The Acquisition of /ɪ/–/iː/ Is Challenging: Perceptual and Production Evidence from Cypriot Greek Speakers of English

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences, 2022
This study aims to investigate the perception and production of the English /ɪ/–/iː/ vowel contrast by Cypriot Greek speakers of English as a second language (L2). The participants completed a classification test in which they classified the L2 vowels in

Neurobiology of Speech Production

open access: yes, 2016
Speaking is a dynamic process in which neural representations associated with language and the constantly changing vocal tract configurations used to produce speech are seamlessly integrated to communicate. This integrative process requires a stable repertoire of motor routines and associated flexible sensorimotor and cognitive processes for speech ...

Articulatory Control by Gestural Coupling and Syllable Pulses

open access: yesLanguages
Explaining the relative timing of consonant and vowel articulations (C-V timing) is an important function of speech production models. This article explores how C-V timing might be studied from the perspective of the C/D Model, particularly the ...

Functional heterogeneity within the default network during semantic processing and speech production.

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2012
This fMRI study investigated the functional heterogeneity of the core nodes of the default mode network (DMN) during language processing. The core nodes of the DMN were defined as task-induced deactivations over multiple tasks in 94 healthy subjects.

Speech errors across the lifespan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Dell, Burger, and Svec (1997) proposed that the proportion of speech errors classified as anticipations (e.g., " moot and mouth ") can be predicted solely from the overall error rate, such that the greater the error rate, the lower the anticipatory ...

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Supporting Survivor‐Centered Care Through Digital Health Integration

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Survivors of childhood cancer face barriers to receiving guideline‐based, long‐term follow‐up care. Two digital tools, Passport for Care (PFC) and Cancer SurvivorLink (SurvivorLink), address complementary gaps by enabling tailored survivorship care plan (SCP) generation, updating, storage, and sharing.
