Rhythms in cognition: The evidence revisited
(WILEY, 2022)
Brain activity abounds with rhythmic patterns (Capilla et al., 2021; Groppe et al., 2013; Keitel & Gross, 2016) that reflect ongoing fluctuations of neuronal excitability (Adrian & Matthews, 1934; Bishop, 1932). These ...
Genome-wide analyses of individual differences in quantitatively assessed reading- and language-related skills in up to 34,000 people
(PNAS, 2022)
The use of spoken and written language is a fundamental human capacity. Individual differences
in reading- and language-related skills are influenced by genetic variation, with
twin-based heritability estimates of 30 to ...
Subliminal Priming Effects of Masked Social Hierarchies During a Categorization Task: An Event-Related Brain Potentials Study
(Frontiers, 2022)
Evidence so far shows that status detection increases attentional resources, especially
for high hierarchies. However, little is known about the effects of masked social status
cues on cognition. Here, we explore the ...
The effect of regular rhythm on the perception of linguistic and non-linguistic auditory input
(WILEY, 2022)
Regular distribution of auditory stimuli over time can facilitate perception and attention.
However, such effects have to date only been observed in separate studies using
either linguistic or non-linguistic materials. ...
Typological Differences Influence the Bilingual Advantage in Metacognitive Processing
(APA American Psychological Association, 2022)
Previous studies showed a bilingual advantage in metacognitive processing (tracking one’s own cognitive
performance) in linguistic tasks. However, bilinguals do not constitute a homogeneous population,
and it was unclear ...
Is there such a thing as a ‘good statistical learner’?
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
A growing body of research investigates individual differences in the learning of
statistical structure, tying them to variability in cognitive (dis)abilities. This
approach views statistical learning (SL) as a general ...
Intrasession and Intersession Reproducibility of Artificial Scotoma pRF Mapping Results at Ultra- High Fields
(Society for Neuroscience, 2022)
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) combined with population receptive field (pRF) mapping allows
for associating positions on the visual cortex to areas on the visual field. Apart from applications in ...
Processing of semantic and grammatical gender in Spanish speakers with aphasia
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Background: Previous studies have argued that there are two
types of linguistic gender: grammatical gender, which is arbitrarily
assigned to nouns, and semantic gender, which depends on the
gender of the referent.
Aim: ...
Cross-language activation in bimodal bilinguals: Do mouthings affect the co-activation of speech during sign recognition?
(CAMBRIDGE, 2022)
The present study provides insight into cross-language activation in hearing bimodal bilinguals by (1) examining co-activation of spoken words during processing of signs by hearing bimodal bilingual users of Dutch (their ...
The Concreteness Advantage in Lexical Decision Does Not Depend on Perceptual Simulations
(APA American Psychological Association, 2022)
Abstract words are typically more difficult to identify than concrete words in lexical-decision, word-naming,
and recall tasks. This behavioral advantage, known as the concreteness effect, is often considered as evidence
for ...
