Intermodality differences in statistical learning: phylogenetic and ontogenetic influences
(WILEY, 2022)
In Basque–Spanish bilinguals, statistical learning (SL) in the visual modality was more efficient on nonlinguistic
than linguistic input; in the auditory modality, we found the reverse pattern of results.We hypothesize ...
Mental Representation of Word Family Structure: The Case of German Infinitives, Conversion Nouns and Other Morphologically Related Forms
(Frontiers, 2022)
This study investigates how two non-finite forms, infinitives and conversion nouns, are represented in the mind of L1 and L2 speakers and what is their relationship to other members of the corresponding word family. German ...
Virtual Reality pitch ranking in children with cochlear implants, hearing aids or normal hearing
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
When listening to music, one uses the hearing to identify all musical
elements such as pitches, musical intervals, melodies, chords, rhythms,
and timbre [1]. To determine the notes in a melody, it is critical to have
the ...
The impact of orthographic forms on speech production and perception: An artificial vowel-learning study
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
This study investigates the effect of orthographic forms on phonetic aspects of isolated speech sound production
and perception. Three groups of 25 L1-Spanish speakers were exposed to /y/ and /e/ in a multi-session ...
Rhythms in cognition: The evidence revisited
(WILEY, 2022)
Brain activity abounds with rhythmic patterns (Capilla et al., 2021; Groppe et al., 2013; Keitel & Gross, 2016) that reflect ongoing fluctuations of neuronal excitability (Adrian & Matthews, 1934; Bishop, 1932). These ...
Genome-wide analyses of individual differences in quantitatively assessed reading- and language-related skills in up to 34,000 people
(PNAS, 2022)
The use of spoken and written language is a fundamental human capacity. Individual differences
in reading- and language-related skills are influenced by genetic variation, with
twin-based heritability estimates of 30 to ...
Subliminal Priming Effects of Masked Social Hierarchies During a Categorization Task: An Event-Related Brain Potentials Study
(Frontiers, 2022)
Evidence so far shows that status detection increases attentional resources, especially
for high hierarchies. However, little is known about the effects of masked social status
cues on cognition. Here, we explore the ...
The effect of regular rhythm on the perception of linguistic and non-linguistic auditory input
(WILEY, 2022)
Regular distribution of auditory stimuli over time can facilitate perception and attention.
However, such effects have to date only been observed in separate studies using
either linguistic or non-linguistic materials. ...
Typological Differences Influence the Bilingual Advantage in Metacognitive Processing
(APA American Psychological Association, 2022)
Previous studies showed a bilingual advantage in metacognitive processing (tracking one’s own cognitive
performance) in linguistic tasks. However, bilinguals do not constitute a homogeneous population,
and it was unclear ...
Is there such a thing as a ‘good statistical learner’?
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
A growing body of research investigates individual differences in the learning of
statistical structure, tying them to variability in cognitive (dis)abilities. This
approach views statistical learning (SL) as a general ...
