Bilingualism Across the Lifespan delves into the intricate realm of conducting cognitive research within a rapidly globalizing and multilingual society. Comprising three comprehensive sections, the book sheds light on the multifaceted and intricate nature of bilingualism. The first section serves as a foundational guide, emphasizing key insights for cognitive psychologists. It explores the profound impact of bilingualism on cognition throughout the lifespan, debunking the notion that bilinguals constitute a unique case and underscoring the significance of bilingualism in cognitive research beyond language. The second section delves into the challenges inherent in bilingual research, encompassing diverse bilingual experiences, proficiency assessment, and the identification of appropriate comparison groups and materials. Finally, the book examines the opportunities that arise when bilingualism is integrated into the cognitive research enterprise. It showcases how researchers leverage theory, methodology, and findings from single-language research, incorporate uniquely bilingual processes or representations, and target populations of bilinguals to establish universal properties.

Drawing upon the expertise of esteemed international contributors, this book offers a profound understanding of the nature of bilingualism and bilingual research as they pertain to human cognition. It serves as a vital resource for researchers and upper-level students specializing in bilingualism and cognitive psychology, providing invaluable insights and perspectives.
