An ERP investigation of accented isolated single word processing
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
Previous studies show that there are differences in native and non-native speech processing (Lev-Ari, 2018).
However, less is known about the differences between processing native and dialectal accents. Is dialectal
processing ...
Enhanced top-down sensorimotor processing in somatic anxiety
(SPRINGER, 2022)
Functional neuroimaging research on anxiety has traditionally focused on brain networks associated with the psychological aspects of anxiety. Here, instead, we target the somatic aspects of anxiety. Motivated by the growing ...
The role of metacognition in monitoring performance and regulating learning in early readers
(SPRINGER, 2022)
Metacognition refers to the capacity to reflect upon our own cognitive processes. Its contribution
to reading development, when children start building their orthographic lexicon,
still remains unknown. Here, we evaluate ...
Frontopolar activity carries feature information of novel stimuli during unconscious reweighting of selective attention
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
Adapting to novelty is essential for an organism's survival in an uncertain world. Neuroimaging
evidence consistently links the anterior prefrontal, specifically the frontopolar
cortex (FPC; BA10), to exploratory reweighting ...
Conflict monitoring and attentional adjustment during binocular rivalry
(WILEY, 2022)
To make sense of ambiguous and, at times, fragmentary sensory input, the brain must rely on a process of active interpretation. At any given moment, only one of several possible perceptual representations prevails in our ...
Gepo with a G, or Jepo with a J? Skilled Readers Generate Orthographic Expectations for Novel Spoken Words Even When Spelling is Uncertain
(WILEY, 2022)
English-speaking children and adults generate orthographic skeletons (i.e., preliminary orthographic
representations) solely from aural exposure to novel words. The present study examined whether
skilled readers generate ...
When A Nonnative Accent Lets You Spot All the Errors: Examining the Syntactic Interlanguage Benefit
(MIT PRESS, 2022)
In our continuously globalizing world, cross-cultural and cross-linguistic communications are far from exceptional. A wealth of research has indicated that the processing of nonnative-accented speech can be challenging for ...
Cross-modal and cross-language activation in bilinguals reveals lexical competition even when words or signs are unheard or unseen
(PNAS, 2022)
We exploit the phenomenon of cross-modal, cross-language activation to examine the
dynamics of language processing. Previous within-language work showed that seeing a
sign coactivates phonologically related signs, just ...
One-to-One or One Too Many? Linking Sound-to-Letter Mappings to Speech Sound Perception and Production in Early Readers
(ASHA, 2022)
Purpose: Effects related to literacy acquisition have been observed at different
levels of speech processing. This study investigated the link between orthographic
knowledge and children’s perception and production of ...
Speaker Accent Modulates the Effects of Orthographic and Phonological Similarity on Auditory Processing by Learners of English
(Frontiers, 2022)
The cognate effect refers to translation equivalents with similar form between
languages—i.e., cognates, such as “band” (English) and “banda” (Spanish)—being
processed faster than words with dissimilar forms—such as, ...
