Metacognitive scaffolding boosts cognitive and neural benefits following executive attention training in children
(Developmental Science, 2019)
Interventions including social scaffolding and metacognitive strategies have been used in
educational settings to promote cognition. In addition, increasing evidence shows that
computerized process-based
training enhances ...
Predictors for functional and anatomic outcomes in macular edema secondary to non-infectious uveitis
(Public Library Science, 2019-01-24)
Aims
We aimed to investigate predictive factors for visual and anatomic outcomes in patients with macular edema secondary to non-infectious uveitis.
Material and methods
We conducted a multicenter, prospective, ...
Making sense of social interaction: Emotional coherence drives semantic integration as assessed by event-related potentials
(Neuropsychologia, 2019)
We compared event-related potentials during sentence reading, using impression formation equations of a model of affective coherence, to investigate the role of affective content processing during meaning making. The model ...
Fine-Tuning of Sirtuin 1 Expression Is Essential to Protect the Liver From Cholestatic Liver Disease
(Wiley, 2019-02)
Cholestasis comprises aetiologically heterogeneous conditions characterized by accumulation of bile acids in the liver that actively contribute to liver damage. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) regulates liver regeneration and bile acid ...
Talker and Acoustic Variability in Learning to Produce Nonnative Sounds: Evidence from Articulatory Training
(Language Learning, 2019)
Compared to low‐variability training, high‐variability training leads to better learning outcomes and supports generalization of learning. However, it is unclear whether the learning advantage is driven by multiple talkers ...
Racetrack potentials and the de Sitter swampland conjectures
(Springer, 2019-01)
We show that one can find de Sitter critical points (saddle points) in models of flux compactification of Type IIB String Theory without any uplifting terms and in the presence of several moduli. We demonstrate this by ...
The effect of the evaporation rate on electrochemical measurements with paper-based analytical devices and its minimisation by enclosure with adhesive tape
(Elsevier, 2019-02-15)
In this work, the effect of liquid evaporation on electrochemical measurements with electrochemical paper-based devices (ePADs) is studied. The time evolution of cyclic voltammograms of ferricyanide is used to study the ...
Neural substrates of subphonemic variation and lexical competition in spoken word recognition
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2019)
In spoken word recognition, subphonemic variation influences lexical activation, with sounds near a category boundary increasing phonetic competition as well as lexical competition. The current study investigated the ...
How much do visual cues help listeners in perceiving accented speech?
(Applied Psycholinguistics, 2019)
It has been documented that lipreading facilitates the understanding of difficult speech, such as noisy speech and time-compressed speech. However, relatively little work has addressed the role of visual information in ...
Differential brain-to-brain entrainment while speaking and listening in native and foreign languages
(cortex, 2019)
The study explores interbrain neural coupling when interlocutors engage in a conversation whether it be in their native or nonnative language. To this end, electroencephalographic hyperscanning was used to study brain-to-brain ...
