Does lexical processing rely on a specialized semantic network in the brain, or does it draw
on more general semantic resources? The primary goal of this study was to compare …

Phonological and semantic processing was studied using high‐resolution event‐related
brain potentials (ERPs) during a sentence‐matching task to investigate the spatial …

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine cortical correlates of semantic memory
processes in the auditory stimulus modality. Methods: Event-related desynchronization …

Several previous functional imaging experiments have demonstrated that auditory
presentation of speech, relative to tones or scrambled speech, activate the superior temporal …

To clarify how different the processing of verbal information is from the processing of
meaningful non-verbal information, the present study characterized the developmental …

We describe, for the first time, the use of high-resolution event-related brain potentials
(hrERP) to identify the spatio-temporal characteristics of neural systems involved in …

Both the imagery literature and grounded models of language comprehension emphasize
the tight coupling of high-level cognitive processes, such as forming a mental image of …

Retrieval of word meaning from the semantic system and its integration with context are
often assumed to be shared by spoken and written words. How is modality-independent …

The aim of the present study was to dissociate the neural correlates of semantic and
phonological processes during word reading and picture naming. Previous studies have …

By using meaningful stimuli, multisensory research has recently started to investigate the
impact of stimulus content on crossmodal integration. Variations in this respect have often …
