The question whether bilingualism is linked to benefits in
cognitive control (executive functions) is intensely debated among
linguists. While some studies come to the conclusion that bilingual
individuals consistently outperform their monolingual counterparts
on tasks involving cognitive control, other studies argue that
there is no coherent evidence showing that bilingual advantages
actually exist. This opposing view results from two inadequately
investigated perspectives, namely the complexities of bilingualism
and the multifaceted nature of cognitive control. This publication
combines these two perspectives and presents a new approach towards
the analysis of bilingual advantage. It discusses the results of a
combined analysis of both specific bilingual experiences and
specific aspects of cognitive control.
