The bilingual language control literature generally assumes that cross-language interference resolution relies on inhibition of the non-target language. A similar approach has been taken in the bidialectal language control literature. However, there is little evidence along these lines for proactive language control, which entails a control process that is implemented as an anticipation of any cross-language interference. To further investigate the possibility of proactive inhibitory control, we examined the effect of language variety preparation time, by manipulating the cue-to-stimulus interval, on parallel language activation, by manipulating cognate status. If proactive language control relies on inhibition, one would expect less parallel language activation (i.e., a smaller cognate facilitation effect) with increased proactive inhibitory control (i.e., a long cue-to-stimulus interval). This was not the case with either bilinguals or bidialectals. So, the current study does not provide evidence for proactive inhibitory control during bilingual and bidialectal language production.

双语和双方言语言产生过程中是否存在主动抑制控制？


双语语言控制文献通常假设跨语言干扰的解决依赖于对非目标语言的抑制。双方言语言控制文献中也采取了类似的方法。然而，很少有证据表明主动语言控制，这需要一个控制过程，作为对任何跨语言干扰的预期而实施。为了进一步研究主动抑制控制的可能性，我们通过操纵提示刺激间隔来检查语言多样性准备时间对并行语言激活的影响，通过操纵同源状态。如果主动语言控制依赖于抑制，人们会期望较少的并行语言激活（即较小的同源促进效应）与增加的主动抑制控制（即较长的提示刺激间隔）。双语者或双方言的情况并非如此。因此，目前的研究没有为双语和双方言语言产生期间的主动抑制控制提供证据。
