Is it easier to use one language variety at a time, or mix them? An investigation of voluntary language switching with bidialectals.

Previous language production research with bidialectals has provided evidence for similar language control processes as during bilingual language production. In the current study, we aim to further investigate this claim by examining bidialectals with a voluntary language switching paradigm. Researc...
