ERPs provide a non-invasive method to investigate electrophysiological correlates of mental processes. The chapter discusses two protocols relevant to brain plasticity and processing: static/structural scans detailing aspects of specific structures and pathways within the brain, and fMRI scans which can document neural processes both at rest and in relation to stimuli. A number of studies, both longitudinal and cross-sectional, have found brain adaptations to language learning in at a variety of stages of acquisition, from hour, to weeks, to months. Most of the evidence for neuroplasticity in adult second language (L2) acquisition stems from longitudinal and training studies.",
