Abstract

This research examines the influence of bilingualism on cognitive processing through a psycholinguistic approach, focusing on how managing two or more languages impacts cognitive functions such as attention, memory, problem-solving, and decision-making. Bilingualism requires constant monitoring and control of multiple linguistic systems, which enhances executive functions, including cognitive flexibility, inhibition, and task-switching abilities. This study explores the mechanisms behind language switching, cross-linguistic interference, and metalinguistic awareness, highlighting how these processes shape both linguistic and non-linguistic cognitive skills. By analyzing empirical data from behavioral experiments and neuroimaging studies, the research investigates how bilingualism contributes to neural plasticity, delays age-related cognitive decline, and fosters adaptability in complex environments. The findings aim to provide insights into the cognitive advantages of bilingual individuals and their implications for education, cognitive training, and neuropsychological practices. This study contributes to the understanding of the intricate relationship between bilingual language use and cognitive development, emphasizing its significance for interdisciplinary fields such as linguistics, psychology, and neuroscience.

Abstract

This study focuses on the phenomenon of code switching that appears in one of Maudy Ayunda's YouTube videos entitled "Study Hacks Ala Maudy Ayunda", with the aim of describing the types and the functions of code switching used by Maudy Ayunda on her YouTube channel, both of which are analyzed using Hoffman's theory. This study uses a qualitative method with content analysis based on Hoffmann's theory. Data is taken from the video script itself, and the results are calculated using the Sudijono formula. The results of the study after analyzing the video, the author found that there were sixty-five data in the types and functions of code switching. In the types of code switching, intra sentential and intra sentential code switching are the highest types, namely 31 data (47.6%) and tag sentential code switching is the lowest type, namely 3 data (4.6%). Meanwhile, in the code switching function, talking about particular topic is a function of code switching that has the highest data, which is 23 data (35.3%), then followed by intention of clarifying the speech content for interlocutor, which consists of 13 data (20%), then followed by being emphatic about something (express solidarity) and repetition, which is 10 data (15.38%), then followed by interjection and expressing group identity, which each have 4 data (6.15%) and the lowest is quoting somebody else, which is only 1 data (1.53%).
