It has been claimed that English has a metrical structure, or rhythm, in which stressed and unstressed syllables alternate. In previous research regular, alternating patterns have been shown to facilitate online language comprehension. Expa...
Reading Pinyin activates sublexcial character orthography for skilled Chinese readers [0.03%]

How do skilled Chinese readers, accustomed to characters, process Pinyin, a phonemic transcription of Chinese? Does the orthography of Chinese characters become activated? In four experiments, native speakers first made a meaning judgment o...

The language that people use to describe events reflects their perspective on the event. This linguistic encoding is influenced by conceptual accessibility, particularly whether individuals in the event are animate or agentive--animates are...
Discourse-level comprehension engages medial frontal Theory of Mind brain regions even for expository texts [0.03%]

In addition to understanding individual word meanings and processing the syntactic and semantic dependencies among those words within a sentence, language comprehension often requires constructing a higher-order discourse structure based on...
Investigating the fit between phonological feature systems and brain responses to speech using EEG [0.03%]

This paper describes a technique to assess the correspondence between patterns of similarity in the brain's response to speech sounds and the patterns of similarity encoded in phonological feature systems, by quantifying the recoverability ...
Processing of Self-Repairs in Stuttered and Non-Stuttered Speech [0.03%]

Previous research suggests that listeners can use the presence of speech disfluencies to predict upcoming linguistic input. But how is the processing of typical disfluencies affected when the speaker also produces atypical disfluencies, as ...
The use of context in resolving syntactic ambiguity: Structural and semantic influences [0.03%]
解决句法歧义中上下文的使用：结构和语义的影响

Verb bias facilitates parsing of temporarily ambiguous sentences, but it is unclear when and how comprehenders use probabilistic knowledge about the combinatorial properties of verbs in context. In a self-paced reading experiment, participa...
Predictive entrainment of natural speech through two fronto-motor top-down channels [0.03%]
自然语言预测性通同步通过两个额叶运动向下的通道完成

Natural communication between interlocutors is enabled by the ability to predict upcoming speech in a given context. Previously we showed that these predictions rely on a fronto-motor top-down control of low-frequency oscillations in audito...

Concepts (i.e., lexicalized classes of real or fictitious entities) play a central role in many human intellectual activities, including planning, thinking, reasoning, problem solving, and decision making. How do people acquire concepts in ...

Sixteen years ago, Sereno and Rayner (2003. Measuring word recognition in reading: eye movements and event-related potentials. Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 7(11), 489-493) illustrated how "by means of review and comparison" eye movement (E...
