A key feature of speech is the quasi-regular rhythmic information contained in its slow
amplitude modulations. In this article we review the information conveyed by speech rhythm …

Theoretical advances in language research and the availability of increasingly high-
resolution experimental techniques in the cognitive neurosciences are profoundly changing …

A growing body of research suggests that intrinsic neuronal slow (< 10 Hz) oscillations in
auditory cortex appear to track incoming speech and other spectro-temporally complex …

Recent studies establish that cortical oscillations track naturalistic speech in a remarkably
faithful way. Here, we test whether such neural activity, particularly low-frequency (< 8 Hz; …

Cognitive Neuroscience of Language provides an up-to-date, wide-ranging, and
pedagogically practical survey of the most important developments in this exciting field. It …

Reflecting recent changes in the way cognition and the brain are studied, this thoroughly
updated fourth edition of this bestselling textbook provides a comprehensive and student …

Neural oscillations track linguistic information during speech comprehension (Ding et al.,
2016; Keitel et al., 2018), and are known to be modulated by acoustic landmarks and …

Highlights•The anatomic organization for language is less lateralized than
assumed.•Speech and language processing are mediated by segregated concurrent …

The principles underlying functional asymmetries in cortex remain debated. For example, it
is accepted that speech is processed bilaterally in auditory cortex, but a left hemisphere …

Neuronal oscillations are ubiquitous in the brain and contribute to perception and attention.
However, most associated evidence derives from post hoc correlations between brain …
