Comparing the potential of MEG and EEG to uncover brain tracking of speech temporal envelope
(NeuroImage, 2019)
During connected speech listening, brain activity tracks speech rhythmicity at delta (∼0.5 Hz) and theta (4–8 Hz) frequencies. Here, we compared the potential of magnetoencephalography (MEG) and high-density electroencephalography ...
Bilingual Preschoolers ’ Speech is Associated with Non-Native Maternal Language Input
(Language Learning and Development, 2019)
Bilingual children are often exposed to non-native speech through their parents. Yet, little is known about the relation between bilingual preschoolers’ speech production and their speech input. The present study investigated ...
Is the LAN effect in morphosyntactic processing an ERP artifact?
(Brain and Language, 2019)
The left anterior negativity (LAN) is an ERP component that has been often associated with morphosyntactic processing, but recent reports have questioned whether the LAN effect, in fact, exists. The present project examined ...
The role of preview validity in predictability and frequency effects on eye movements in reading
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019)
A word’s predictability, as measured by its cloze probability, has a robust influence on the time a reader’s eyes spend on the word, with more predictable words receiving shorter fixations. However, several previous studies ...
Implementing EEG hyperscanning setups
(MethodsX, 2019)
Hyperscanning refers to obtaining simultaneous neural recordings from more than one person (Montage et al., 2002 [1]), that can be used to study interactive situations. In particular, hyperscanning with Electroencephalography ...
Metacognitive scaffolding boosts cognitive and neural benefits following executive attention training in children
(Developmental Science, 2019)
Interventions including social scaffolding and metacognitive strategies have been used in
educational settings to promote cognition. In addition, increasing evidence shows that
computerized process-based
training enhances ...
Making sense of social interaction: Emotional coherence drives semantic integration as assessed by event-related potentials
(Neuropsychologia, 2019)
We compared event-related potentials during sentence reading, using impression formation equations of a model of affective coherence, to investigate the role of affective content processing during meaning making. The model ...
Talker and Acoustic Variability in Learning to Produce Nonnative Sounds: Evidence from Articulatory Training
(Language Learning, 2019)
Compared to low‐variability training, high‐variability training leads to better learning outcomes and supports generalization of learning. However, it is unclear whether the learning advantage is driven by multiple talkers ...
Neural substrates of subphonemic variation and lexical competition in spoken word recognition
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2019)
In spoken word recognition, subphonemic variation influences lexical activation, with sounds near a category boundary increasing phonetic competition as well as lexical competition. The current study investigated the ...
How much do visual cues help listeners in perceiving accented speech?
(Applied Psycholinguistics, 2019)
It has been documented that lipreading facilitates the understanding of difficult speech, such as noisy speech and time-compressed speech. However, relatively little work has addressed the role of visual information in ...
