Experiments conducted with English monolinguals and Chinese-English bilinguals
Trial types included semantically congruent and incongruent classifiers
Better performance was observed in semantically congruent trials for monolinguals
Bilinguals showed varied effects based on the language
Language-switch costs were lower in congruent trials for bilinguals
