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 ...
Language control in bilingual production: Insights from error rate and error type in sentence production
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2021)
Most research showing that cognates are named faster than non-cognates has focused on
isolated word production which might not realistically reflect cognitive demands in
sentence production. Here, we explored whether ...
Cross-linguistic transfer in bilingual reading is item specific
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2021)
The grain size of orthographic representations prompted by a consistent orthography (like
Spanish or Basque) increases if reading is simultaneously learned in another language with
an inconsistent orthography (like ...
The proactive bilingual brain: Using interlocutor identity to generate predictions for language processing
(Scientific Reports, 2016)
The present study investigated the proactive nature of the human brain in language perception.
Specifically, we examined whether early proficient bilinguals can use interlocutor identity as a cue
for language prediction, ...
Cross-modal noise compensation in audiovisual words
(Scientific Reports, 2017)
Perceiving linguistic input is vital for human functioning, but the process is complicated by the fact that the incoming signal is often degraded. However, humans can compensate for unimodal noise by relying on simultaneous ...
The effect of orthographic depth on letter string processing: the case of visual attention span and rapid automatized naming
(Reading and Writing, 2018)
The present study investigated whether orthographic depth can increase the bias towards multi-letter processing in two reading-related skills: visual attention span (VAS) and rapid automatized naming (RAN). VAS (i.e., the ...
Online Adaptation to Altered Auditory Feedback Is Predicted by Auditory Acuity and Not by Domain-General Executive Control Resources
(Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018)
When a speaker's auditory feedback is altered, he adapts for the perturbation by altering his own production, which demonstrates the role of auditory feedback in speech motor control. In the present study, we explored the ...
Functional connectivity reveals dissociable ventrolateral prefrontal mechanisms for the control of multilingual word retrieval
(Human Brain Mapping, 2020)
This functional magnetic resonance imaging study established that different portions of the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (vlPFC) support reactive and proactive language control processes during multilingual word retrieval. ...
Perro or txakur? Bilingual language choice during production is influenced by personal preferences and external primes
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
Bilinguals living in a bilingual society continuously need to choose one of their languages to communicate a
message. Sometimes, the circumstances (e.g., the presence of a monolingual) dictate language choice. When
surrounded ...
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 ...
