characteristics and neural mechanisms of visual–spatial cognitive processing in table tennis players in non-sport domains are unclear. This study utilized event-related potentials to investigate differences in the spatial cognition abilities of regular college students (controls) and table tennis players. A total of 48 participants (28 controls; 20 s-level national table tennis players) completed spatial cognitive tasks while electroencephalography data were recorded. Task performance was better in the table tennis group than in the control group (reaction time: P < 0.001; correct number/sec: P = 0.043), P3 amplitude was greater in the table tennis group (P = 0.040), spatial cognition showed obvious lateralization characteristics (P < 0.001), table tennis players showed a more obvious right-hemisphere advantage, and the P3 amplitude in the right hemisphere was significantly greater in table tennis athletes than in the control group. (P = 0.044). Our findings demonstrate a right-hemisphere advantage in spatial cognition. Long-term training strengthened the visual–spatial processing ability of table tennis players, and this advantage effect was reflected in the neuroplasticity of the right hemisphere (the dominant hemisphere for spatial processing).

“…Thirteen studies utilized objective measures of language variables (Barbu et al 2018(Barbu et al , 2020Beatty-Martínez et al 2020;Carter et al 2023;Grundy et al 2020;Han et al 2022;Kałamała et al 2020;Keijzer and Schmid 2016;Kheder and Kaan 2021;Lai and O'Brien 2020;Rodriguez-Fornells et al 2012;Thanissery et al 2020;Xie 2014). Studies that chose to use objective language measures typically did so to measure specific aspects of language use that self-assessment alone cannot gather, such as vocabulary, phonological, or grammatical knowledge (Treffers-Daller 2018).…”

This systematic review explored how researchers operationalized bilingualism when investigating the relationship between bilingual code-switching experience and cognition. Through a PRISMA-guided systematic review of thirty-two studies with original data, published in English, focusing on adult non-clinical samples, with bilingualism as a key variable, we aimed to understand the prevalence of these issues. Criteria for inclusion required an assessment of bilingualism beyond language proficiency or age of acquisition, and consideration of naturalistic code-switching behaviors. We report our results through an analysis of themes that included aspects of language that are considered when measuring bilingualism and code-switching experience. We present our findings and offer insights for future research, advocating for the inclusion of sociocultural factors and more complex analytical modeling in bilingualism research to foster an evolution in the field.
