Funny: Greater proficiency in the foreign language seems to reduce the effect. (figure 3 in the publication)
Makes sense. The more fluent you are the less "foreign" the language is to you.
This fits in with the recent post about the need to first 'believe' something before rejecting it (can't find it). The better you get in a (foreign) language the less you consciously reflect on it's content and thus the less chance to reject it you get.
