Camille L. Grasso, Johannes C. Ziegler, Jennifer T. Coull, and Marie Montant. PLOS ONE 17 (10): e0276273, 2022 — @HAL How do people grasp the abstract concept of time? It has been argued that abstract concepts, such as future and past , are grounded in sensorimotor experience. When responses to words that refer to the […]
Hippocampal Intracerebral Evoked Potentials as a Marker of Its Functionality in Drug-Resistant Epilepsy
Daniela de Andrade Morange, Virginie Laguitton, Romain Carron, Daniele Schön, Christian-George Bénar, Bernard Giusiano, Fabrice Bartolomei, and Agnès Trébuchon. Clinical Neurophysiology, 2022, 52 (4): 323–32 — @HAL Objectives: To assess hippocampal function during stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) investigations through the study of the medial temporal lobe event-related potential (ERP) MTL-P300. Methods: We recorded the MTL-P300 during a […]
Is There Evidence for a Noisy Computation Deficit in Developmental Dyslexia?
Yufei Tan, Valérie Chanoine, Eddy Cavalli, Jean-Luc Anton, and Johannes C. Ziegler. Frontiers in Human Neuroscience 16: 919465 — @HAL The noisy computation hypothesis of developmental dyslexia (DD) is particularly appealing because it can explain deficits across a variety of domains, such as temporal, auditory, phonological, visual and attentional processes. A key prediction is that […]
HIBOU: an eBook to improve Text Comprehension and Reading Fluency for Beginning Readers of French
Ludivine Javourey, Drevet, Stéphane Dufau, Johannes C. Ziegler, & Núria Gala Language Resources and Evaluation Conference, 2022 — @HAL In this paper, we present HIBOU, an eBook application initially developed for iOs, displaying adapted texts (i.e. simplified), and proposing text comprehension activities. The application has been used in six elementary schools in France to evaluate […]
Are you Smiling When I am Speaking?
Auriane Boudin, Roxane Bertrand, Magalie Ochs, Philippe Blache, & Stéphane Rauzy Language Resources and Evaluation Conference, 2022 — @HAL The aim of this study is to investigate conversational feedback that contains smiles and laughter. Firstly, we propose a statistical analysis of smiles and laughter used as generic and specific feedback in a corpus of French […]
Two-Year-Olds’ Eye Movements Reflect Confidence in Their Understanding of Words
Isabelle Dautriche, Louise Goupil, Kenny Smith, Hugh Rabagliati Psychological Science, 2022. — @HAL We studied the fundamental issue of whether children evaluate the reliability of their language interpretation, that is, their confidence in understanding words. In two experiments, 2-year-olds (Experiment 1: N = 50; Experiment 2: N = 60) saw two objects and heard one […]
Typing expertise in a large student population
Svetlana Pinet, Christelle Zielinski, F.-Xavier Alario, & Marieke Longcamp Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022, 7 (1), 77 — @HAL Typing has become a pervasive mode of language production worldwide, with keyboards fully integrated in a large part of many daily activities. The bulk of the literature on typing expertise concerns highly trained professional touch-typists, […]
Inter‐individual variability in dorsal stream dynamics during word production
Catherine Liégeois-Chauvel, Anne-Sophie Dubarry, Irene Wang, Patrick Chauvel, Jorge Gonzalez-Martinez, & F.‐Xavier Alario European Journal of Neuroscience, 2022, 56 (7), 5070-5089 — @HAL The current standard model of language production involves a sensorimotor dorsal stream connecting areas in the temporo-parietal junction with those in the inferior frontal gyrus and lateral premotor cortex. These regions have […]
Age effect in expert cognitive flexibility in Guinea baboons (Papio papio)
Julie Gullstrand, Nicolas Claidière, & Joel Fagot Behavioural Brain Research (2022), 434, 114043 — @HAL Cognitive flexibility in non-human primates is traditionally measured with the conceptual set shifting task (CSST). In our laboratory, Guinea baboons (N = 24) were continuously tested with a CSST task during approximately 10 years. Our task involved the presentation of […]
Probability matching is not the default decision making strategy in human and non-human primates
Carmen Saldana, Nicolas Claidière, Joël Fagot, & Kenny Smith Scientific Reports, 2022, 12, 13092 — @HAL Probability matching has long been taken as a prime example of irrational behaviour in human decision making; however, its nature and uniqueness in the animal world is still much debated. In this paper we report a set of four […]
