Although the hippocampus plays a crucial role in encoding and retrieval of contextually mediated episodic memories, considerable controversy surrounds the role of the …
The entrainment of slow rhythmic auditory cortical activity to the temporal regularities in speech is considered to be a central mechanism underlying auditory perception. Previous …
Working Memory (WM) requires maintenance of task-relevant information and suppression of task-irrelevant/distracting information. Alpha and theta oscillations have been extensively …
Electrocortical activity, typically used to track the effects of cognitive reappraisal on the processing of emotional stimuli, has not been used to index the prefrontal-cortex-mediated …
We analyzed intracranial brain activity recorded from human participants during the performance of a working-memory task. We show that 6–13 Hz activity exhibits consistent …

Successful working-memory retrieval requires that items be retained as distinct units. At the neural level, it has been shown that theta-band oscillatory power increases with the number …
Are the information processing steps that support short-term sensory memory common to all the senses? Systematic, psychophysical comparison requires identical experimental …
Learning disorders (LDs) are diagnosed in children whose academic skills of reading, writing or mathematics are impaired and lagging according to their age, schooling and …
Speech scientists have long proposed that formant exaggeration in infant‐directed speech plays an important role in language acquisition. This event‐related potential (ERP) study …
