摘要：

近50年来的语言神经科学研究确认了双(多)语经验的认知效应。就10年来双(多)语经验抵御老年痴呆症(特别是阿尔茨海默症, AD)的研究成果进行了深入探讨, 并基于认知储备(cognitive reserve)理论, 从功能和结构两方面探讨了双语(多语)经验抵御AD的神经机制。从外语的类型、熟悉程度、开始习得年龄, 以及研究方法等角度提出了要解决的问题, 旨在推动外语学习和教学, 并为老年化疾病和跨学科语言学研究提供新的思路。

关键词: 双(多)语经验, 阿尔茨海默症, 认知储备, 跨学科语言学

Abstract:

Research in neurolinguistics in the past 50 years has demonstrated the cognitive effects of bilingualism (or multilingualism). In this review we focus on the research over the past 10 years on the effect of bilingual or multilingual experiences in resisting Alzheimer's disease (AD). The possible neural mechanisms underlying such effect are explored under the theory of Cognitive Reserve. Some unsolved questions about language types, proficiency, age of learning and research methodologies are also raised for further discussion. The implication of these findings in helping prevent or delay AD, in promoting second language learning and teaching, and in offering insights into future research on interdisciplinary linguistics are also discussed.

Key words: bilingualism (multilingualism), Alzheimer's disease, cognitive reserve, interdisciplinary linguistics
