Seeing a Talking Face Matters: Gaze Behavior and the Auditory–Visual Speech Benefit in Adults’ Cortical Tracking of Infant-directed Speech
(MIT PRESS, 2023)
In face-to-face conversations, listeners gather visual speech information from a speaker's talking face that enhances their perception of the incoming auditory speech signal. This auditory-visual (AV) speech benefit is ...
Neural dynamics supporting longitudinal plasticity of action naming across languages: MEG evidence from bilingual brain tumor patients
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
Previous evidence suggests that distinct ventral and dorsal streams respectively underpin the semantic processing
of object and action knowledge. Recently, we found that brain tumor patients with dorsal gliomas in ...
Underrated past herbivore densities could lead to misoriented sustainability policies.
(npj Biodiversity, 2023-01-06)
Knowing the carrying capacity of the Earth’s grazed ecosystems, and the relevance of herbivory, is important for many scientific disciplines, as well as for policy. Current herbivore levels are estimated to be four to five ...
A global meta-analysis of the impacts of forest fragmentation on biotic mutualisms and antagonisms
(Conservation Biology, 2023)
Forest fragmentation is a grave threat to biodiversity. Forests are becoming increasingly fragmented with more than 70% now < 1 km from forest edge. Although much is known about the effects of forest fragmentation on ...
Pupillometry reveals differences in cognitive demands of listening to face mask-attenuated speech
(ASA, 2023)
Face masks offer essential protection but also interfere with speech communication. Here, audio-only sentences spoken through four types of masks were presented in noise to young adult listeners. Pupil dilation (an index ...
A data-driven approach to analyse the co-evolution of urban systems through a resilience lens: A Helsinki case study
(Environment and Planning B: Urban Analytics and City Science, 2024)
Urban areas are dynamic systems, in which different infrastructural, social and economic subsystems
continuously co-evolve. As such, disruptions in one system can propagate to another.
However, open challenges remain in ...
Hemodynamic Deconvolution Demystified: Sparsity-Driven Regularization at Work
(OHBM, 2023)
Deconvolution of the hemodynamic response is an important step to access short timescales of brain activity recorded by functional
magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Albeit conventional deconvolution algorithms have been ...
Multidimensional Signals and Analytic Flexibility: Estimating Degrees of Freedom in Human-Speech Analyses
(SAGE, 2023)
Recent empirical studies have highlighted the large degree of analytic flexibility in data analysis that can lead to substantially different conclusions based on the same data set. Thus, researchers have expressed their ...
Effects of maternal depression on maternal responsiveness and infants’ expressive language abilities
(PLOS, 2023)
High levels of maternal responsiveness are associated with healthy cognitive and emotional
development in infants. However, depression and anxiety can negatively impact individual
mothers’ responsiveness levels and ...
Features matter: the role of number and gender features during the online processing of subject- and object- relative clauses in Italian
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)
In this study, we investigated whether different morphosyntactic features, i.e. number and gender, play a role during the adult online comprehension of subject relative clauses (SRC) and object relative clauses (ORC), in ...
