The processing of gender information in languages of distinct morphosyntactic gender marking systems
(2017-07-10)
When talking about people, gender information is taken as an essential feature during language processing. The gender here may be definitional (e.g., King is male or Queen is female), stereotypical (e.g., doctor, male-biased) ...
The time-course of semantic ambiguity: behavioural and electroencephalographic investigations
(2019-12-17)
¿Es posible asociar diferentes cantidades de procesamiento semántico a diferentes efectos de ambigüedad semántica? ¿Podría la dinámica temporal del procesamiento semántico por lo tanto explicar algunos de los efectos ...
Oscillatory characterization of sensory wordform pre-activation in the visual and auditory domains.
(2019-11-29)
Prediction has been proposed to be a fundamental cognitive mechanism. However, empirical data regarding the neural correlates of the predictions themselves are still scarce. One outstanding question, especially within the ...
Subject-verb agreement in real time: active feature maintenances as syntactic prediction.
(2020-01-10)
The current dissertation tests whether the long-distance subject-verb establishment is maintained active over the course of the sentence, by maintaining morphosyntactic information such as syntactic category and number ...
Neural Plasticity of Language Systems: evidence from fMRI experiments with adult language learners
(2021-09-07)
Functional specialisation and plasticity are fundamental organising principles of the brain. Language is a uniquely human phenomenon that requires a delicate balance between neural specialisation and plasticity, and language ...
Reading acquisition: from digital screening to neurocognitive bases in a transparent orthography
(2021-09-15)
El aprendizaje de la lectura es un área activa de investigación en la psicología y la neurociencia cognitiva. En las últimas décadas se ha avanzado enormemente en la comprensión de los procesos neurocognitivos subyacentes ...
Oscillatory and Structural Signatures of Language Plasticity in Brain Tumor Patients: a Longitudinal Study
(Wiley, 2021-04-15)
Recent evidence suggests that damage to the language network triggers its functional reorganization. Yet, the spectro-temporal fingerprints of this plastic rearrangement and its relation to anatomical changes is less well ...
Human thalamocortical connections and their involvement in language systems.
(2022-09-30)
During evolution the expansion of the neocortex has been linked with the emergence of higher level cognitive functions, such as reasoning, abstract thinking, or language in human beings. Current research on cognitive ...
