Neurobiology of Language explores the study of language, a field that has seen tremendous
progress in the last two decades. Key to this progress is the accelerating trend toward …

This study investigated semantic priming for literal (stinging-mosquito) and metaphoric
(stinging-insult) associates presented to either the left or right visual fields (RVF/LVF) across …

Previous laterality studies have implicated the right hemisphere in the processing of
metaphors, however it is not clear if this result is due to metaphoricity per se or another …

Theoretical models of text processing, such as the construction-integration framework, pose
fundamental questions about causal inference making that are not easily addressed by …

Joke comprehension deficits in patients with right hemisphere (RH) damage raise the
question of the role of the intact RH in understanding jokes. One suggestion is that semantic …

An event-related fMRI paradigm was used to investigate brain activity during the reading of
sentences containing either a lexically ambiguous word or an unambiguous control word …

The process of designing artifacts is a creative activity. It is proposed that, at the cognitive
level, one key to understanding design creativity is to understand the array of symbol …

To build up coherence between sentences (comprehend discourse), we must draw
inferences, ie activate and integrate information that is not actually stated. We used event …

A complete neurolinguistic model of language comprehension must include the
representational and processing components housed in both the left and right cerebral …

The paper describes a systematic approach for automatically introducing data and code
redundancy into an existing program written using a high-level language. The …
