文摘

Monolingual and bilingual older adults were compared on 3 cognitive control tasks. Language group differences were demonstrated, but were variable, across the 3 tasks. Electrophysiological measures may detect more subtle language group differences. Language group differences may be more evident in older than younger adults. The Stroop, Simon, and flanker cognitive control tasks are not inter-changeable.
