Beyond Alzheimer’s Disease: Bilingualism and Other Types of Neurodegeneration

2019-12-17

Abstract excerpt

<p>Bilingualism has been argued to have an impact on cognition and brain structure. Such effects have been reported in healthy children and young adults, but also in ageing adults, including clinical ageing populations. For example, bilingualism may significantly contribute to the delaying of the expression of Alzheimer’s dementia symptoms. If bilingualism plays an ameliorative role against neurodegeneration, it i...
