Speech rhythms and their neural foundations

D Poeppel, MF Assaneo - Nature reviews neuroscience, 2020 - nature.com
The recognition of spoken language has typically been studied by focusing on either words
or their constituent elements (for example, low-level features or phonemes). More recently …

Rhythmic facilitation of sensory processing: A critical review

S Haegens, EZ Golumbic - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2018 - Elsevier
Here we review the role of brain oscillations in sensory processing. We examine the idea
that neural entrainment of intrinsic oscillations underlies the processing of rhythmic stimuli in …

Cortical tracking of hierarchical linguistic structures in connected speech

N Ding, L Melloni, H Zhang, X Tian, D Poeppel - Nature neuroscience, 2016 - nature.com
The most critical attribute of human language is its unbounded combinatorial nature: smaller
elements can be combined into larger structures on the basis of a grammatical system …

Perceptually relevant speech tracking in auditory and motor cortex reflects distinct linguistic features

A Keitel, J Gross, C Kayser - PLoS biology, 2018 - journals.plos.org
During online speech processing, our brain tracks the acoustic fluctuations in speech at
different timescales. Previous research has focused on generic timescales (for example …

Cortical entrainment to continuous speech: functional roles and interpretations

N Ding, JZ Simon - Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2014 - frontiersin.org
Auditory cortical activity is entrained to the temporal envelope of speech, which corresponds
to the syllabic rhythm of speech. Such entrained cortical activity can be measured from …

Brain-to-brain entrainment: EEG interbrain synchronization while speaking and listening

A Pérez, M Carreiras, JA Duñabeitia - Scientific reports, 2017 - nature.com
Electroencephalographic hyperscanning was used to investigate interbrain synchronization
patterns in dyads of participants interacting through speech. Results show that brain …

Neural entrainment to speech modulates speech intelligibility

L Riecke, E Formisano, B Sorger, D Başkent… - Current Biology, 2018 - cell.com
Speech is crucial for communication in everyday life. Speech-brain entrainment, the
alignment of neural activity to the slow temporal fluctuations (envelope) of acoustic speech …

Neural speech tracking in the theta and in the delta frequency band differentially encode clarity and comprehension of speech in noise

O Etard, T Reichenbach - Journal of Neuroscience, 2019 - Soc Neuroscience
Humans excel at understanding speech even in adverse conditions such as background
noise. Speech processing may be aided by cortical activity in the delta and theta frequency …

A predictive coding framework for rapid neural dynamics during sentence-level language comprehension

AG Lewis, M Bastiaansen - Cortex, 2015 - Elsevier
There is a growing literature investigating the relationship between oscillatory neural
dynamics measured using electroencephalography (EEG) and/or magnetoencephalography …
