As well, potential differences between the lexical organization of bilinguals and trilingual were examined. Previous research has revealed that language dominance and proficiency play a crucial role in intra- and interlanguage interference. Typically, interlingual interference originates from the dominant language (L1) ; however, as proficiency in the non-dominant …

Forming a vital part of any educational system, social science not only helps societies define themselves but also to identify, and indeed generate, possibilities of what they might become. Whether by transmitting or challenging conceptions of the nature of a society's relation to its members or to other societies, or by raising pertinent questions regarding these issues, what is done--or not done--in the social sciences is likely …
