Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Sound symbolism refers to associations between language sounds and certain perceptual or semantic properties. One well‐studied example is the maluma/takete effect, in which individuals tend to associate round‐sounding nonwords like maluma with round shapes, and spiky‐sounding nonwords like takete with spiky shapes.

An Imaging‐Guided Neural Model Explains Lexical Stress Alteration in Acquired Apraxia of Speech
Human Brain Mapping, Volume 46, Issue 17, 01 December 2025.This study reanalysed neuroimaging data from individuals with acquired apraxia of speech (AOS) to simulate lesion effects in the GODIVA neurocomputational speech model. The lesioned model reproduced characteristic lexical stress alterations in AOS, supporting a mechanistic explanation of the disorder involving an engaged feedback control system and ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract Estimating long‐term site velocities from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)‐derived daily displacement time series is vital for studying secular tectonic motions and establishing regional and global geodetic reference frames. However, this estimation is complicated by displacements caused by earthquakes, equipment changes, hydraulic ...

Experimental Physiology, Volume 110, Issue 12, Page 1966-1977, December 1, 2025.Abstract Disuse induces a disproportionate loss of muscle force compared with muscle mass, with unclear effects on voluntary muscle activation (VA) and peripheral contractility. Furthermore, the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) as a disuse countermeasure remains uncertain.
