Evidence of an Effect of Gaming Experience on Visuospatial Attention in Deaf but Not in Hearing Individuals

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
Auditory cortex in congenitally deaf early sign language users reorganizes to support cognitive processing in the visual domain. However, evidence suggests that the potential benefits of this reorganization are largely unrealized. At the same time, there

Associations Between Sign Language Skills and Resting-State Functional Connectivity in Deaf Early Signers

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
The processing of a language involves a neural language network including temporal, parietal, and frontal cortical regions. This applies to spoken as well as signed languages. Previous research suggests that spoken language proficiency is associated with

Imitation, sign language skill and the Developmental Ease of Language Understanding (D-ELU) model

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
Imitation and language processing are closely connected. According to the Ease of Language Understanding (ELU) model (Rönnberg et al., 2013) pre-existing mental representation of lexical items facilitates language understanding. Thus, imitation of manual

The Influence of Form- and Meaning-Based Predictions on Cortical Speech Processing Under Challenging Listening Conditions: A MEG Study

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Under adverse listening conditions, prior linguistic knowledge about the form (i.e., phonology) and meaning (i.e., semantics) help us to predict what an interlocutor is about to say.
