  • Summary

    This chapter reviews the current state of knowledge with regards to language control in bilingual aphasia. First, an overview of bilingual language processing and language control in healthy bilinguals is provided. Then, language impairment and recovery patterns in bilingual aphasia are discussed and the influence of language control and linguistic similarity are highlighted. Next, the relationship between bilingual language control and cognitive control is reviewed with attention given to the potential overlap between linguistic and nonlinguistic control mechanisms. Then, case studies and experiments that specifically examine linguistic and nonlinguistic control processes in bilingual aphasia are discussed, focusing on a variety of tasks and methodologies used to examine these processes. Finally, the chapter is concluded by discussing the role of language control in treatment and, specifically, its role in cross-language generalization.
