Temporal order processing of syllables in the left parietal lobe.

5 Oct 2009 Speech processing requires the temporal parsing of syllable order. Individuals suffering from posterior left hemisphere brain injury often exhibit temporal processing deficits as well as language deficits. Although the right posterior inferior ... Read more...

Recognition of facial, auditory, and bodily emotions in older adults.

3 Oct 2009 Understanding older adults' social functioning difficulties requires insight into their recognition of emotion processing in voices and bodies, not just faces, the focus of most prior research. We examined 60 young and 61 older adults' recognition ... Read more...

Dynamics of activation of semantically similar concepts during spoken word recognition.

29 Sep 2009 Semantic similarity effects provide critical insight into the organization of semantic knowledge and the nature of semantic processing. In the present study, we examined the dynamics of semantic similarity effects by using the visual world ... Read more...
