• 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 ...
• Regularity in speech rhythm as a social coalition signal 

  Polyanskaya, Leona; Samuel, Arthur G.; Ordin, Mikhail (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2019)

  Regular rhythm facilitates audiomotor entrainment and synchronization in motor behavior and vocalizations between individuals. As rhythm entrainment between interacting agents is correlated with higher levels of ...
• 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 ...
• Phase−amplitude coupling between theta and gamma oscillations adapts to speech rate 

  Lizarazu, Mikel; Lallier, Marie; Molinaro, Nicola (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2019)

  Low- and high-frequency cortical oscillations play an important role in speech processing. Low-frequency neural oscillations in the delta (<4Hz) and theta (4–8 Hz) bands entrain to the prosodic and syllabic rates of speech, ...
