Identifying cortical first and second language sites via navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation of the left hemisphere in bilinguals [0.03%]
通过导航经颅磁刺激法识别双语者左半球第一和第二语言的大脑皮层区域

Lorena Tussis et al.
The cortical areas that code for the first (L1) and second language (L2) in bilinguals have still not been sufficiently explored. Thus, this study investigated the left-hemispheric distribution of the L1 and L2 using repetitive navigated tr...
Temporal acoustic measures distinguish primary progressive apraxia of speech from primary progressive aphasia [0.03%]
时间声学测量可以区分原发进行性构音障碍和原发进行性失语症
Joseph R Duffy,Holly Hanley,Rene Utianski et al.
Joseph R Duffy et al.
The purpose of this study was to determine if acoustic measures of duration and syllable rate during word and sentence repetition, and a measure of within-word lexical stress, distinguish speakers with primary progressive apraxia of speech ...
Sleep deprivation disrupts the contribution of the hippocampus to the formation of novel lexical associations [0.03%]

Sleep is involved in the mechanisms underlying memory consolidation and brain plasticity. Consolidation refers to a process through which labile memories are reorganized into more stable ones. An intriguing but often neglected question conc...
Communicative-pragmatic disorders in traumatic brain injury: The role of theory of mind and executive functions [0.03%]
脑外伤的功能性沟通障碍:心理理论和执行功能的作用
Francesca M Bosco,Alberto Parola,Katiuscia Sacco et al.
Francesca M Bosco et al.
Previous research has shown that communicative-pragmatic ability, as well as executive functions (EF) and Theory of Mind (ToM), may be impaired in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the role of such cognitive deficits i...
Task-dependent neural and behavioral effects of verb argument structure features [0.03%]

Understanding which verb argument structure (VAS) features (if any) are part of verbs' lexical entries and under which conditions they are accessed provides information on the nature of lexical representations and sentence construction. We ...

Wessel O van Dam et al.
Grounded cognition accounts of semantic representation posit that brain regions traditionally linked to perception and action play a role in grounding the semantic content of words and sentences. Sensory-motor systems are thought to support...
Unspeakable motion: Selective action-verb impairments in Parkinson's disease patients without mild cognitive impairment [0.03%]
帕金森病患者的不可言说的动作:在没有轻度认知障碍的情况下动词损伤的选择性
Yamile Bocanegra,Adolfo M García,Francisco Lopera et al.
Yamile Bocanegra et al.
Parkinson's disease (PD) patients show marked impairments in processing action verbs, and to a lesser extent, concrete (specially, manipulable) nouns. However, it is still unclear to what extent deficits in each of these categories are infl...

Spoken language production theories and lesion studies highlight several important prelinguistic conceptual preparation processes involved in the production of cohesive and coherent connected speech. Cohesion and coherence broadly connect s...
Reorganization of brain function after a short-term behavioral intervention for stuttering [0.03%]
短期行为干预治疗口吃后的脑功能重组
Chunming Lu,Lifen Zheng,Yuhang Long et al.
Chunming Lu et al.
This study investigated changes in brain function that occurred over a 7-day behavioral intervention for adults who stutter (AWS). Thirteen AWS received the intervention (AWS+), and 13 AWS did not receive the intervention (AWS-). There were...

Regions within the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG) have simultaneously been implicated in syntactic processing and cognitive control. Accounts attempting to unify LIFG's function hypothesize that, during comprehension, cognitive control ...
