Sentence Interpretation in Bilingual Speakers of English and Chinese.
Hua Liu; And Others
Applied Psycholinguistics, v13 n4 p451-84 Dec 1992
Examines patterns of transfer in the sentence processing strategies displayed by Chinese-English and English-Chinese bilinguals. Results indicate that late bilinguals display strong evidence for forward transfer: late Chinese-English bilinguals transfer animacy-based strategies to English sentences; late Chinese-English bilinguals transfer English-like word order strategies to Chinese.
