Background Quantitative neural models of speech acquisition and speech processing are
rare. Methods In this paper, we describe a neural model for simulating speech acquisition …

We report three experiments examining the role that language proficiency plays in the
production of false memory. We constructed Deese-Roediger-McDermott paradigm lists …

The study examined the vocabulary growth trajectory and the relative contributions of three
facets of morphological awareness (compounding, homograph, and radical awareness) in …

The Future of the Artificial Mind is about the social and technological challenges posed by
the new wave of artificial intelligence, both from a technical and a cognitive perspective …

the production of false memory. We constructed Deese–Roediger–McDermott lists using …

Purpose Phonotactic probability or neighborhood density has predominately been defined
through the use of gross distinctions (ie, low vs. high). In the current studies, the authors …
