“…However, evidence suggests that maintaining more than one language in a single cognitive system introduces some subtle but significant processing costs. When compared to their monolingual peers, bilinguals have more tip-of-the-tongue or TOT retrieval failures (Gollan & Acenas, 2004;Gollan, Bonanni, & Montoya, 2005;Gollan & Silverberg, 2001, but see Gollan & Brown, 2006), have reduced category fluency (Gollan, Montoya, & Werner, 2002;Portocarrero, Burright, & Donovick, 2007;Rosselli et al, 2000), name pictures more slowly (Gollan, Montoya, Fennema-Notestine, & Morris, 2005), and name fewer pictures correctly on standardized naming tests such as the Boston Naming Test (Kohnert, Hernandez, & Bates, 1998;Roberts, Garcia, Desrochers, & Hernandez, 2002;Gollan, Fennema-Notestine, Montoya, & Jernigan, 2007). Importantly, bilingual naming disadvantages were found even when bilinguals were tested exclusively in their dominant language (e.g., Gollan & Acenas, 2004;, and more recently in bilinguals who are dominant in their first-learned language (Ivanova & Costa, in press; many of the bilinguals in the studies by Gollan et al, were dominant in their secondlearned language).…”
