Neuromagnetic measures of word processing in bilinguals and monolinguals

Research highlights ► This is the first MEG study to investigate the spatio-temporal and frequency characteristics between bilinguals and monolinguals during a word-match paradigm. ► Mandarin-English bilingual speakers show stronger beta-band power suppression in the right supramarginal area when pr...

Zusammenfassung:	Research highlights ► This is the first MEG study to investigate the spatio-temporal and frequency characteristics between bilinguals and monolinguals during a word-match paradigm. ► Mandarin-English bilingual speakers show stronger beta-band power suppression in the right supramarginal area when processing Mandarin. ► Results are potentially beneficial in determining language lateralization in epilepsy surgical candidates who are bilingual speakers.
