Due to their experience of managing two languages, it has been suggested that bilinguals could receive more practice in the domain working memory (WM) leading a WM bilingual advantage. Although some studies have shown can outperform monolinguals tasks, investigating capacity provide inconsistent findings regarding existence We therefore conducted meta-analysis on association between bilingualism and capacity.

The phonological similarity effect (or acoustic confusion effect) consists of poor serial recall performance for lists composed similar‐sounding words compared to dissimilar‐sounding items. Building on the work Nairne and Kelley (1999), extent which this classical verbal short‐term memory changes over course a retention interval was investigated. impact time in three paradigms: order reconstruction, recall, free recall. Participants were presented with two blocks 15 five monosyllabic words,...
