Consensus Goals in the Field of Visual Metacognition
(SAGE, 2022)
Despite the tangible progress in psychological and cognitive sciences over the last several years, these disciplines still trail
other more mature sciences in identifying the most important questions that need to be solved. ...
Decoding the Meaning of Unconsciously Processed Words Using fMRI-based MVPA
(NeuroImage, 2019)
Does the human brain elicit patterns of activity associated with the meaning of words in the absence of conscious awareness? Do such non-conscious semantic representations generalize across languages? This study aimed to ...
Neurocognitive mechanisms supporting the generalization of concepts across languages
(Neuropsychologia, 2021)
The neurocognitive mechanisms that support the generalization of semantic representations across different
languages remain to be determined. Current psycholinguistic models propose that semantic representations are
likely ...
Decoding and encoding models reveal the role of mental simulation in the brain representation of meaning
(Royal Society Open Science, 2020)
How the brain representation of conceptual knowledge varies
as a function of processing goals, strategies and task-factors
remains a key unresolved question in cognitive neuroscience.
In the present functional magnetic ...
Heat exposure following encoding can interfere with subsequent recognition memory
(NATURE, 2023)
Correlational studies suggest that high temperatures may impair online cognitive performance and learning processes. Here, we tested the hypothesis that heat exposure blocks offline memory consolidation. We report two ...
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 ...
The Scientific Study of Consciousness Cannot and Should Not Be Morally Neutral
(SAGE, 2023)
A target question for the scientific study of consciousness is how dimensions of consciousness, such as the ability to
feel pain and pleasure or reflect on one’s own experience, vary in different states and animal species. ...
Metacognition in Second Language Speech Perception and Production
(WILEY, 2023)
In this study, we assessed metacognition in nonnative language speech perception and production. Spanish novice learners of French identified and produced the French vowel contrast /ø/–/œ/ and, on each trial, rated their ...
Using serial dependence to predict confidence across observers and cognitive domains
(SPRINGER, 2023)
Our perceptual system appears hardwired to exploit regularities of input features across space and time in seemingly stable
environments. This can lead to serial dependence effects whereby recent perceptual representations ...
