The “Perceptual Wedge Hypothesis” as the basis for bilingual babies' phonetic processing advantage: New insights from fNIRS brain imaging
LA Petitto, MS Berens, I Kovelman, MH Dubins… - Brain and language, 2012 - Elsevier
In a neuroimaging study focusing on young bilinguals, we explored the brains of bilingual
and monolingual babies across two age groups (younger 4–6months, older 10–12months) …

Categorical speech representation in human superior temporal gyrus
Speech perception requires the rapid and effortless extraction of meaningful phonetic
information from a highly variable acoustic signal. A powerful example of this phenomenon …

Perception of speech reflects optimal use of probabilistic speech cues
Listeners are exquisitely sensitive to fine-grained acoustic detail within phonetic categories
for sounds and words. Here we show that this sensitivity is optimal given the probabilistic …

The influence of categories on perception: explaining the perceptual magnet effect as optimal statistical inference.
A variety of studies have demonstrated that organizing stimuli into categories can affect the
way the stimuli are perceived. We explore the influence of categories on perception through …

Localization of sublexical speech perception components
PE Turkeltaub, HB Coslett - Brain and language, 2010 - Elsevier
Models of speech perception are in general agreement with respect to the major cortical
regions involved, but lack precision with regard to localization and lateralization of …

The cortical organization of lexical knowledge: a dual lexicon model of spoken language processing
DW Gow Jr - Brain and language, 2012 - Elsevier
Current accounts of spoken language assume the existence of a lexicon where wordforms
are stored and interact during spoken language perception, understanding and production …

Neural correlates of rapid auditory processing are disrupted in children with developmental dyslexia and ameliorated with training: an fMRI study
Purpose: Developmental dyslexia, characterized by unexpected difficulty in reading, may
involve a fundamental deficit in processing rapid acoustic stimuli. Using functional magnetic …
