Phonological Working Memory for Words and Nonwords in Cerebral Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2017
Purpose The primary purpose of this study was to identify the brain bases of phonological working memory (the short-term maintenance of speech sounds) using behavioral tasks analogous to clinically sensitive assessments of nonword repetition. The secondary purpose of the study was to identify how individual differences in brain

Differences in Immediate and Delayed Suggestibility Among Children With Dyslexia and Controls

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The primary aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between dyslexia and suggestibility in children, and the extent to which this relationship is accounted for by performance on Word Tasks. Participants comprised 95 children with dyslexia and 109 controls.

The relationship between morphological awareness and word reading in Brazilian Portuguese: a longitudinal study

open access: yesPsicologia: Reflexão e Crítica, 2023
Studies have provided evidence that morphological awareness contributes to word reading in opaque languages such as English. However, this relationship is not yet established for Brazilian Portuguese, a much less opaque language.

The role of working memory in carrying and borrowing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The present study analyzed the role of phonological and executive components of working memory in the borrow operation in complex subtractions (Experiments 1 and 2) and in the carry operation in complex multiplications (Experiments 3 and 4).

Working memory and working attention: What could possibly evolve? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The concept of “working” memory is traceable back to nineteenth century theorists (Baldwin, 1894; James 1890) but the term itself was not used until the mid-twentieth century (Miller, Galanter & Pribram, 1960).

Working memory compensates for hearing related phonological processing deficit

open access: yesJournal of Communication Disorders, 2013
Acquired hearing impairment is associated with gradually declining phonological representations. According to the Ease of Language Understanding (ELU) model, poorly defined representations lead to mismatch in phonologically challenging tasks. To resolve the mismatch, reliance on working memory capacity (WMC) increases.

Contralateral language network integration predicts and protects against naming decline after temporal lobe resection

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Anterior temporal lobe resection (ATLR) is an effective treatment for drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) but carries a substantial risk of language impairment, particularly in naming. Understanding and predicting the impact of ATLR on language functions remains a major clinical challenge.

Learning novel sound patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The acquisition of vocabulary represents a key phenomenon in language acquisition, yet it is still poorly understood. Gathercole and colleagues have recently provided a rigorous test of vocabulary knowledge (the nonword repetition test, Gathercole ...

Love is . . . an abstract word: the influence of phonological and semantic factors on verbal short-term memory in Williams syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
It has been claimed that verbal short-term memory in Williams syndrome is characterised by an over-use of phonological coding alongside a reduced contribution of lexical semantics.

Phonological representation of words in working memory during sentence reading [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2004
The temporal dynamics of a visual target word's phonological representation was examined by presentation of an irrelevant spoken companion word when the participant's eyes reached the target's location during sentence reading. The spoken word was identical, similar, or dissimilar to the phonological specification of the visual target.
