Neocortical activity tracks the hierarchical linguistic structures of self-produced speech during reading aloud
(NeuroImage, 2020)
How the human brain uses self-generated auditory information during speech production is rather unsettled.
Current theories of language production consider a feedback monitoring system that monitors the auditory
consequences ...
Cross-linguistic transfer in bilinguals reading in two alphabetic orthographies: The grain size accommodation hypothesis
(Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2018)
Reading acquisition is one of the most complex and demanding learning processes faced by children in their first years of schooling. If reading acquisition is challenging in one language, how is it when reading is acquired ...
Does the Visual Attention Span Play a Role in Reading in Arabic?
(Scientific Studies of Reading, 2018)
It is unclear whether the association between the visual attention (VA) span and reading differs across languages. Here we studied this relationship in Arabic, where the use of specific reading strategies depends on the ...
Learning to Read Bilingually Modulates the Manifestations of Dyslexia in Adults
(Scientific Studies of Reading, 2018)
According to the Grain Size Accommodation hypothesis (Lallier & Carreiras, 2017), learning to read in two languages differing in orthographic consistency leads to a cross-linguistic modulation of reading and spelling ...
Does the visual attention span play a role in the morphological processing of orthographic stimuli?
(Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2019)
We investigated whether the link between visual attention (VA) span and reading is modulated by the presence of
morphemes. Second and fourth grade children, with Basque as their first language, named morphologically complex ...
Cross-linguistic transfer in bilingual reading is item specific
(Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2021)
The grain size of orthographic representations prompted by a consistent orthography (like
Spanish or Basque) increases if reading is simultaneously learned in another language with
an inconsistent orthography (like ...
Impaired neural response to speech edges in dyslexia
(ScienceDirect, 2021)
Speech comprehension has been proposed to critically rely on oscillatory cortical tracking, that is, phase alignment of neural oscillations to the slow temporal modulations (envelope) of speech. Speech-brain entrainment ...
The Deployment of Young Readers´ Visual Attention across Orthographic Strings: The Influence of Stems and Suffixes
(Scientific Studies of Reading, 2021)
The goal of the paper was to investigate whether morphological units –
stems and suffixes – influence orthographic processing by modulating
visual attention demands to the task. Orthographic processing was measured
with ...
Enhancing reading performance through action video games: the role of visual attention span
(Scientific Reports, 2017)
Recent studies reported that Action Video Game-AVG training improves not only certain attentional components, but also reading fluency in children with dyslexia. We aimed to investigate the shared attentional components ...
Amodal Atypical Neural Oscillatory Activity in Dyslexia: A Cross-Linguistic Perspective
(Clinical Psychological Science, 2017)
It has been proposed that atypical neural oscillations in both the auditory and the visual modalities could explain why
some individuals fail to learn to read and suffer from developmental dyslexia. However, the role of ...
