Mission Statement

Research in the Cognition and Language Laboratory focuses on the interaction among different cognitive functions and language processes in children and adults. The main goal is to examine how various cognitive functions, such as working memory, inhibition, and attentional capacity impact language comprehension and production in different populations. We examine specific cognitive control processes and consider how these develop in monolingual and bilingual individuals, how they may interact with language processing, and how they are affected in specific clinical populations, such as children with language impairment. This research is based primarily on behavioral testing including online tasks, neuropsychological measures, and on physiological approaches, such as pupillometry.

Current Research Projects

Language proficiency in bilingual speakers (conducted virtually)

We are currently conducting a study examining memory and language in bilingual and monolingual children with and without developmental language disorder (DLD). We are looking for children between the ages of 8 and 12 who only speak English and those who speak English and another language. 

 

Testing takes approximately three hours and we compensate participants $10/hour at the end of each session. The testing sessions will take place virtually through a videoconferencing app like Zoom, or in person, at the CUNY Graduate Center, CUNY Brooklyn College, or at a location that is convenient for you and your child.

Joint effect of bilingualism and specific language impairment on children's cognitive control (conducted in-person)

The overall aim of this project is to  examine how different cognitive functions develop in monolingual and bilingual children and to explore how various cognitive processes may interact with language processing and how they are affected in specific clinical populations, such as with language impairment

Dr. Klara Marton

Klara Marton is a neuropsychologist, who has a doctorate in Developmental Psychology and a Ph.D. in Speech and Hearing Sciences. She is interested in the development and changes of language and cognition that occur across lifetime in different clinical populations and in individuals who speak different languages. Her research focuses on the interactions among various cognitive functions, such as working memory, inhibition and attention control and on additional processes that underlie language comprehension and production in monolingual and bilingual speakers.
