The Importance of Recognizing Social Contexts in Research on Bilingualism
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In their recent keynote, Titone and Tiv (2022) make a call for scientists to consider bilingualism in the social contexts where the languages are used. Situated in multilingual Montréal and bringing unique positionalities, Titone and Tiv have provided converging perspectives that cognitive and linguistic behavior is symbiotic. The biological reference is intentional, referring to both the individual and her environment to be living and interactional. Beyond the methodological and analytical recommendations addressed in the keynote, we intend to reinforce this position with two points: (1) bilingual experience is interactional; and (2) we argue that outcomes of comparisons of monolinguals to bilinguals will vary across contexts. This latter argument has implications for replicability. [...]

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
