Language-Related Skills in Bilingual Children With Specific Learning Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to better understand the characteristics of the language-related skills of bilingual children with specific learning disorders (SLD). The aim is achieved by analyzing language-related skills in a sample of bilingual (

Effects of lexical frequency on the post-exposure magnitude of recalibration in lexically guided perceptual learning: An explorative analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJASA Express Letters, 2023
Listeners use lexical information to guide the mapping between acoustic signals and representations of speech sound. This process is known as perceptual learning and results in recalibration of phonetic categories. The current work examines the effect of

Articulatory loop explanations of memory span and pronunciation rate correspondences: a cautionary note [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
In recent years, a number of memory span findings have been attributed to the operation of an articulatory loop (Baddeley & Hitch, 1974). These attributions have been made on the basis of finding a correspondence between span differences and ...

Word Frequency Is Associated With Cognitive Effort During Verbal Working Memory: A Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019
PurposePsycholinguistic models traditionally view verbal working memory capacity as independent from linguistic features; connectionist models suggest otherwise.

Orthographic consistency and word-frequency effects in auditory word recognition: New evidence from lexical decision and rime detection

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2011
Many studies have repeatedly shown an orthographic consistency effect in the auditory lexical decision task. Words with phonological rimes that could be spelled in multiple ways (i.e., inconsistent words) typically produce longer auditory lexical ...

How Do Foreign Language Learners Process L2 Emotion Words in Silent Reading? An Eye-Tracking Study

open access: yesLanguages, 2023
The current study aimed to examine the processing of emotion words in L2 silent reading. We conducted two experiments in which Arab learners of English as a foreign language (EFL) read short English sentences in which target words were embedded.

On the Effect of Low-Frequency Terms on Neural-IR Models [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval, 2019
Low-frequency terms are a recurring challenge for information retrieval models, especially neural IR frameworks struggle with adequately capturing infrequently observed words.

Contingency learning tracks with stimulus-response proportion no evidence of misprediction costs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate the processes involved in human contingency learning using the color-word contingency learning paradigm. In this task, participants respond to the print color of neutral words. Each word is frequently presented in one color.
