Theories of how bilinguals represent information have been conceived in terms of either a single, language-independent code or 'dual, language-specific codes. In this study, Spanish-English bilinguals exhibited both a language-independent and a language-specific pattern of results under identical study conditions depending on the retrieval demands of a task. With the data-driven task of word fragment completion, language specificity was observed. With the conceptually driven task of free recall, language-independence was generally observed. Results from a yes/no test of recognition memory were interpreted as reflecting both types of processing. The issue of whether bilinguals store information in one or two codes seems indeterminable, because the varying retrieval demands of different tasks produce different patterns of results and lead to opposite conclusions, Rather, a transfer appropriate processing framework-in which performance on retention tests is shown to benefit to the extent to which procedures required on the test recapitulate those employed during encoding-provides a more fruitful analysis.
