Cognitive network science: A review of research on cognition through the lens of network representations, processes, and dynamics
Network science provides a set of quantitative methods to investigate complex systems,
including human cognition. Although cognitive theories in different domains are strongly …

New perspectives on the aging lexicon
The field of cognitive aging has seen considerable advances in describing the linguistic and
semantic changes that happen during the adult life span to uncover the structure of the …

[HTML][HTML] Quantifying flexibility in thought: The resiliency of semantic networks differs across the lifespan
Older adults tend to have a broader vocabulary compared to younger adults–indicating a
richer storage of semantic knowledge–but their retrieval abilities decline with age. Recent …

Age differences in semantic network structure: Acquiring knowledge shapes semantic memory.
Computational research suggests that semantic memory, operationalized as semantic
memory networks, undergoes age-related changes. Previous work suggests that concepts in …

Is the mind a network? Maps, vehicles, and skyhooks in cognitive network science
Cognitive researchers often carve cognition up into structures and processes. Cognitive
processes operate on structures, like vehicles driving over a map. Language alongside …

Quantifying the structure of free association networks across the life span.
We investigate how the mental lexicon changes over the life span using free association
data from over 8,000 individuals, ranging from 10 to 84 years of age, with more than 400 cue …

Large-scale network representations of semantics in the mental lexicon
The mental lexicon contains the knowledge about words acquired over a lifetime. Acentral
question is how this knowledge is structured and changes over time. Here wepropose to …

Structural differences in the semantic networks of younger and older adults
Cognitive science invokes semantic networks to explain diverse phenomena, from memory
retrieval to creativity. Research in these areas often assumes a single underlying semantic …

The nature of lexical associations in a foreign language: valence, arousal and concreteness
C Planchuelo, JA Hinojosa… - … : Language and Cognition, 2024 - cambridge.org
Recent studies suggest that similarity in emotional features and concreteness are critical
cues underlying word association in native speakers. However, the lexical organization of a …

Age‐specific effects of lexical–semantic networks on word production
G Krethlow, R Fargier, M Laganaro - Cognitive Science, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
The lexical–semantic organization of the mental lexicon is bound to change across the
lifespan. Nevertheless, the effects of lexical–semantic factors on word processing are …
