Studies have shown that bilingual individuals tend to have higher scores in areas related to cognitive flexibility, such as task switching and problem solving, compared to monolingual individuals. While some studies have also shown a correlation between bilingualism and intelligence, it is not as consistent as the correlation with cognitive flexibility.
