About me:

I received a BA in English education from South China Normal University and gained my MA and PhD in psycholinguistics from National Key Research Center for Linguistics and Applied Linguistics at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies. I visited the Multilingualism and Decision-making Lab at the University of Chicago for one year.

I am interested in individual differences in bilingual language processing/development. My doctoral dissertation investigated the role of working memory in second language processing and development and was awarded the excellent doctoral dissertation of Guangdong province in 2013. Currently I am working on three projects: 1) individual differences in phonological attainment, 2) the effect of foreign language use on decision-making, and 3) language processing and social cognition.
