Semantic cognition infringes on all aspects of life, and large swathes of the cortex respond to
semantic processing. A key component of this is semantic control, which guides retrieval …

Semantic cognition, the basis for our understanding of the world, is supported by both the
storage of semantic representations and the ability to flexibly retrieve them–semantic control …

Semantic Aphasia (SA) patients have difficulty accessing semantic knowledge in both verbal
and non-verbal tasks appropriately for the current context. Automatically activated semantic …

Research suggests that semantic memory deficits can occur in at least three ways. Patients
can (1) show amodal degradation of concepts within the semantic store itself, such as in …

Everyday situations are conceptually rich, but not all of this knowledge is relevant at a given
time. At the heart of adaptive cognition is flexibility, which allows us to focus on particular …

Background The ability to efficiently select specific aspects of our semantic representations
that are relevant for current goals or the context is supported by semantic control processes …

Theories of semantic memory based on neuropsychological findings have posited a
distinction between stored semantic representations and the mechanisms used to access …

Research suggests that semantic memory deficits can occur in at least three ways. Patients
can (1) show amodal degradation of concepts within the semantic store itself, such as in …

Semantic cognition—semantically driven verbal and nonverbal behavior—is composed of at
least two interactive principal components: conceptual representations and executive control …

Visuo-spatial context and emotional valence are powerful cues to episodic retrieval, but the
contribution of these inputs to semantic cognition has not been widely investigated. We …
