Individual differences in visual pattern completion predict adaptation to degraded speech [0.03%]
视觉模式完成的个体差异预测降级语音的适应性

Recognizing acoustically degraded speech relies on predictive processing whereby incomplete auditory cues are mapped to stored linguistic representations via pattern recognition processes. While listeners vary in their ability to recognize ...
Language and communication functioning in children and adolescents with agenesis of the corpus callosum [0.03%]
无胼胝体儿童及青少年的语言和交流功能受损状况

Charlene Moser et al.
The corpus callosum, the largest white matter inter-hemispheric pathway, is involved in language and communication. In a cohort of 15 children and adolescents (8-15 years) with developmental absence of the corpus callosum (AgCC), this study...
Neural underpinnings of sentence reading in deaf, native sign language users [0.03%]
聋人以母语使用手语时大脑对句子阅读的理解机制研究
Justyna Kotowicz,Anna Banaszkiewicz,Gabriela Dzięgiel-Fivet et al.
Justyna Kotowicz et al.
The goal of this study was to investigate sentence-level reading circuits in deaf native signers, a unique group of deaf people who are immersed in a fully accessible linguistic environment from birth, and hearing readers. Task-based fMRI, ...
Production of relative clauses in Cantonese-speaking children with and without Developmental Language Disorder [0.03%]

Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) has been explained as either a deficit deriving from an abstract representational deficit or as emerging from difficulties in acquiring and coordinating multiple interacting cues guiding learning. These...

Considerable work has investigated similarities between the processing of music and language, but it remains unclear whether typical, genuine music can influence speech processing via cross-domain priming. To investigate this, we measured E...

A key aspect of linguistic communication involves semantic reference to objects. Presently, we investigate neural responses at objects when reference is disrupted, e.g., "The connoisseur tasted *that wine"… vs. "…*that roof…" Without any...
Neural oscillations during predictive sentence processing in young children [0.03%]
幼儿在预测性句子处理过程中的神经振荡现象研究

The neural correlates of predictive processing in language, critical for efficient sentence comprehension, is well documented in adults. Specifically, adults exhibit alpha power (9-12 Hz) suppression when processing high versus low predicta...
Native and non-native parsing of adjective placement - An ERP study of Mandarin and English sentence processing [0.03%]
汉语母语者和英语母语者的形容词位置处理的脑电研究
Max Wolpert,Hui Zhang,Shari Baum et al.
Max Wolpert et al.
Adjectives in English and Mandarin are typically prenominal, but the corresponding grammatical rules vary in subtle ways. Our event-related potential (ERP) study shows that native speakers of both languages rely on similar processing mechan...
Brain representations of lexical ambiguity: Disentangling homonymy, polysemy, and their meanings [0.03%]
词义歧义的脑机制:同形异义与多义的分离及其意义表征的区别
Xinyuan Liang,Fuchun Huang,Danqing Liu et al.
Xinyuan Liang et al.
In human languages, it is a common phenomenon for a single word to have multiple meanings. This study used fMRI to investigate how the brain processed different types of lexical ambiguity, and how it differentiated the meanings of ambiguous...
Original language versus dubbed movies: Effects on our brain and emotions [0.03%]
原始语言影片与配音影片:对我们的大脑和情绪的影响
Camilla Bellini,Nicola Del Maschio,Marco Gentile et al.
Camilla Bellini et al.
Converging evidence suggests that emotions are often dulled in one's foreign language. Here, we paired fMRI with a naturalistic viewing paradigm (i.e., original vs. dubbed versions of sad, fun and neutral movie clips) to investigate the neu...
