Correction of Fat-Water Swaps in Dixon MRI
(Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention − MICCAI 2016. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2016)The Dixon method is a popular and widely used technique for fat-water separation in magnetic resonance imaging, and today, nearly all scanner manufacturers are offering a Dixon-type pulse sequence that produces scans with ... -
Correction Without Consciousness in Complex Tasks: Evidence from Typing
(UBIQUITY PRESS, 2022)It has been demonstrated that with practice, complex tasks can become independent of conscious control, but even in those cases, repairing errors is thought to remain dependent on conscious control. This paper reports ... -
Cortical tracking of lexical speech units in a multi-talker background is immature in school-aged children
(ELSEVIER, 2023)Children have more difficulty perceiving speech in noise than adults. Whether this difficulty relates to an immature processing of prosodic or linguistic elements of the attended speech is still unclear. To address the ... -
Cortical tracking of speech in noise accounts for reading strategies in children
(PLOS BIOLOGY, 2020)Humans’ propensity to acquire literacy relates to several factors, including the ability to understand speech in noise (SiN). Still, the nature of the relation between reading and SiN perception abilities remains poorly ... -
Cortical Tracking of Speech-in-Noise Develops from Childhood to Adulthood
(The Journal of Neuroscience,, 2019)In multitalker backgrounds, the auditory cortex of adult humans tracks the attended speech stream rather than the global auditory scene. Still, it is unknown whether such preferential tracking also occurs in children whose ... -
Corticokinematic coherence as a new marker for somatosensory afference in newborns
(Clinical Neurophysiology, 2017)Objective Somatosensory evoked potentials have high prognostic value in neonatal intensive care, but their recording from infants is challenging. Here, we studied the possibility to elicit cortical responses in newborns ... -
Coupling between human brain activity and body movements: Insights from non-invasive electromagnetic recordings
(NeuroImage, 2019)Electroencephalographic and magnetoencephalographic data have characterized two types of brain–body interactions observed during various types of motor actions, “corticokinematic” and “corticomuscular” coupling. Here, we ... -
COVID-19 first lockdown as a window into language acquisition: associations between caregiver-child activities and vocabulary gains
(2022)The COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting closure of daycare centers worldwide, led to unprecedented changes in children’s learning environments. This period of increased time at home with caregivers, with limited access ... -
Cross-language activation in bimodal bilinguals: Do mouthings affect the co-activation of speech during sign recognition?
(CAMBRIDGE, 2022)The present study provides insight into cross-language activation in hearing bimodal bilinguals by (1) examining co-activation of spoken words during processing of signs by hearing bimodal bilingual users of Dutch (their ... -
Cross-language and cross-modal activation in hearing bimodal bilinguals
(Journal of Memory and Language, 2016)This study investigates cross-language and cross-modal activation in bimodal bilinguals. Two groups of hearing bimodal bilinguals, natives (Experiment 1) and late learners (Experiment 2), for whom spoken Spanish is their ... -
Cross-Language Modulation of Visual Attention Span: An Arabic-French-Spanish Comparison in Skilled Adult Readers
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2016)In delineating the amount of orthographic information that can be processed in parallel during a single fixation, the visual attention (VA) span acts as a key component of the reading system. Previous studies focused on ... -
Cross-linguistic adaptations of The Comprehensive Aphasia Test: Challenges and solutions
(Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2017)Comparative research on aphasia and aphasia rehabilitation is challenged by the lack of comparable assessment tools across different languages. In English, a large array of tools is available, while in most other languages, ... -
Cross-Linguistic Differences in Bilinguals’ Fundamental Frequency Ranges
(Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research, 2017)Purpose We investigated cross-linguistic differences in fundamental frequency range (FFR) in Welsh-English bilingual speech. This is the first study that reports gender-specific behavior in switching FFRs across languages ... -
Cross-linguistic differences in the use of durational cues for the segmentation of a novel language
(Memory & Cognition, 2017)It is widely accepted that duration can be exploited as phonological phrase final lengthening in the segmentation of a novel language, i.e., in extracting discrete constituents from continuous speech. The use of final ... -
Cross-linguistic interactions influence reading development in bilinguals: a comparison between early balanced French-Basque and Spanish-Basque bilingual children
(Developmental Science, 2016)This study investigates whether orthographic consistency and transparency of languages have an impact on the development of reading strategies and reading sub-skills (i.e. phonemic awareness and visual attention span) in ... -
Cross-linguistic semantic preview benefit in Basque-Spanish bilingual readers: Evidence from fixation-related potentials
(Brain and Language, 2021)During reading, we can process and integrate information from words allocated in the parafoveal region. However, whether we extract and process the meaning of parafoveal words is still under debate. Here, we obtained F ... -
Cross-linguistic transfer in bilingual reading is item specific
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2021)The grain size of orthographic representations prompted by a consistent orthography (like Spanish or Basque) increases if reading is simultaneously learned in another language with an inconsistent orthography (like ... -
Cross-linguistic transfer in bilinguals reading in two alphabetic orthographies: The grain size accommodation hypothesis
(Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2018)Reading acquisition is one of the most complex and demanding learning processes faced by children in their first years of schooling. If reading acquisition is challenging in one language, how is it when reading is acquired ... -
Cross-modal and cross-language activation in bilinguals reveals lexical competition even when words or signs are unheard or unseen
(PNAS, 2022)We exploit the phenomenon of cross-modal, cross-language activation to examine the dynamics of language processing. Previous within-language work showed that seeing a sign coactivates phonologically related signs, just ... -
Cross-modal noise compensation in audiovisual words
(Scientific Reports, 2017)Perceiving linguistic input is vital for human functioning, but the process is complicated by the fact that the incoming signal is often degraded. However, humans can compensate for unimodal noise by relying on simultaneous ...
