Lexical representations are malleable for about one second: Evidence for the non-automaticity of perceptual recalibration
(Cognitive Psychology, 2016)
In listening to speech, people have been shown to apply several
types of adjustment to their phonemic categories that take into
account variations in the prevailing linguistic environment. These
adjustments include ...
Testing the connections within face processing circuitry in Capgras delusion with diffusion imaging tractography
(NeuroImage: Clinical, 2016)
Although Capgras delusion (CD) patients are capable of recognizing familiar faces, they present a delusional belief that some relatives have been replaced by impostors. CD has been explained as a selective disruption of a ...
Interactions between phasic alerting and consciousness in the fronto-striatal network
(Scientific Reports, 2016)
Only a small fraction of all the information reaching our senses can be the object of conscious report
or voluntary action. Although some models propose that different attentional states (top-down
amplification and ...
Not everybody sees the ness in the darkness: individual differences in masked suffix priming
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
The present study explores the role of individual differences in polymorphemic word recognition. Participants completed a masked priming lexical decision experiment on suffixed words in which targets could be preceded by ...
Asymmetric Switch Costs in Numeral Naming and Number Word Reading: Implications for Models of Bilingual Language Production
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2016)
One approach used to gain insight into the processes underlying bilingual language comprehension and production examines the costs that arise from switching languages. For unbalanced bilinguals, asymmetric switch costs are ...
Effects of PSA Removal from NCAM on the Critical Period Plasticity Triggered by the Antidepressant Fluoxetine in the Visual Cortex
(Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016)
Neuronal plasticity peaks during critical periods of postnatal development and is reduced
towards adulthood. Recent data suggests that windows of juvenile-like plasticity can
be triggered in the adult brain by antidepressant ...
Altered cross-frequency coupling in resting-state MEG after mild traumatic brain injury
(International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2016)
Cross-frequency coupling (CFC) is thought to represent a basic mechanism of functional integration of neural networks across distant brain regions. In this study, we analyzed CFC profiles from resting state Magnetoencephalographic ...
Putting concepts into context
(Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2016)
At first glance, conceptual representations (e.g., our
internal notion of the object Blemon^) seem static; we have the
impression that there is something that the concept lemon
Bmeans^ (a sour, yellow, football-shaped ...
The Emotional Impact of Being Myself: Emotions and Foreign-Language Processing
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016)
Native languages are acquired in emotionally rich contexts, whereas foreign languages are typically
acquired in emotionally neutral academic environments. As a consequence of this difference, it has been
suggested that ...
Do handwritten words magnify lexical effects in visual word recognition?
(The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2016)
An examination of how the word recognition system is able to process handwritten words is fundamental to formulate a comprehensive model of visual word recognition. Previous research has revealed that the magnitude of ...
