Learning language with the wrong neural scaffolding: the cost of neural commitment to sounds
Does tuning to one's native language explain the “sensitive period” for language learning? We explore the idea that tuning to (or becoming more selective for) the properties of one's native-language could result in being less open (or plastic) for tuning to the properties of a new language...
