The fully updated eighth edition of Cognitive Psychology: A Student's Handbook provides
comprehensive yet accessible coverage of all the key areas in the field ranging from visual …

The N400 event-related brain potential is elicited by each word in a sentence and offers an
important window into the mechanisms of real-time language comprehension. Since the …

I will describe how orthographic processing acts as a central interface between visual and
linguistic processing during reading, and as such can be considered to be the 'mid-level …

An argument that the meaning of written or auditory linguistic signals is not derived from the
input but results from the brain's internal construction process. When we read a text or listen …

The ability to rapidly and systematically access knowledge stored in long‐term memory in
response to incoming sensory information—that is, to derive meaning from the world—lies at …

The N400 event-related component has been widely used to investigate the neural
mechanisms underlying real-time language comprehension. However, despite decades of …

Many theoretical accounts of prediction in language processing are based to a substantial
amount on experimental evidence from electrophysiological studies measuring N400 target …

We used a large-scale data-driven approach to investigate the role of word form in
accessing semantics. By using distributional semantic methods and taking advantage of an …

This study employed the N400 event-related potential (ERP) to investigate how observing
different types of gestures at learning affects the subsequent processing of L2 Mandarin …

Prediction of upcoming words is thought to be crucial for language comprehension. Here,
we are asking whether bilingualism entails changes to the electrophysiological substrates of …
