No “Self” Advantage for Audiovisual Speech Aftereffects
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2019)Although the default state of the world is that we see and hear other people talking, there is evidence that seeing and hearing ourselves rather than someone else may lead to visual (i.e., lip-read) or auditory “self” ... -
Not All Bilinguals Are the Same: A Call for More Detailed Assessments and Descriptions of Bilingual Experiences
(Behavioral Sciences, 2019)No two bilinguals are the same. Differences in bilingual experiences can affect language-related processes but have also been proposed to modulate executive functioning. Recently, there has been an increased interest in ... -
Not all errors are the same: ERP sensitivity to error typicality in foreign accented speech perception
(Cortex, 2019)Intercultural communication has become more and more frequent in the recent globalized society.When native listeners try to understand non-native speakers, they have to deal with different types of grammatical errors, ... -
Not everybody sees the ness in the darkness: individual differences in masked suffix priming
(Frontiers Media, 2016)The present study explores the role of individual differences in polymorphemic word recognition. Participants completed a masked priming lexical decision experiment on suffixed words in which targets could be preceded by ... -
Novel word learning deficits in infants at family risk for dyslexia
(Dyslexia, 2020)Children of reading age diagnosed with dyslexia show deficits in reading and spelling skills, but early markers of later dyslexia are already present in infancy in auditory processing and phonological domains. Deficits ... -
On linguistic properties of verbal number systems: A cross-linguistic study of number transcoding errors observed in a Basque--French bilingual patient with aphasia
(Lingua, 2018)Theories that plantation creoles were all born as pidgins at West African coast slave castles, including that proposed in McWhorter (2000), have not fared well among creolists, amidst a preference for supposing that creoles ... -
On the bilingualism effect in task switching∗
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2018)In one task-switching experiment, we compared bilinguals and monolinguals to explore the reliability of the bilingualism effect on the n-2 repetition cost. In a second task-switching experiment, we tested another group of ... -
On the effects of regional accents on memory and credibility
(Acta Psychologica, 2018)The information we obtain from how speakers sound—for example their accent—affects how we interpret the messages they convey. A clear example is foreign accented speech, where reduced intelligibility and speaker's social ... -
On the nature of consonant/vowel differences in letter position coding: Evidence from developing and adult readers
(British Journal of Psychology, 2016)In skilled adult readers, transposed-letter effects (jugde-JUDGE) are greater for consonant than for vowel transpositions. These differences are often attributed to phonological rather than orthographic processing. To ... -
On the overlap between bilingual language control and domain-general executive control
(Acta Psychologica, 2016)We explored the overlap between bilingual language control (bLC) and domain-general executive control (EC) by focusing on inhibitory control processes. We tested 62 bilinguals in linguistic and non-linguistic switching tasks ... -
Online Adaptation to Altered Auditory Feedback Is Predicted by Auditory Acuity and Not by Domain-General Executive Control Resources
(Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018)When a speaker's auditory feedback is altered, he adapts for the perturbation by altering his own production, which demonstrates the role of auditory feedback in speech motor control. In the present study, we explored the ... -
Out-of-Synchrony Speech Entrainment in Developmental Dyslexia
(Human Brain Mapping, 2016)Developmental dyslexia is a reading disorder often characterized by reduced awareness of speech units. Whether the neural source of this phonological disorder in dyslexic readers results from the malfunctioning of the ... -
Perceptual facilitation of word recognition through motor activation during sentence comprehension
(cortex, 2018)Despite the growing literature on anticipatory language processing, the brain dynamics of this high-level predictive process are still unclear. In the present MEG study, we analyzed pre- and post-stimulus oscillatory ... -
Phase−amplitude coupling between theta and gamma oscillations adapts to speech rate
(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, ... -
Phonatory and articulatory representations of speech production in cortical and subcortical fMRI responses
(Scientific Reports, 2020)Speaking involves coordination of multiple neuromotor systems, including respiration, phonation and articulation. Developing non-invasive imaging methods to study how the brain controls these systems is critical for ... -
Phonemic contrasts under construction? Evidence from Basque
(Infancy, 2020)Attunement theories of speech perception development suggest that native-language exposure is one of the main factors shaping infants' phonemic discrimination capacity within the second half of their first year. Here, ... -
Phonological and orthographic coding in deaf skilled readers
(Cognition, 2017)Written language is very important in daily life. However, most deaf people do not achieve good reading levels compared to their hearing peers. Previous research has mainly focused on their difficulties when reading in a ... -
Physiology of Language
(Encyclopedia of Evolutionary Psychological Science, 2016)Comprehending and producing linguistic utterances relies on complex phonological, syntactic, and semantic representations that we incrementally and unconsciously build as the message unfolds in time. Behind these cognitive ... -
Prediction is Production: The missing link between language production and comprehension
(Scientific Reports, 2018)Language comprehension often involves the generation of predictions. It has been hypothesized that such prediction-for-comprehension entails actual language production. Recent studies provided evidence that the production ... -
Prediction of Agreement and Phonetic Overlap Shape Sublexical Identification
(Language and Speech, 2017)The mapping between the physical speech signal and our internal representations is rarely straightforward. When faced with uncertainty, higher-order information is used to parse the signal and because of this, the lexicon ...
