Simultaneous Bayesian correction of slab boundary artifacts and bias field for high resolution ex vivo MRI
(IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2016)Multi-slab MRI overcomes some of the hardware limitations of today's clinical scanners (e.g., memory size), enabling the acquisition of ultra-high resolution ex vivo MRI of the whole human brain with high SNR efficiency. ... -
Sleep in children triggers rapid reorganization of memory-related brain processes
(NeuroImage, 2016)Behavioral evidence shows that sleep is crucial for the consolidation of declarative memories in children as in adults. However, the underlying cerebral mechanisms remain virtually unexplored. Using magnetoencephalography, ... -
Sleep not just protects memories against forgetting, it also makes them more accessible
(Cortex, 2016)Two published datasets (Dumay & Gaskell, 2007, Psychological Science; Tamminen, Payne, Stickgold, Wamsley, & Gaskell, 2010, Journal of Neuroscience) showing a positive influence of sleep on declarative memory were ... -
Sleep State Modulates Resting-State Functional Connectivity in Neonates
(Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020)The spontaneous cerebral activity that gives rise to resting-state networks (RSNs) has been extensively studied in infants in recent years. However, the influence of sleep state on the presence of observable RSNs has yet ... -
Some people are ‘‘More Lexical” than others
(Cognition, 2016)People can understand speech under poor conditions, even when successive pieces of the waveform are flipped in time. Using a new method to measure perception of such stimuli, we show that words with sounds based on rapid ... -
Sound changes that lead to seeing longer-lasting shapes
(Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2018)To survive, people must construct an accurate representation of the world around them. There is a body of research on visual scene analysis, and a largely separate literature on auditory scene analysis. The current study ... -
SPALEX: A Spanish Lexical Decision Database From a Massive Online Data Collection
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2018)... -
Sparse coupled logistic regression to estimate co-activation and modulatory influences of brain regions
(Journal of Neural Engineering, 2020)Accurate mapping of the functional interactions between remote brain areas with resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging requires the quantification of their underlying dynamics. In conventional methodological ... -
Spatial frequency tuning of motor responses reveals differential contribution of dorsal and ventral systems to action comprehension
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020)Understanding object-directed actions performed by others is central to everyday life. This ability is thought to rely on the interaction between the dorsal action observation network (AON) and a ventral object recognition ... -
Spatialization in working memory is related to literacy and reading direction: Culture “literarily” directs our thoughts
(Cognition, 2018)The ability to maintain arbitrary sequences of items in the mind contributes to major cognitive faculties, such as language, reasoning, and episodic memory. Previous research suggests that serial order working memory is ... -
Spatiotemporal dynamics of postoperative functional plasticity in patients with brain tumors in language areas
(Brain and Language, 2020)Postoperative functional neuroimaging provides a unique opportunity to investigate the neural mechanisms that facilitate language network reorganization. Previous studies in patients with low grade gliomas (LGGs) in ... -
Speaker matters: Natural inter-speaker variation affects 4-month-olds’ perception of audio-visual speech
(First Language, 2020)In the language development literature, studies often make inferences about infants’ speech perception abilities based on their responses to a single speaker. However, there can be significant natural variability across ... -
Speech rhythm as naturally occurring and culturally transmitted behavioral patterns
(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 ... -
Speech Rhythm Convergence as a Social Coalition Signal
(Evolutionary Psychology, 2019)Patterns of nonverbal and verbal behavior of interlocutors become more similar as communication progresses. Rhythm entrainment promotes prosocial behavior and signals social bonding and cooperation. Yet, it is unknown if ... -
Speech-specific audiovisual integration modulates induced theta-band oscillations
(PLoS ONE, 2019)... -
Splitting the variance of statistical learning performance: A parametric investigation of exposure duration and transitional probabilities
(Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2016)What determines individuals’ efficacy in detecting regularities in visual statistical learning? Our theoretical starting point assumes that the variance in performance of statistical learning (SL) can be split into the ... -
Statistical learning research: A critical review and possible new directions.
(Psychological Bulletin, 2019)Statistical learning (SL) is involved in a wide range of basic and higher-order cognitive functions and is taken to be an important building block of virtually all current theories of information processing. In the last ... -
Statistical Speech Segmentation in Tone Languages: The Role of Lexical Tones
(Language and Speech, 2018)Research has demonstrated distinct roles for consonants and vowels in speech processing. For example, consonants have been shown to support lexical processes, such as the segmentation of speech based on transitional ... -
Stereotypes override grammar: Social knowledge in sentence comprehension
(Brain & Language, 2016)Many studies have provided evidence for the automaticity and immediacy with which stereotypical knowledge affects our behavior. However, less is known about how such social knowledge interacts with linguistic cues during ... -
Stimulation sites in the subthalamic nucleus and clinical improvement in Parkinson's disease: a new approach for active contact localization
(Journal of Neurosurgery, 2016)OBJECTIVE Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is widely used in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, which target area of this region results in the highest antiparkinsonian efficacy ...
