      Landscape-scale modelling of agroforestry ecosystems services in Swiss orchards: a methodological approach 

      Kay, S.; Crous-Duran, J.; García de Jalón, S.; Graves, A.; Palma, J.H.N.; Roces-Díaz, J.V.; Szerencsits, E.; Weibel, R.; Herzog, F. (Springer, 2018)
      Context: Agroforestry systems in temperate Europe are known to provide both, provisioning and regulating ecosystem services (ES). Yet, it is poorly understood how these systems affect ES provision at a landscape scale in ...

      Language and Math: What If We Have Two Separate Naming Systems? 

      Martínez, Alejandro (Languages, 2019)
      The role of language in numerical processing has traditionally been restricted to counting and exact arithmetic. Nevertheless, the impact that each of a bilinguals’ languages may have in core numerical representations has ...

      Language control in bilingual production: Insights from error rate and error type in sentence production 

      Martin, Clara D.; Nozari, Nazbanou (Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2021)
      Most research showing that cognates are named faster than non-cognates has focused on isolated word production which might not realistically reflect cognitive demands in sentence production. Here, we explored whether ...

      Language development in infants with hearing loss: Benefits of infant-directed speech 

      Lovcevic, Irena; Burnham, Denis; Kalashnikova, Marina (ELSEVIER, 2022)
      The majority of infants with permanent congenital hearing loss fall significantly behind their normal hearing peers in the development of receptive and expressive oral communication skills. Independent of any prosthetic ...

      Language distance and non-native syntactic processing: Evidence from event-related potentials 

      Zawiszewski, Adam ORCID; Gutiérrez, Eva; Fernández Fernández, Beatriz; Laka Mugarza, Itziar ORCID (Cambridge University Press, 2011)
      [EN] In this study, we explore native and non-native syntactic processing, paying special attention to the language distance factor. To this end, we compared how native speakers of Basque and highly proficient non-native ...

      Language dominance shapes non-linguistic rhythmic grouping in bilinguals 

      Molnar, Monika; Carreiras, Manuel; Gervain, Judit (Cognition, 2016)
      To what degree non-linguistic auditory rhythm perception is governed by universal biases (e.g., Iambic- Trochaic Law; Hayes, 1995) or shaped by native language experience is debated. It has been proposed that rhythmic ...

      Language modality and temporal structure impact processing: Sign and speech have different windows of integration 

      Rivolta, Chiara Luna; Costello, Brendan; Carreiras, Manuel (Journal of Memory and Language, 2021)
      Language comprehension depends on the ability to temporally process the periodic structure of the language signal. In this study we investigate temporal processing of Spanish Sign Language (LSE), isolating the ...

      Language modality shapes the dynamics of word and sign recognition 

      Villameriel, Saúl; Costello, Brendan; Dias, Patricia; Giezen, Marcel; Carreiras, Manuel (Cognition, 2019)
      Spoken words and signs both consist of structured sub-lexical units. While phonemes unfold in time in the case of the spoken signal, visual sub-lexical units such as location and handshape are produced simultaneously in ...

      Language proficiency does not modulate executive control in older bilinguals 

      Mishra, Ramesh Kumar; Padmanabhuni, Manasa; Bhandari, Pratik; Viswambharan, Shiji; Prasad, Seema Gorur (Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition, 2019)
      We examined if language proficiency modulates performance in tasks that measure executive control in older Telugu-English bilinguals (n = 50, mean age = 57.15 years). We administered numerical Stroop task, Attention Network ...

      Language Proficiency Entails Tuning Cortical Activity to Second Language Speech 

      Lizarazu, Mikel; Carreiras, Manuel; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Zarraga, Asier; Molinaro, Nicola (Cerebral Cortex, 2021)
      Cortical tracking of linguistic structures in speech, such as phrases (<3 Hz, delta band) and syllables (3–8 Hz, theta band), is known to be crucial for speech comprehension. However, it has not been established whether ...

      Language specificity in cortical tracking of speech rhythm at the mora, syllable, and foot levels 

      Peter, Varghese; van Ommen, Sandrien; Kalashnikova, Marina; Mazuka, Reiko; Nazzi, Thierry; Burnham, Denis (NATURE, 2022)
      Recent research shows that adults’ neural oscillations track the rhythm of the speech signal. However, the extent to which this tracking is driven by the acoustics of the signal, or by language-specific processing remains ...
