The aim of this study is to evaluate how nonspeech pitch contours of varying shape influence latency and amplitude of cortical pitch-specific response (CPR) components differentially as a function of language experience. Stimuli included ti...
Developmental differences in the influence of phonological similarity on spoken word processing in Mandarin Chinese [0.03%]

The developmental trajectory of spoken word recognition has been well established in Indo-European languages, but to date remains poorly characterized in Mandarin Chinese. In this study, typically developing children (N=17; mean age 10; 5) ...
Speed discrimination predicts word but not pseudo-word reading rate in adults and children [0.03%]
速度辨别影响成人和儿童的单词阅读速率但不影响伪词阅读速率

Visual processing in the magnocellular pathway is a reputed influence on word recognition and reading performance. However, the mechanisms behind this relationship are still unclear. To explore this concept, we measured reading rate, speed-...
Electrophysiological registration of phonological perception in the subthalamic nucleus of patients with Parkinson's Disease [0.03%]

Phonological processing is usually associated with the activation of cortical areas, especially in the left cerebral hemisphere. This study examined if phonologically elicited evoked potentials can be recorded directly from the subthalamic ...
Neural basis of language switching in the brain: fMRI evidence from Korean-Chinese early bilinguals [0.03%]
大脑中语言转换的神经基础：来自早期双语者的功能磁共振证据

Miaomei Lei
Using fMRI, we conducted two types of property generation task that involved language switching, with early bilingual speakers of Korean and Chinese. The first is a more conventional task in which a single language (L1 or L2) was used withi...
A structural distance effect for backward anaphora in Broca's area: an fMRI study [0.03%]
关于Broca区的反向代词研究：一项fMRI研究
William Matchin,Jon Sprouse,Gregory Hickok
William Matchin
Accounts of the role of Broca's area in sentence comprehension range from specific syntactic operations to domain-general processes. The present study was designed to tease apart these two general accounts by measuring the BOLD response to ...
