Neural Plasticity of Language Systems: evidence from fMRI experiments with adult language learners
(2021-09-07)Functional specialisation and plasticity are fundamental organising principles of the brain. Language is a uniquely human phenomenon that requires a delicate balance between neural specialisation and plasticity, and language ... -
Oscillatory characterization of sensory wordform pre-activation in the visual and auditory domains.
(2019-11-29)Prediction has been proposed to be a fundamental cognitive mechanism. However, empirical data regarding the neural correlates of the predictions themselves are still scarce. One outstanding question, especially within the ... -
Phonetic detail of voicing categories in Basque-Spanish bilinguals. Evidence from production and perception
(2023-05-04)El objetivo de esta tesis doctoral es investigar las categorías fonéticas de personas bilingües en sus dos idiomas. La pregunta en la que se fundamenta esta investigación es la siguiente: ¿las personas bilingües cuyos ... -
Reading acquisition: from digital screening to neurocognitive bases in a transparent orthography
(2021-09-15)El aprendizaje de la lectura es un área activa de investigación en la psicología y la neurociencia cognitiva. En las últimas décadas se ha avanzado enormemente en la comprensión de los procesos neurocognitivos subyacentes ... -
Reconocimiento de palabras en una segunda lengua: efectos interlingüísticos en las modalidades visual y auditiva.
(2022-04-04)En la presente tesis doctoral se examinará el reconocimiento, tanto visual como auditivo, de palabras por bilingües tardíos de castellano-inglés con un nivel medio-alto en su segunda lengua (L2¿inglés). Se desarrollarán ... -
Semantic richness, semantic context, and language learning
(2021-07-21)Sabemos que haber adquirido una segunda lengua con una exposición limitada y artificial hace que el aprendizaje de nueva información y vocabulario en ese idioma sea particularmente difícil. El propósito de esta tesis es ... -
Sensitivity to letter sequences in word processing and word learning.
(2020-07-08)El marcaje ortográfico (secuencias de letras características en una lengua) es muy importante para reducir la competición léxica, agilizar la decisión de lengua en bilingües y en el aprendizaje de palabras nuevas. Por eso, ... -
Subject-verb agreement in real time: active feature maintenances as syntactic prediction.
(2020-01-10)The current dissertation tests whether the long-distance subject-verb establishment is maintained active over the course of the sentence, by maintaining morphosyntactic information such as syntactic category and number ... -
Temporal structure in language production and processing: a crossmodal comparison of spoken and sign language
(2023-03-10)Este trabajo de doctorado investiga el efecto de la modalidad, acústica y visual, en la estructura te mporal del lenguaje. Comparamos el español europeo hablado y la lengua de signos española( que utilizan respectivamente ... -
The brain signature for reading in high-skilled deaf adults: behavior and electrophysiological evidence
(2020-06-15)La presente tesis investiga cómo se da el procesamiento de la información sintáctica y semántica en lectores sordos competentes. En primer lugar, investigamos qué similitudes y/o diferencias comparten los lectores sordos ... -
The development of audiovisual vowel processing in monolingual and bilingual infants: a cross-sectional and longitudinal study.
(2019-05-22)The aim of the current dissertation is to investigate to what extent infants acquiring one language (monolinguals) and infants acquiring two languages (bilinguals) share their strategies during audiovisual speech processing. ... -
The dynamic nature of conceptual representations in the human brain: Insights from aging and decoded neurofeedback
(2023-11-03)La comunicación humana y comprensión del mundo dependen en gran medida de las palabras y conceptos que empleamos. En el marco de esta tesis, mi investigación se enfoca en comprender la naturaleza dinámica de las representaciones ... -
The impact of human language on perceptual categorization: electrophysiological insights.
(2021-11-18)How does learning cultural systems like language impact cognition and perception? The last few years have seen increased interest into this topic, yet with little theoretical advance. One fundamental question concerns the ... -
The Influence of Literacy on Speech. The Orthographic Consistency Effect in Auditory Language Perception and Language Production
(2022-10-06)The present thesis presents a series of experiments that explore of the Orthographic Consistency Effect (OCE) in auditory language perception and production. The OCE is a psycholinguistic effect that shows a facilitation ... -
The Neural Representation of Concepts in Bilinguals: An Evaluation of Factors Influencing Cross-language Overlap Using fMRI-based Multivariate Pattern Analysis
(2023-07-13)The neurocognitive mechanisms that support the generalization of semantic representations across different languages remain to be determined. Current psycholinguistic models propose that semantic representations are likely ... -
The processing of gender information in languages of distinct morphosyntactic gender marking systems
(2017-07-10)When talking about people, gender information is taken as an essential feature during language processing. The gender here may be definitional (e.g., King is male or Queen is female), stereotypical (e.g., doctor, male-biased) ... -
The relationships between context and conceptual access.
(2020-07-14)An important question in the cognitive neuroscience of language regards the nature of the conceptual representations that make up semantic memory. Amodal accounts argue that conceptual representations of objects and their ... -
The role of metacognitive monitoring in regulating learning in early readers
(2021-12-10)Metacognition refers to the capacity of reflecting upon our own cognitive processes. There is an ongoing discussion in the literature on the role of metacognitive monitoring in learning and academic achievement. However, ... -
The role of orthography in auditory word learning
(2023-02-20)The present thesis investigates the role of orthography in auditory word learning. Across three experiments we explore whether adult speakers of Spanish (Experiments 1 and 3) and French (Experiment 2) use their knowledge ... -
The role of quantity and quality of linguistic exposure on language development during childhood
(2023-03-23)El objetivo general de esta tesis doctoral es estudiar el impacto que factores del contexto lingüístico en el que crecen niñas y niños tienen en su desarrollo del lenguaje. Para ahondar en dicho objetivo, nos centramos en ...
