Language Production and Prediction in a Parallel Activation Model

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 936-947, October 2025.
Abstract Standard models of lexical production assume that speakers access representations of meaning, grammar, and different aspects of sound in a roughly sequential manner (whether or not they admit cascading or interactivity). In contrast, we review evidence for a parallel activation model in which these representations are accessed in parallel ...

Estruturas elásticas e fadiga muscular [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciências do Esporte, 2013
A fadiga muscular pode ser definida pela incapacidade de manter certa tarefa ao longo do tempo; os mecanismos neuromusculares e metabólicos envolvidos na contração muscular estão diretamente associados a esse fenômeno. Este estudo bibliográfico busca descrever as alterações nos elementos contráteis e elásticos envolvidos na contração muscular e sua ...

Translating novel findings of perceptual-motor codes into the neuro-rehabilitation of movement disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The bidirectional flow of perceptual and motor information has recently proven useful as rehabilitative tool for re-building motor memories. We analyzed how the visual-motor approach has been successfully applied in neurorehabilitation, leading to ...

The evolution of muscle spindles

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 110, Issue 10, Page 1401-1421, October 1, 2025.
Abstract Muscle spindles are stretch‐sensitive mechanoreceptors found in the skeletal muscles of most four‐limbed vertebrates. They are unique amongst sensory receptors in the ability to regulate their sensitivity by contraction of the intrafusal muscle fibres on which the sensory endings lie.

EEG theta and Mu oscillations during perception of human and robot actions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The perception of others' actions supports important skills such as communication, intention understanding, and empathy. Are mechanisms of action processing in the human brain specifically tuned to process biological agents?

Effects of Feeding Different Diets on Carcass Performance and Mutton Quality of Horro Sheep

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
Different feeding options affect Horro sheep meat quality. Horro sheep with a high‐quality diet can produce high‐quality meat. Dolichos lablab can be used as an alternative protein source for Horro sheep fattening. ABSTRACT The study evaluated the carcass performances and meat quality of yearling Horro rams with an initial body weight of 25.35 ± 2.34 ...

Hand to mouth: automatic imitation across effector systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The effector-specificity of automatic imitation was investigated using a stimulus-response compatibility (SRC) procedure in which participants were required to make an open or a close response with either their hand or their mouth.

Acquisition and Utilization of Recursive Rules in Motor Sequence Generation

open access: yesCognitive Science, Volume 49, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Recursive hierarchical embedding allows humans to generate multiple hierarchical levels using simple rules. We can acquire recursion from exposure to linguistic and visual examples, but only develop the ability to understand “multiple‐level” structures like “[[second] red] ball]” after mastering “same‐level” conjunctions like “[second] and ...
