Is VIRTU4L Larger Than VIR7UAL? Automatic Processing of Number Quantity and Lexical Representations in Leet Words
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016)
Recent research has shown that leet words (i.e., words in which some of the letters are replaced by visually similar digits; e.g., VIRTU4L) can be processed as their base words without much cost. However, it remains unclear ...
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 ...
Is conscious awareness needed for all working memory processes?
(Neuroscience of Consciousness, 2016)
Stein and colleagues argue there is no yet conclusive evidence for nonconscious working memory (WM) and that is critical
to probeWMwhile ensuring null sensitivity to memory cues. While this stringent approach reduces the ...
How and When Does the Second Language Influence the Production of Native Speech Sounds: A Literature Review
(Language Learning, 2016)
In bilinguals and second language learners, the native (L1) and nonnative (L2) languages
coexist and interact. The L1 influences L2 production via forward transfer, as is seen
with foreign accents. However, language ...
The Spanish General Knowledge Norms
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2016)
This study introduces the Spanish adaptation of the General Knowledge Norms first created by Nelson and Narens (1980) and updated by Tauber et al. (2013). Following a procedure akin to that used in preceding studies and ...
Simultaneous Bayesian correction of slab boundary artifacts and bias field for high resolution ex vivo MRI
(IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2016)
Multi-slab MRI overcomes some of the hardware limitations of today's clinical scanners (e.g., memory size), enabling the acquisition of ultra-high resolution ex vivo MRI of the whole human brain with high SNR efficiency. ...
Insights from bimodal bilingualism: Reply to commentaries
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2016)
The commentaries on our Keynote article “Psycholinguistic, cognitive, and neural implications of bimodal bilingualism” were enthusiastic about what can be learned by studying bilinguals who acquire two languages that are ...
The role of letter features in visual-word recognition: Evidence from a delayed segment technique
(Acta Psychologica, 2016)
Do all visual features in aword's constituent letters have the same importance during lexical access? Herewe examined
whether some components of a word's letters (midsegments, junctions, terminals) are more important
than ...
Sleep not just protects memories against forgetting, it also makes them more accessible
(Cortex, 2016)
Two published datasets (Dumay & Gaskell, 2007, Psychological Science; Tamminen, Payne,
Stickgold, Wamsley, & Gaskell, 2010, Journal of Neuroscience) showing a positive influence of
sleep on declarative memory were ...
Is there a common oscillatory brain mechanism for producing and predicting language?
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2016)
Recent proposals have suggested that language prediction is supported by the neurophysiological
mechanisms involved in language production. Both prediction and production in language imply
information processing percolating ...
