Overreliance on Orthographic Similarity in L2‐Japanese Conceptual Processing by L1‐Chinese Learners

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Orthographic and phonological similarities between first (L1) and second (L2) languages can facilitate L2 processing. Particularly, L1‐Chinese learners of L2‐Japanese can benefit from the shared morphosyllabic Chinese characters (Japanese kanji/Chinese hanzi) because of their similar orthographies.

ABSTRACT The use of English accents beyond standard American and British varieties has been increasingly advocated in English language education, particularly in listening instruction and assessment. However, little is known about learners’ perspectives on diverse accents in terms of their use in different types of listening materials.

Early manifestations of unexpected bilingualism in minimally verbal autism

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Unexpected bilingualism (UB) in autism, in which children speak languages not spoken in their social environment, has been sporadically reported. UB implies that autistic children can acquire languages in a non‐socially interactive way. The early minimally verbal period in autism could be critical for non‐interactive language acquisition ...

Mini social cognition and emotional assessment: Diagnostic performance and neural correlates in behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed at validating the Mini Social Cognition and Emotional Assessment (Mini‐SEA) in a German cohort of mildly impaired behavioural‐variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) patients and healthy controls. The Mini‐SEA comprises the Facial Emotion Recognition Test (FERT) and the Faux Pas Test (FPT) measuring Theory of Mind (ToM) abilities in ...

Exploring Theory of Mind abilities in patients with probable idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated Theory of Mind (ToM) deficits in patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition affecting motor, cognitive and autonomic functions. Given the overlap between ToM‐related neural networks and those affected in iNPH, we examined whether ToM impairments are a feature of the disease ...

Animal fluency in people with Parkinson's disease: Item‐based performance before and after deep brain stimulation surgery

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract People with Parkinson disease (PD) after surgery for deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN‐DBS) often decline in animal fluency due to impairments in executive functions and/or language. Item‐based measures of animal fluency may shed light on the specific nature of this decline, and into the strategies used when ...

Otra vez hablando de lo que habla [PDF]

marcoELE. Revista de Didáctica Español Lengua Extranjera, 2011
Reconociendo la contradicción que se da entre la lengua DE que se habla y la lengua EN que se habla, se trata de hacer sentir al lector la inmensa complejidad de la máquina de la lengua, que nos pasa casi enteramente desapercibida.

Double dissociation between conduction aphasia and conduction agraphia supports a ventro‐dorsal partition of the left arcuate fasciculus

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We identified in two awake surgery cases a postoperative double dissociation between phonological and graphemic output buffer deficits. Using lesion‐symptom mapping from ischaemic mini‐strokes and preoperative tractography, we demonstrated that the phonological (resp. graphemic) disorder fitted with ventral (resp.
