DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The general goal of the proposed research is to use the bilingual as a vehicle to illuminate the basic cognitive processes that serve as the interface between memory and language. The specific goal is to examine the factors that modulate the competition that arises when the bilingual's two languages are active during language comprehension and production. How does a bilingual read and speak words in one language when words in the other language are available and active? The planned studies have three aims. One is to identify the conditions that give rise to cross-language competition. Each of the experiments involves the comprehension or production of words in Li, L2, or under mixed conditions in which the two languages are directly competing with one another. A second aim of the proposed experiments is to identify the factors that modulate lexical activation in each language. If a bilingual's two languages are always active to some degree, then it becomes critical to understand how the resulting competition is resolved to allow selection of a single word in the target language. A third goal is to understand more fully the component processes that are engaged in translation. The goal of the proposed research is to use a range of converging approaches to answer these questions and to obtain evidence that will eventually constrain a unified model of the bilingual lexicon.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议研究的一般目标 是使用双语作为灯具来照亮基本认知的工具 作为内存和语言之间接口的过程。具体 目标是检查调节竞争时发生的因素 双语的两种语言在语言理解过程中是活跃的，并且 生产。双语如何用一种语言读和说单词 其他语言中的单词可用且活跃？计划研究有 三个目标。一种是确定引起跨语言的条件 竞赛。每个实验都涉及理解或生产 li，l2或两种语言的混合条件下的单词 直接互相竞争。拟议实验的第二个目标 是确定调节每种语言词汇激活的因素。 如果双语的两种语言在某种程度上总是活跃的，那么 了解如何解决结果的竞争至关重要 允许在目标语言中选择一个单词。第三个目标是 更充分地了解参与翻译的组件过程。 拟议研究的目的是使用一系列融合方法 回答这些问题并获得最终限制的证据 双语词典的统一模型。
