Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Emotion is key to human communication, and inferring emotion in a speaker's voice is a cross‐cultural and cross‐linguistic capability. Electroencephalography (EEG) studies of neural mechanisms supporting emotion perception have reported that early components of the event‐related potential (ERP) are modulated by emotion.

This is a question? Prosody and the N400 effect
, 2023 In spoken language, the prosodic contours of a speaker’s voice, including the volume, duration, and intonation of each syllable, influence the moment-to-moment processing of the utterance’s meaning. A robust body of literature supports the conclusion that violations of prosodic contours lead to a particular electrophysiological marker of processing ...

Listener characteristics modulate the semantic processing of native vs. foreign-accented speech.
PLoS ONE, 2018 Foreign accents have been shown to have considerable impact on how language is processed [1]. However, the impact of a foreign accent on semantic processing is not well understood.

, 2018 We use Brownian dynamics simulations and analytical theory to compare two prominent types of single molecule transitions. One is the adsorption transition of a loop (a chain with two ends bound to an attractive substrate) driven by an attraction ...

The Shallow Structure Hypothesis and Sentence Processing in a Second Language
Language and Linguistics Compass, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT The Shallow Structure Hypothesis (SSH) has been highly influential in the study of adult second language (L2) acquisition. With respect to L2 sentence processing, the essential claim is that L2 speakers rely less on syntactic information and more on alternative sources of information (e.g., lexical semantics and discourse) than adult first ...

Is there room for the BBC in the mental lexicon? On the recognition of acronyms [PDF]
, 2008 It has been suggested that acronyms like BBC are processed like real words. This claim has been based on improved performance with acronyms in the Reicher-Wheeler task, the letter string matching task, the visual feature integration task, and the N400 ...

Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Understanding speech in background music is a common real‐world challenge, particularly when vocals compete for linguistic processing resources. This study examined how the presence and intelligibility of sung lyrics influence semantic processing in autistic and nonautistic adults.

The role of literal meaning in figurative language comprehension: Evidence from masked priming ERP
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 The role of literal meaning during the construction of meaning that goes beyond pure literal composition was investigated by combining cross-modal masked priming and ERPs.

Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT While substantial individual differences in face processing abilities are well established, their neural basis remains underexplored. Moreover, while recent years have seen an increased interest in highly powered replications of event‐related potential (ERP) studies, experiments estimating ERP face processing effects with high precision are ...
