Sequential processing of lexical, grammatical, and phonological information within Broca's area.

14 Oct 2009 Words, grammar, and phonology are linguistically distinct, yet their neural substrates are difficult to distinguish in macroscopic brain regions. We investigated whether they can be separated in time and space at the circuit level using intracranial ... Read more...

Primed picture naming within and across languages: an ERP investigation.

30 Aug 2009 In two experiments, while event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded, participants named picture targets that were preceded by masked word primes that corresponded either to the name of the picture target or to an unrelated picture name. ... Read more...

Auditory context effects in picture naming investigated with event-related fMRI.

30 Aug 2009 Naming an object entails a number of processing stages, including retrieval of a target lexical concept and encoding of its phonological word form. We investigated these stages using the picture-word interference task in an fMRI experiment. ... Read more...
