Bilingualism: A framework for understanding the mental lexicon
Edited by Maya Libben, Mira Goral and Gary Libben †
In the world today, bilingualism is more common than monolingualism. Thus, the default mental lexicon may in fact be the bilingual lexicon. More than ever, social and technological innovation have created a situation in which lexical knowledge may change dramatically throughout an individual’s… read more[Bilingual Processing and Acquisition, 6] 2017. xvii, 252 pp.
2025 Acquisition of noun plurals in Egyptian‑Arabic speaking children: Using language corpora to inform language milestones Selected Papers from the 37th Annual Symposium on Arabic Linguistics, Khamis, Reem and Mira Goral (eds.), pp. 168–187 | Article
Research investigating Arabic-speaking children’s acquisition of noun plurals is emerging. Researchers hypothesize that, consistent with a single-route model of morphological processing, children rely more on concatenative than on non-concatenative morphological processes. This is expected… read more

2018 What does constituent priming mean in the investigation of compound processing? The Mental Lexicon 13:2, pp. 269–284 | Article

This chapter reviews findings from bilingual individuals who… read more
2017 Morphological integration and the bilingual lexicon Bilingualism: A framework for understanding the mental lexicon, Libben, Maya, Mira Goral and Gary Libben † (eds.), pp. 197–216 | Chapter
In English, as in most of the world’s languages, the majority of words are multimorphemic. In the psycholinguistic literature on lexical processing in bilinguals, however, multimorphemic words have thus far received relatively little treatment. In this chapter, we discuss the opportunities that the… read more

We conducted multivariate random-effect analyses on longitudinal data from 238 adults, ranging in age from 30 to 94, who were tested on five lexical tests over a period of 20 years to examine (a) the relations between lemma and lexeme retrieval as manifested in different tests of lexical retrieval… read more
