Effects of PSA Removal from NCAM on the Critical Period Plasticity Triggered by the Antidepressant Fluoxetine in the Visual Cortex
(Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016)Neuronal plasticity peaks during critical periods of postnatal development and is reduced towards adulthood. Recent data suggests that windows of juvenile-like plasticity can be triggered in the adult brain by antidepressant ... -
Effects of subject-case marking on agreement processing: ERP evidence from Basque
(Cortex, 2018)Previous cross-linguistic research has found that comprehenders are immediately sensitive to various kinds of agreement violations across languages. We focused on Basque, a verb-final ergative language with both subjecteverb ... -
Electrophysiological evidence for differences between fusion and combination illusions in audiovisual speech perception
(European Journal of Neuroscience, 2017)Incongruent audiovisual speech stimuli can lead to perceptual illusions such as fusions or combinations. Here, we investigated the underlying audiovisual integration process by measuring ERPs. We observed that visual ... -
Electrophysiology of statistical learning: Exploring the online learning process and offline learning product
(European Journal of Neuroscience, 2020)A continuous stream of syllables is segmented into discrete constituents based on the transitional probabilities (TPs) between adjacent syllables by means of statistical learning. However, we still do not know whether ... -
Emergent Bilingualism and Working Memory Development in School Aged Children
(Language Learning, 2016)The present research explores working memory (WM) development in monolingual as well as emergent bilingual children immersed in an L2 at school. Evidence from recent years suggests that bilingualism may boost domain-general ... -
Emotional Diglossia in Multilingual Classroom Environments: A Proposal
(Psychology and Cognitive Sciences Open Journal, 2017)Are we aware of the multiple cognitive consequences of being immersed in multilingual learning contexts? In this opinion article, some recent findings from the field of cognitive neuroscience and education has been ... -
Enhancing reading performance through action video games: the role of visual attention span
(Scientific Reports, 2017)Recent studies reported that Action Video Game-AVG training improves not only certain attentional components, but also reading fluency in children with dyslexia. We aimed to investigate the shared attentional components ... -
Evaluation of multi-echo ICA denoising for task based fMRI studies: Block designs, rapid event-related designs, and cardiac-gated fMRI
(NeuroImage, 2016)Multi-echo fMRI, particularly the multi-echo independent component analysis (ME-ICA) algorithm, has previously proven useful for increasing the sensitivity and reducing false positives for functional MRI (fMRI) based resting ... -
Event-Related Potentials Reveal Altered Executive Control Activity in Healthy Elderly With Subjective Memory Complaints
(Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018)Several studies reported that healthy elderly with subjective memory complaints (SMC) evolve to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) more frequently than elderly without subjective memory decline. In the present study, we investigated ... -
Evidence for a bimodal bilingual disadvantage in letter fluency
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2017)Many bimodal bilinguals are immersed in a spoken language-dominant environment from an early age and, unlike unimodal bilinguals, do not necessarily divide their language use between languages. Nonetheless, early ASL–English ... -
Examining Bilingual Language Switching Across the Lifespan in Cued and Voluntary Switching Contexts
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2020)How bilinguals control their languages and switch between them may change across the life span. Furthermore, bilingual language control may depend on the demands imposed by the context. Across 2 experiments, we examined ... -
Exploring Different Types of Inhibition During Bilingual Language Production
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2018)Multilinguals have to control their languages constantly to produce accurate verbal output. They have to inhibit possible lexical competitors not only from the target language, but also from non-target languages. Bilinguals’ ... -
Exploring the temporal dynamics of speech production with EEG and group ICA
(Scientific Reports, 2020)Speech production is a complex skill whose neural implementation relies on a large number of different regions in the brain. How neural activity in these different regions varies as a function of time during the production ... -
Fast and sequence-adaptive whole-brain segmentation using parametric Bayesian modeling
(NeuroImage, 2016)Quantitative analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the brain requires accurate automated segmentation of anatomical structures. A desirable feature for such segmentation methods is to be robust against ... -
Feature-Based Attention Samples Stimuli Rhythmically
(Current Biology, 2019)Attention supports the allocation of resources to relevant locations and objects in a scene. Under most conditions, several stimuli compete for neural representation. Attention biases neural representation toward the ... -
Flexible and adaptive processes in speech perception
(The Speech Processing Lexicon, 2017)The perception of speech can be flexible, influenced by multiple sources of information, and plastic, tuned over time to cumulative experience. This chapter provides examples of cognitive neuroscience research, presented ... -
Flexible predictions during listening comprehension: Speaker reliability affects anticipatory processes
(Neuropsychologia, 2019)During listening comprehension, the identification of individual words can be strongly influenced by properties of the preceding context. While sentence context can facilitate both behavioral and neural responses, it is ... -
Fluidity in the perception of auditory speech: Cross-modal recalibration of voice gender and vowel identity by a talking face
(Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2020)Humans quickly adapt to variations in the speech signal. Adaptation may surface as recalibration, a learning effect driven by error-minimisation between a visual face and an ambiguous auditory speech signal, or as selective ... -
Foreign-accented speech modulates linguistic anticipatory processes
(Neuropsychologia, 2016)Listeners are able to anticipate upcoming words during sentence comprehension, and, as a result, they also pre-activate semantically related words. In the present study, we aim at exploring whether these anticipatory ... -
Frequency-Dependent Intrinsic Electrophysiological Functional Architecture of the Human Verbal Language Network
(Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2020)Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allowed the spatial characterization of the resting-state verbal language network (vLN). While other resting-state networks (RSNs) were matched with their electrophysiological ...
