Changes in White-Matter Connectivity in Late Second Language Learners: Evidence from Diffusion Tensor Imaging
Morphological brain changes as a consequence of new learning have been widely established. Learning a second language (L2) is one such experience that can lead to rapid structural neural changes. However, still relatively little is known about how levels of proficiency in the L2 and the age at which...
