Recognition memory for items from unilingual and bilingual lists

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

It was predicted that recognition memory for items from bilingual lists would be superior to that from unilingual lists. Each of 72 bilingual subjects, fluent in English and French, was tested on two unilingual and two bilingual lists. Each list involved a study phase of 20 targets and a test phase of these and 20 distractors. A signal-detection analysis revealed a significantly larger ď value for the bilingual than for the unilingual treatment.
