- 'bilingualism fosters a wide range of cognitive advantages that may benefit implicit word learning, and fits with other research that suggests learning more than one language in childhood may benefit overall language development, and may also be associated with other benefits in problem solving and handling complex tasks.'
- 'This research extends findings that often associates bilingualism with greater performance on tests of attention, focus, and memory. The study is the first to demonstrate that bilinguals can learn new words in an indirect or implicit way, and that they are also better at it than single language speakers'
