The ERP signature of the contextual diversity effect in visual word recognition
(Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017)
Behavioral experiments have revealed that words appearing in many different contexts are responded to faster than words that appear in few contexts. Although this contextual diversity (CD) effect has been found to be ...
The Development of Spontaneous Sound-Shape Matching in Monolingual and Bilingual Infants During the First Year
(Developmental Psychology, 2017)
Recently it has been proposed that sensitivity to nonarbitrary relationships between speech sounds and objects potentially bootstraps lexical acquisition. However, it is currently unclear whether preverbal infants (e.g., ...
Location of navigation menus in websites: an experimental study with Arabic users
(Universal Access in the Information Society, 2017)
While Arabic users represent by far the fastest growing language population on the Internet, research about how the peculiarities of Arabic language may shape users’ web interactions is still scarce. The preferences of ...
Vacuum state of the Dirac field in de Sitter space and entanglement entropy
(Springer, 2017-03-13)
We compute the entanglement entropy of a free massive Dirac field between two causally disconnected open charts in de Sitter space. We first derive the Bunch-Davies vacuum mode functions of the Dirac field. We find there ...
Left Superior Temporal Gyrus Is Coupled to Attended Speech in a Cocktail-Party Auditory Scene
(The Journal of Neuroscience, 2016)
Using a continuous listening task, we evaluated the coupling between the listener’s cortical activity and the temporal envelopes of
different sounds in a multitalker auditory scene using magnetoencephalography and ...
The relation between working memory and language comprehension in signers and speakers
(Acta Psychologica, 2017)
This study investigated the relation between linguistic and spatial working memory (WM) resources and
language comprehension for signed compared to spoken language. Sign languages are both linguistic and visualspatial,
and ...
World knowledge and novel information integration during L2 speech comprehension
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2017)
In this study we explore whether world knowledge (WK) processing differs between individuals listening to their native (L1)
or their non-native (L2) language. We recorded event-related brain potentials in L1 and L2 speakers ...
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 ...
Infective endocarditis in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy A multicenter, prospective, cohort study
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2016-06)
Infective endocarditis (IE) complicating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a poorly known entity. Although current guidelines do not recommend IE antibiotic prophylaxis (IEAP) in HCM, controversy remains.This study ...
Creating stable Floquet–Weyl semimetals by laser-driving of 3D Dirac materials
(Nature Publishing, 2017-01-17)
Tuning and stabilizing topological states, such as Weyl semimetals, Dirac semimetals or topological insulators, is emerging as one of the major topics in materials science. Periodic driving of many-body systems offers a ...
