The role of prosody in reading comprehension: evidence from poor comprehenders

open access: yes, 2019
Text reading prosody and reading comprehension are related, but both rely on decoding. The aim of the current study was, therefore, to disentangle the contribution of decoding from that of prosody skills.

Switching of Magnetic Order via Non‐Magnetic Al Addition in FeCoNiMnAlx Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Non‐magnetic Al addition provides a sensitive handle to switch the magnetic order in high entropy FeCoNiMnAlx thin films via fcc to bcc phase transformation. Films with fcc structure exhibit a large exchange bias, while bcc films exhibit enhanced ferromagnetic properties, reflecting the magnetic ground state of Mn which switches from antiferromagnetic ...

Optimizing Angiopep‐2 Density on Polymeric Nanoparticles for Enhanced Blood–Brain Barrier Penetration and Glioblastoma Targeting: Insights From In Vitro and In Vivo Experiments

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The Angiopep‐2 peptide density on polymeric nanoparticles significantly impacts blood–brain barrier (BBB) penetration. This study explores this nuanced relationship using various in vitro models and in vivo assays, revealing that dynamic models better predict BBB penetration.

Oxytocin does not improve emotional prosody recognition in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders

open access: yesComprehensive Psychoneuroendocrinology, 2020
Schizophrenia-spectrum disorders (SSD) are associated with deficits in emotional prosody recognition. Whether administration of oxytocin can improve emotional prosody recognition accuracy in SSD is unknown.

The Functional Neuroanatomy of Lexical Tone Perception: An Activation Likelihood Estimation Meta-Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
In tonal language such as Chinese, lexical tone serves as a phonemic feature in determining word meaning. Meanwhile, it is close to prosody in terms of suprasegmental pitch variations and larynx-based articulation.

Single prosodic phrase sentences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A series of production and perception experiments investigating the prosody and well-formedness of special sentences, called Wide Focus Partial Fronting (WFPF), which consist of only one prosodic phrase and a unique initial accented argument, are ...

French Learners of L2 English: Intonation Boundaries and the Marking of Lexical Stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
To test my hypothesis, I collected passages of read speech by thirteen upper intermediate/advanced French learners of English along with the same passage read by ten native English speakers. Two trisyllabics carrying primary stress on the second syllable

Tunable Thermoshrinkable Hydrogels for 4D Fabrication of Cell‐Seeded Channels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A thermoresponsive polymer with methacrylate groups for photo‐cross‐linking, based on polyethylene glycol, N‐isopropylacrylamide, and 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate is synthetized to yield hydrogels that shrink upon temperature increase. The new polymer enables the fabrication of cell‐laden perfusable channels with diameters below 200 µm by combining ...

Comparing timing models of two Swiss German dialects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Research on dialectal varieties was for a long time concentrated on phonetic aspects of language. While there was a lot of work done on segmental aspects, suprasegmentals remained unexploited until the last few years, despite the fact that prosody was ...
