Mental Control of the Bilingual Lexico-Semantic System.

Green, David W.

Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, v1 n2 p67-81 Aug 1998

Aims to foster discussion of the means by which bilinguals control their two language systems. Proposes an inhibitory control model that embodies the principle that there are multiple levels of control. The model is used to expand the explanation of the effect of category blocking in translation proposed by Kroll and Stewart (1994). (Author/VWL)
