Contrasting functional imaging parametric maps: The mislocation problem and alternative solutions
(NeuroImage, 2018)
In the field of neuroimaging, researchers often resort to contrasting parametric maps to identify differences between
conditions or populations. Unfortunately, contrast patterns mix effects related to amplitude and ...
Agreement attraction in Serbian: decomposing markedness
(The Mental Lexicon, 2016)
Asymmetric number attraction effects have been typically explained via a privative markedness account: plural nouns are more marked than singular ones and thus stronger attractors. However, this account does not explain ...
Basic Composition and Enriched Integration in Idiom Processing: An EEG Study
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017)
We investigated the extent to which the literal meanings of the words forming literally plausible idioms (e.g., break the ice) are semantically composed and how the idiomatic meaning is integrated in the unfolding sentence ...
Right-hemisphere coherence to speech at prereading stages predicts reading performance one year later
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Neural entrainment to the low-frequency modulations of speech might contribute
significantly to reading acquisition. Still, no previous study has actually attempted to
establish a longitudinal link between them. The ...
Is there a common oscillatory brain mechanism for producing and predicting language?
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2016)
Recent proposals have suggested that language prediction is supported by the neurophysiological
mechanisms involved in language production. Both prediction and production in language imply
information processing percolating ...
Hierarchical levels of representation in language prediction: The influence of first language acquisition in highly proficient bilinguals
(Cognition, 2017)
Language comprehension is largely supported by predictive mechanisms that account for the ease and
speed with which communication unfolds. Both native and proficient non-native speakers can efficiently
handle contextual ...
Temporal uncertainty enhances suppression of neural responses to predictable visual stimuli
(NeuroImage, 2021)
Contextual information triggers predictions about the content ( “what ”) of environmental stimuli to update an in- ternal generative model of the surrounding world. However, visual information dynamically changes across ...
Speech-brain phase coupling is enhanced in low contextual semantic predictability conditions
(Neuropsychologia, 2021)
Semantic prediction and cortical entrainment to the acoustic landmarks of the speech envelope are two fundamental
yet qualitatively different mechanisms that facilitate speech comprehension. However, it is not clear ...
“Words and emotions in sentence context”: a commentary on Hinojosa, Moreno and Ferré (2019)
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2020)
Finding identity in the midst of ambiguity: case and number disambiguation in Basque
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2020)
Restrictive contextual information has been found to bias syntactic disambiguation, when only one
alternative leads to a meaningful interpretation. The current study tests whether disambiguation
can be influenced by ...
