Does orthographic processing emerge rapidly after learning a new script?
(British Journal of Psychology, 2021)
Orthographic processing is characterized by location-invariant and location-specific processing (Grainger, 2018): (1) strings of letters are more vulnerable to transposition effects than the strings of symbols in same-different ...
Evidence and implications of abnormal predictive coding in dementia
(Brain, 2021)
The diversity of cognitive deficits and neuropathological processes associated with dementias has encouraged divergence
in pathophysiological explanations of disease. Here, we review an alternative framework that emphasizes ...
Idiosyncratic use of bottom-up and top-down information leads to differences in speech perception flexibility: Converging evidence from ERPs and eye-tracking
(Brain and Language, 2021)
Listeners generally categorize speech sounds in a gradient manner. However, recent work, using a visual
analogue scaling (VAS) task, suggests that some listeners show more categorical performance, leading to less
flexible ...
Distinctive Frontal and Occipitotemporal Surface Features in Neglectful Parenting
(Brain sciences, 2021)
Although the brain signatures of adaptive human parenting are well documented, the cortical features associated with maladaptive caregiving are underexplored. We investigated whether cortical thickness and surface area ...
Feature-Based Attentional Weighting and Re-weighting in the Absence of Visual Awareness
(Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021)
Visual attention evolved as an adaptive mechanism allowing us to cope with a rapidly changing environment. It enables the facilitated processing of relevant information, often automatically and governed by implicit motives. ...
The oscillatory nature of language
(Journal of Linguistics, 2021)
Accelerated forgetting in temporal lobe epilepsy: When does it occur?
(Cortex, 2021)
Objective: The main goal of the study was to analyse differences in the forgetting rates of
Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) patients at different intervals (30 sec, 10 min, 1 day and 1
week) compared with those of healthy ...
A LOW RANK AND SPARSE PARADIGM FREE MAPPING ALGORITHM FOR DECONVOLUTION OF FMRI DATA
(IEEE, 2021)
Current deconvolution algorithms for functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) data are hindered by widespread signal changes
arising from motion or physiological processes (e.g. deep breaths)
that can be interpreted ...
Sleeping when the world locks down: Correlates of sleep health during the COVID-19 pandemic across 59 countries
(Sleep Health, 2021)
COVID-19 escalated into a global pandemic affecting countries around the world. As communities shut down to reduce disease spread, all aspects of life have been altered, including sleep. This study investigated changes in ...
Improving Reading Through Videogames and Digital Apps: A Systematic Review
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2021)
Background: The use of electronic interventions to improve reading is becoming a
common resource. This systematic review aims to describe the main characteristics of
randomized controlled trials or quasi-experimental ...
