On linguistic properties of verbal number systems: A cross-linguistic study of number transcoding errors observed in a Basque--French bilingual patient with aphasia
(Lingua, 2018)Theories that plantation creoles were all born as pidgins at West African coast slave castles, including that proposed in McWhorter (2000), have not fared well among creolists, amidst a preference for supposing that creoles ... -
On the bilingualism effect in task switching∗
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2018)In one task-switching experiment, we compared bilinguals and monolinguals to explore the reliability of the bilingualism effect on the n-2 repetition cost. In a second task-switching experiment, we tested another group of ... -
On the effects of regional accents on memory and credibility
(Acta Psychologica, 2018)The information we obtain from how speakers sound—for example their accent—affects how we interpret the messages they convey. A clear example is foreign accented speech, where reduced intelligibility and speaker's social ... -
On the Locus of L2 Lexical Fuzziness: Insights From L1 Spoken Word Recognition and Novel Word Learning
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2021)The examination of how words are learned can offer valuable insights into the nature of lexical representations. For example, a common assessment of novel word learning is based on its ability to interfere with other ... -

(Frontiers in Psychology, 2021)The examination of how words are learned can offer valuable insights into the nature of lexical representations. For example, a common assessment of novel word learning is based on its ability to interfere with other ... -
On the nature of consonant/vowel differences in letter position coding: Evidence from developing and adult readers
(British Journal of Psychology, 2016)In skilled adult readers, transposed-letter effects (jugde-JUDGE) are greater for consonant than for vowel transpositions. These differences are often attributed to phonological rather than orthographic processing. To ... -
On the overlap between bilingual language control and domain-general executive control
(Acta Psychologica, 2016)We explored the overlap between bilingual language control (bLC) and domain-general executive control (EC) by focusing on inhibitory control processes. We tested 62 bilinguals in linguistic and non-linguistic switching tasks ... -
One Way or Another: Cortical Language Areas Flexibly Adapt Processing Strategies to Perceptual And Contextual Properties of Speech
; ; Agirre, Eneko
; (Cerebral Cortex, 2021)
Cortical circuits rely on the temporal regularities of speech to optimize signal parsing for sound-to-meaning mapping. Bottom-up speech analysis is accelerated by top–down predictions about upcoming words. In everyday ... -
One-to-One or One Too Many? Linking Sound-to-Letter Mappings to Speech Sound Perception and Production in Early Readers
(ASHA, 2022)Purpose: Effects related to literacy acquisition have been observed at different levels of speech processing. This study investigated the link between orthographic knowledge and children’s perception and production of ... -
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 ... -
Open access dataset of task-free hemodynamic activity in 4-monthold infants during sleep using fNIRS
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2022)Spontaneous, task-free, hemodynamic activity of the brain provides useful information about its functional organization, as it can describe how different brain regions communicate to each other. Neuroimaging studies measuring ... -
Orthography affects L1 and L2 speech perception but not production in early bilinguals
(Cambridge, 2022)Orthography plays a crucial role in L2 learning, which generally relies on both oral and written input. We examine whether incongruencies between L1 and L2 grapheme-phoneme correspondences influence bilingual speech ... -
Oscillatory and Structural Signatures of Language Plasticity in Brain Tumor Patients: a Longitudinal Study
(Wiley, 2021-04-15)Recent evidence suggests that damage to the language network triggers its functional reorganization. Yet, the spectro-temporal fingerprints of this plastic rearrangement and its relation to anatomical changes is less well ... -
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 ... -
Out-of-body memory encoding causes thirdperson perspective at recall
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)Sigmund Freud famously noted some memories are recalled with a perspective of “an observer from outside the scene”. According to Freud—and most memory researchers today—the third-person perspective occurs due to ... -
Out-of-Synchrony Speech Entrainment in Developmental Dyslexia
(Human Brain Mapping, 2016)Developmental dyslexia is a reading disorder often characterized by reduced awareness of speech units. Whether the neural source of this phonological disorder in dyslexic readers results from the malfunctioning of the ... -
Perceptual facilitation of word recognition through motor activation during sentence comprehension
(cortex, 2018)Despite the growing literature on anticipatory language processing, the brain dynamics of this high-level predictive process are still unclear. In the present MEG study, we analyzed pre- and post-stimulus oscillatory ... -
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 ... -
Phase−amplitude coupling between theta and gamma oscillations adapts to speech rate
(Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2019)Low- and high-frequency cortical oscillations play an important role in speech processing. Low-frequency neural oscillations in the delta (<4Hz) and theta (4–8 Hz) bands entrain to the prosodic and syllabic rates of speech, ... -
Phonatory and articulatory representations of speech production in cortical and subcortical fMRI responses
(Scientific Reports, 2020)Speaking involves coordination of multiple neuromotor systems, including respiration, phonation and articulation. Developing non-invasive imaging methods to study how the brain controls these systems is critical for ...
