Within- and cross-language repetition priming in verb generation: evidence from non-proficient Chinese-English bilinguals.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The present study aims to investigate the repetition priming within and across languages in verbs among non-proficient Chinese-English bilinguals, using a verb generation task. The impact of levels of processing on repetition priming was also examined. A total of 160 non-proficient Chinese-English bilinguals participated in the experiments, generating English verbs (Experiment 1) or Chinese verbs (Experiment 2) that corresponded to the same set of 50 translation-equivalent nouns across the two languages. The results revealed significant within-language repetition priming in both deep- and shallow-encoding conditions, whereas significant cross-language repetition priming was only observed in the deep-encoding condition. Within-language repetition priming was significantly greater compared to cross-language repetition priming. In addition, repetition priming within L2 English was significantly greater than that within L1 Chinese under deep-encoding condition. Cross-language priming showed a directional asymmetry, with stronger priming from Chinese to English than from English to Chinese. These results largely indicate that verb concepts are shared across the two typologically distant languages for non-proficient Chinese-English bilinguals. Notably, the repetition priming in verbs was modulated by levels of processing, with larger priming in the deep-encoding condition than in the shallow-encoding condition.
