      Directional asymmetries reveal a universal bias in adult vowel perception 

      Masapollo, Matthew; Polka, Linda; Molnar, Monika; Ménard, Lucie (The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2017)
      Research on cross-language vowel perception in both infants and adults has shown that for many vowel contrasts, discrimination is easier when the same pair of vowels is presented in one direction compared to the reverse ...

      Discourse Expectations Are Sensitive to the Question Under Discussion: Evidence From ERPs 

      Delogu, Francesca; Jachmann, Torsten; Staudte, Maria; Vespignani, Francesco; Molinaro, Nicola (Discourse Processes, 2020)
      Questions under Discussion (QUDs) have been suggested to influence the integration of individual utterances into a discourse-level representation. Previous work has shown that processing ungrammatical ellipses is facilitated ...

      Discovery of 42 genome-wide significant loci associated with dyslexia 

      Doust, Catherine; Fontanillas, Pierre; Eising, Else; Gordon, Scott D.; Wang, Zhengjun; Alagöz, Gökberk; Molz, Barbara; Research Team, 23andMe; Quantitative Trait Working Group of the GenLang Consortium* (Manuel Carreiras); St Pourcain, Beate; Francks, Clyde; Marioni, Riccardo E.; Zhao, Jingjing; Paracchini, Silvia; Talcott, Joel B.; Monaco, Anthony P.; Stein, John F.; Gruen, Jeffrey R.; Olson, Richard K.; Willcutt, Erik G.; DeFries, John C.; Pennington, Bruce F.; Smith, Shelley D.; Wright, Margaret J.; Martin, Nicholas G.; Auton, Adam; Bates, Timothy C.; Fisher, Simon E.; Luciano, Michelle (SPRINGER NATURE, 2022)
      Reading and writing are crucial life skills but roughly one in ten children are affected by dyslexia, which can persist into adulthood. Family studies of dyslexia suggest heritability up to 70%, yet few convincing genetic ...

      Disentangling meaning in the brain: Left temporal involvement in agreement processing 

      Mancini, Simona; Quiñones, Ileana; Molinaro, Nicola; Hernandez-Cabrera, Juan A.; Carreiras, Manuel (Cortex, 2017)
      Sentence comprehension is successfully accomplished by means of a form-to-meaning mapping procedure that relies on the extraction of morphosyntactic information from the input and its mapping to higher-level semantic–discourse ...

      Disparate semantic ambiguity effects from semantic processing dynamics rather than qualitative task differences 

      Plaut, David C. (Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2016)
      A core challenge in the semantic ambiguity literature is understanding why the number and relatedness among a word’s interpretations are associated with different effects in different tasks. An influential account (Hino ...

      Disrupted salience network dynamics in Parkinson's disease patients with impulse control disorders 

      Navalpotro-Gomez, Irene; Kim, Jinhee; Paz-Alonso, Pedro M.; Delgado-Alvarado, Manuel; Quiroga-Varela, Ana; Jimenez-Urbieta, Haritz; Carreiras, Manuel; Strafella, Antonio P.; Rodriguez-Oroz, Maria Cruz (Parkinsonism and Related Disorders, 2020)
      Background: Dynamic functional network analysis may add relevant information about the temporal nature of the neurocognitive alterations in PD patients with impulse control disorders (PD-ICD). Our aim was to investigate changes ...

      Dissociable rhythmic mechanisms enhance memory forconscious and nonconscious perceptual contents 

      Cheng, Phillip (Xin); Grover, Shrey; Wen, Wen; Sankaranarayanan, Shruthi; Davies, Sierra; Fragetta, Justine; Soto, David ORCID; Reinhart, Robert M. G. (PNAS, 2022)
      Understanding the neural mechanisms of conscious and unconscious experience is amajor goal of fundamental and translational neuroscience. Here, we target the earlyvisual cortex with a protocol of noninvasive, high-resolution ...

      Distinctive Frontal and Occipitotemporal Surface Features in Neglectful Parenting 

      León, Inmaculada; Rodrigo, María José; Quiñones, Ileana; Hernández‐Cabrera, Juan Andrés; García‐Pentón, Lorna (Brain sciences, 2021)
      Although the brain signatures of adaptive human parenting are well documented, the cortical features associated with maladaptive caregiving are underexplored. We investigated whether cortical thickness and surface area ...

      Do alternating-color words facilitate reading aloud text in Chinese? Evidence with developing and adult readers 

      Perea, Manuel; Wang, Xiaoyun (Memory & Cognition, 2017)
      Prior research has shown that colors induce perceptual grouping and, hence, colors can be used as word dividers during reading (Pinna & Deiana, 2014). This issue is particularly important for those writing systems that do ...

      Do Diacritical Marks Play a Role at the Early Stages of Word Recognition in Arabic? 

      Perea, Manuel; Abu Mallouh, Reem; Mohammed, Ahmed; Khalifa, Batoul; Carreiras, Manuel (Frontiers in Psychology, 2016)
      A crucial question in the domain of visual word recognition is whether letter similarity plays a role in the early stages of visual word processing. Here we focused on Arabic because in this language there are various ...

      Do handwritten words magnify lexical effects in visual word recognition? 

      Perea, Manuel; Gil-López, Cristina; Beléndez, Victoria; Carreiras, Manuel (The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2016)
      An examination of how the word recognition system is able to process handwritten words is fundamental to formulate a comprehensive model of visual word recognition. Previous research has revealed that the magnitude of ...

      Does bilingualism shape inhibitory control in the elderly? 

      Antón Ustaritz, Eneko; Fernández García, Yuriem; Carreiras, Manuel; Duñabeitia, Jon Andoni (Journal of Memory and Language, 2016)
      Bilingualism has been argued to benefit executive functioning. However, recent research suggests that this advantage may stem from uncontrolled factors or incorrectly matched samples. In this study we test the effects of ...

      Does incidental sequence learning allow us to better manage upcoming conflicting events? 

      Jiménez, Luis; Abrahamse, Elger L.; Méndez, Cástor; Braem, Senne (Psychological Research, 2020)
      Recent proposals emphasize the role of learning in empirical markers of conflict adaptation. Some of these proposals are rooted in the assumption that contingency learning works not only on stimulus–response events but ...
