Rapid online assessment of reading ability
(Scientific Reports, 2021)An accurate model of the factors that contribute to individual differences in reading ability depends on data collection in large, diverse and representative samples of research participants. However, that is rarely ... -
Reading comprehension and immersion schooling: evidence from component skills
(Developmental Science, 2017)The present research aims to assess literacy acquisition in children becoming bilingual via second language immersion in school. We adopt a cognitive components approach, assessing text-level reading comprehension, a ... -
Reading without phonology: ERP evidence from skilled deaf readers of Spanish
(Scientific Reports, 2021)Reading typically involves phonological mediation, especially for transparent orthographies with a regular letter to sound correspondence. In this study we ask whether phonological coding is a necessary part of the reading ... -
Reading-Related Brain Changes in Audiovisual Processing: Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal MEG Evidence
(The Journal of Neuroscience, 2021)The ability to establish associations between visual objects and speech sounds is essential for human reading. Understanding the neural adjustments required for acquisition of these arbitrary audiovisual associations can ... -
Reanalyzing language expectations: Native language knowledge modulates the sensitivity to intervening cues during anticipatory processing
(Psychophysiology, 2018)We investigated how native language experience shapes anticipatory language processing. Two groups of bilinguals (either Spanish or Basque natives) performed a word matching task (WordMT) and a picture matching task ... -
Recalibration of vocal affect by a dynamic face
(Experimental Brain Research, 2018)Perception of vocal affect is influenced by the concurrent sight of an emotional face. We demonstrate that the sight of an emotional face also can induce recalibration of vocal affect. Participants were exposed to videos ... -
Reconciling the Contradictory Effects of Production on Word Learning: Production May Help at First, but It Hurts Later
(APA American Psychological Association, 2022)Does saying a novel word help to recognize it later? Previous research on the effect of production on this aspect of word learning is inconclusive, as both facilitatory and detrimental effects of production are reported. ... -
Redefining “Learning” in Statistical Learning: What Does an Online Measure Reveal About the Assimilation of Visual Regularities?
(Cognitive Science, 2018)From a theoretical perspective, most discussions of statistical learning (SL) have focused on the possible “statistical” properties that are the object of learning. Much less attention has been given to defining what ... -
Regional Hippocampal Atrophy and Higher Levels of Plasma Amyloid-Beta Are Associated With Subjective Memory Complaints in Nondemented Elderly Subjects
(The Journals of Gerontology: Series A, 2016)Background: Evidence suggests a link between the presence of subjective memory complaints (SMC) and lower volume of the hippocampus, one of the first regions to show neuropathological lesions in Alzheimer’s disease. ... -
Regularity in speech rhythm as a social coalition signal
(Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2019)Regular rhythm facilitates audiomotor entrainment and synchronization in motor behavior and vocalizations between individuals. As rhythm entrainment between interacting agents is correlated with higher levels of ... -
Relative meaning frequencies for 578 homonyms in two Spanish dialects: A cross-linguistic extension of the English eDom norms
(Behavior Research Methods, 2016)Relative meaning frequency is a critical factor to consider in studies of semantic ambiguity. In this work, we examined how this measure may change across the European and Rioplatense dialects of Spanish, as well as how ... -
Relative Salience of Speech Rhythm and Speech Rate on Perceived Foreign Accent in a Second Language
(Language and Speech, 2017)We investigated the independent contribution of speech rate and speech rhythm to perceived foreign accent. To address this issue we used a resynthesis technique that allows neutralizing segmental and tonal idiosyncrasies ... -
Replication and generalization in applied neuroimaging
(NeuroImage, 2019)There is much interest in translating neuroimaging findings into meaningful clinical diagnostics. The goal of scientific discoveries differs from clinical diagnostics. Scientific discoveries must replicate under a specific ... -
Representation and processing of multi-word expressions in the brain
(Brain and Language, 2017)Language comprehension is sensitive to the predictability of the upcoming information. Prediction allows for smooth, expedient and successful communication. While general discourse-based constraints have been investigated ... -
Reproducible protocol to obtain and measure first-order relay human thalamic white-matter tracts
(ELSEVIER, 2022)The “primary ”or “first-order relay ”nuclei of the thalamus feed the cerebral cortex with information about on- going activity in the environment or the subcortical motor systems. Because of the small size of these nuclei ... -
Reproducible Tract Profiles 2 (RTP2) suite, from diffusion MRI acquisition to clinical practice and research
(NATURE, 2023)Diffusion MRI is a complex technique, where new discoveries and implementations occur at a fast pace. The expertise needed for data analyses and accurate and reproducible results is increasingly demanding and requires ... -
Resolving competing predictions in speech: How qualitatively different cues and cue reliability contribute to phoneme identification
(SPRINGER NATURE, 2024)Listeners have many sources of information available in interpreting speech. Numerous theoretical frameworks and paradigms have established that various constraints impact the processing of speech sounds, but it remains ... -
Retrospective Head Motion Estimation in Structural Brain MRI with 3D CNNs
(Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention − MICCAI 2017. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2017)Head motion is one of the most important nuisance variables in neuroimaging, particularly in studies of clinical or special populations, such as children. However, the possibility of estimating motion in structural MRI is ... -
Reward sensitivity predicts dopaminergic response in spatial neglect
Li, Korina; Bentley, Paul; Nair, Ajoy; Halse, Omid; Barker, Gareth; Russell, Charlotte; Soto, David
; Malhotra, Paresh A. (Cortex, 2020)
It has recently been revealed that spatial neglect can be modulated by motivational factors including anticipated monetary reward. A number of dopaminergic agents have been evaluated as treatments for neglect, but the ... -
Rhythm discrimination and metronome tapping in 4-year-old children at risk for developmental dyslexia
(Cognitive Development, 2021)Temporally accurate perception and production of rhythmic patterns are key factors related to language development and reading acquisition. Here we investigate rhythm discrimination and rhythm production in children who ...
