to specify because phonological, syntactic and semantic information are all involved when …

In the past 30 years there has been a growing body of research using different methods
(behavioural, electrophysiological, neuropsychological, TMS and imaging studies) asking …

Language-related event-related potential (ERP) components such as the N400 have

Theoretical and empirical aspects of the neural bases of the mental lexicon and the mental
grammar in first and second language (L1 and L2) are discussed. It is argued that in L1, the …

The P600 component in Event Related Potential research has been hypothesised to be
associated with syntactic reanalysis processes. We, however, propose that the P600 is not …

In this study we examined the properties of the processes involved in the structural analysis
of sentences using event-related brain potential measures (ERP). Previous research had …

This study investigated the effects of combined semantic and syntactic violations in relation
to the effects of single semantic and single syntactic violations on language-related event …

In order to test recent claims about the structure of verbal working memory, two ERP
experiments with Dutch speaking participants were carried out. We compared the ERP …

Real-time language comprehension is a principal cognitive ability and thereby relates to
central properties of the human cognitive architecture. Yet how do the presumably universal …
