      Pejovic, Jovana; Yee, Eiling; Molnar, Monika (First Language, 2020)
      In the language development literature, studies often make inferences about infants’ speech perception abilities based on their responses to a single speaker. However, there can be significant natural variability across ...

      Speech rhythm as naturally occurring and culturally transmitted behavioral patterns 

      Ordin, Mikhail (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2019)
      Rhythm is fundamental to every motor activity. Neural and physiological mechanisms that underlie rhythmic cognition, in general, and rhythmic pattern generation, in particular, are evolutionarily ancient. As speech production ...

      Speech Rhythm Convergence as a Social Coalition Signal 

      Polyanskaya, Leona; Samuel, Arthur G.; Ordin, Mikhail (Evolutionary Psychology, 2019)
      Patterns of nonverbal and verbal behavior of interlocutors become more similar as communication progresses. Rhythm entrainment promotes prosocial behavior and signals social bonding and cooperation. Yet, it is unknown if ...

      Speech rhythm convergence in a dyadic reading task 

      Cerda-Oñate, Karina; Toledo Vega, Gloria; Ordin, Mikhail (Speech Communication, 2021)
      We tested the effect of co-presence on entrainment to speech rhythm, examining differences in speech rhythm convergence during a reading task, in conditions where the reading partner was present or absent. Speech rhythm ...

      Speech-brain phase coupling is enhanced in low contextual semantic predictability conditions 

      Molinaro, Nicola; Lizarazu, Mikel; Baldin, Veronica; Pérez-Navarro, Jose; Lallier, Marie; Ríos-López, Paula (Neuropsychologia, 2021)
      Semantic prediction and cortical entrainment to the acoustic landmarks of the speech envelope are two fundamental yet qualitatively different mechanisms that facilitate speech comprehension. However, it is not clear ...

      Speech‑derived haptic stimulation enhances speech recognition in a multi‑talker background 

      Răutu, I. Sabina; De Tiège, Xavier; Jousmäki, Veikko; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Bertels, Julie (NATURE, 2023)
      Speech understanding, while effortless in quiet conditions, is challenging in noisy environments. Previous studies have revealed that a feasible approach to supplement speech-in-noise (SiN) perception consists in presenting ...
