Phonological deficits in dyslexia impede lexical processing of spoken words: Linking behavioural and MEG data
(ELSEVIER, 2024)
Phonological difficulties have been identified as a core deficit in developmental dyslexia, yet everyday speech comprehension, which relies on phonological processing, is seemingly unaffected. This raises the question as ...
The Effects of Orthography on the Pronunciation of Nasal Vowels by L1 Japanese Learners of L3 French: Evidence from a Longitudinal Study of Speech in Interaction
(MDPI, 2024)
In recent decades, a vast literature has documented crosslinguistic influences on the acquisition of L2 phonology and in particular the effects of spelling on pronunciation. However, articulating these research findings ...
Phonetic and Lexical Crosslinguistic Influence in Early Spanish–Basque–English Trilinguals
(WILEY, 2024)
A central question in multilingualism research is how multiple languages interact. Most studies have focused on first (L1) and second language (L2) effects on a third language (L3), but a small number of studies dedicated ...
Functional connectivity of sensorimotor network is enhanced in spastic diplegic cerebral palsy: A multimodal study using fMRI and MEG
(ELSEVIER, 2024)
Objective: To assess the effects to functional connectivity (FC) caused by lesions related to spastic diplegic cerebral palsy (CP) in children and adolescents using multiple imaging modalities. Methods: We used resting ...
Phonetic accommodation in non‑native directed speech supports L2 word learning and pronunciation
(NATURE, 2023)
This study assessed whether Non-native Directed Speech (NNDS) facilitates second language (L2) learning, specifically L2 word learning and production. Spanish participants (N = 50) learned novel English words, presented ...
Advancing Content-Based Histopathological Image Retrieval Pre-Processing: A Comparative Analysis of the Effects of Color Normalization Techniques
(MDPI, 2024)
Content-Based Histopathological Image Retrieval (CBHIR) is a search technique based on the visual content and histopathological features of whole-slide images (WSIs). CBHIR tools assist pathologists to obtain a faster and ...
Sequence effects and speech processing: cognitive load for speaker‑switching within and across accents
(SPRINGER, 2024)
Prior work in speech processing indicates that listening tasks with multiple speakers (as opposed to a single speaker) result in slower and less accurate processing. Notably, the trial-to-trial cognitive demands of switching ...
Processing of Synonyms and Homographs in Bilingual and Monolingual Speakers
(UBIQUITY PRESS, 2024)
Bilinguals have long-lasting experience with cross-language double-mappings (i.e., translation equivalents and interlingual homographs (or false friends)). Considering this, we examined whether bilinguals differ from ...
Verbal production dynamics and plasticity: functional contributions of language and executive control systems
(OXFORD, 2023)
Bilingual language production requires both language knowledge and language control in order to communicate in a target language. Learning or improving a language in adulthood is an increasingly common undertaking, and ...
Functional underpinnings of feedback-enhanced test-potentiated encoding
(OXFORD, 2023)
The testing effect describes the finding that retrieval practice enhances memory performance compared to restudy practice. Prior evidence demonstrates that this effect can be boosted by providing feedback after retrieval ...
