Psycholinguistic approaches to production and comprehension in bilingual
adults and children
Research in psycholinguistics has traditionally focused exclusively on either
language production or language comprehension. This has led to informative
developments in each of these areas, addressing important research questions.
Recently, however, psycholinguistics researchers have started emphasizing the
need for a unified account, reconciling production and comprehension processes
within one model (Pickering & Garrod, 2014). Empirical evidence supporting
these integrative theories is beginning to emerge (e.g., Silbert, Honey,
Simony, Poeppel & Hasson, 2014), but far more work remains to be done. In
particular, relatively little is yet known about the relationship between
production and comprehension in bilinguals. It is widely accepted that
bilingual production and comprehension are nonselective with respect to a
bilingual's languages during language processing in either language (e.g.
Blumenfeld & Marian 2007). Research on bilingual codeswitching has also
provided important insights into the interaction between bilingual production
and comprehension processes (e.g., Fricke, Kroll & Dussias, 2016, Guzzardo
Tamargo, Valdés Kroff & Dussias, 2016). However, many issues in the field
remain unresolved.

The proposed spotlight issue intends to fill this gap by focusing on the
latest research results on bilingual child or/and adult production and
comprehension. We welcome contributions that provide data integrating the two
modalities, as well as those presenting either comprehension or production
data and comparing them with existing findings obtained in the other modality.
This includes studies in a variety of linguistic phenomena across different
language domains (i.e. syntax, morphology, semantics, phonology, lexicon,
pragmatics, and their interfaces). 

The issue will consist of articles of 9,000 words each (references included),
selected from among the submitted manuscripts. Manuscripts should conform to
the Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism submission guidelines, and should be
submitted through the Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism manuscript central
site (http://www.editorialmanager.com/lab/default.aspx). Manuscripts will be
reviewed by three reviewers through the double blind-review system.
Manuscripts that are successful in the review process but are not included in
the spotlight issue will have the opportunity to be published as individual
articles in Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism.

The deadline for submission is March 1st, 2017.

Prospective authors are encouraged to email the issue editors to discuss
potential contributions: Maialen Iraola Azpiroz

Kalliopi Katsika (kkatsika at gmail.com), and Leigh Fernandez
