Theta-gamma phase-amplitude coupling in auditory cortex is modulated by language proficiency
(WILEY, 2023)
The coordination between the theta phase (3–7 Hz) and gamma power (25–35 Hz)
oscillations (namely theta-gamma phase-amplitude coupling, PAC) in the auditory
cortex has been proposed as an essential neural mechanism ...
Lexiland: A Tablet-based Universal Screener for Reading Difficulties in the School Context
(SAGE, 2022)
Massive and timely screening of the student population for early signs of reading difficulties is needed to implement timely effective remediation of these difficulties. However, traditional approaches are costly and hard ...
Mind the Orthography: Revisiting the Contribution of Prereading Phonological Awareness to Reading Acquisition
(APA, 2022)
Reading acquisition is based on a set of preliteracy skills that lay the foundation for future reading abilities.
Phonological awareness—the ability to identify and manipulate the sound units of oral language—
has been ...
Give me a break! Unavoidable fatigue effects in cognitive pupillometry
(Wiley, 2023)
Pupillometry has a rich history in the study of perception and cognition. One
perennial challenge is that the magnitude of the task-evoked
pupil response
diminishes
over the course of an experiment, a phenomenon we ...
“Left and right prefrontal routes to action comprehension”
(Cortex, 2023)
Successful action comprehension requires the integration of motor information and semantic
cues about objects in context. Previous evidence suggests that while motor features
are dorsally encoded in the fronto-parietal ...
Oscillatory dynamics underlying noun and verb production in highly proficient bilinguals
(Nature Research, 2022-01)
[EN] Words representing objects (nouns) and words representing actions (verbs) are essential components of speech across languages. While there is evidence regarding the organizational principles governing neural representation ...
Hypothesis-driven genome-wide association studies provide novel insights into genetics of reading disabilities
(SPRINGER, 2022)
Reading Disability (RD) is often characterized by difficulties in the phonology of the language. While the molecular mechanisms
underlying it are largely undetermined, loci are being revealed by genome-wide association ...
Evaluating the Reliability of Human Brain White Matter Tractometry
(Minor White, 2021)
The validity of research results depends on the reliability of analysis methods. In recent years, there have been concerns about the validity of research that uses diffusion-weighted MRI (dMRI) to understand human brain ...
When more is more. L2 agreement improves when listeners can rely on both noun and verbal features
(Šnek Publishing, 2022)
English verbal agreement has been shown to be a particularly
challenging domain in both first and second language acquisition. In this
study, we tested the comprehension of sentences with masked and unmasked
agreement ...
Cortical tracking of lexical speech units in a multi-talker background is immature in school-aged children
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
Children have more difficulty perceiving speech in noise than adults. Whether this difficulty relates to an immature processing of prosodic or linguistic elements of the attended speech is still unclear. To address the ...
