General Research Overview
Mathew’s research largely focuses on aspects of lexico-semantic development in late, second language learners utilising electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) techniques. More recently and as part of his Ph.D. work, Mathew has begun research involving bidialectals (those who speak and are exposed to two or more dialects), and the effects of dialect on literacy and reading in children and adults.
