Neurobiological systems for lexical representation and analysis in English.
Current research suggests that language comprehension engages two joint but functionally distinguishable neurobiological processes: a distributed bilateral system, which supports general perceptual and interpretative processes...

Optimally efficient neural systems for processing spoken language.
Jie Zhuang, Lorraine K Tyler, Billi Randall, Emmanuel A Stamatakis, William D Marslen-Wilson
Dec 16, 2020
Cognitive models claim that spoken words are recognized by an optimally efficient sequential analysis process. Evidence for this is the finding that nonwords are recognized as soon as they deviate from all real words...

Conserved Sequence Processing in Primate Frontal Cortex.
An important aspect of animal perception and cognition is learning to recognize relationships between environmental events that predict others in time, a form of relational knowledge that can be assessed using sequence-learning...
Neural dynamics of inflectional and derivational processing in spoken word comprehension
Rapid and automatic processing of grammatical complexity is argued to take place during speech comprehension, engaging a left-lateralized fronto-temporal language network. Here we address how neural activity in these regions is...
Cross-linguistic parallels in processing derivational morphology
Neuroimaging evidence in English suggests that the neurocognitive processing of derivationally complex words primarily reflects their properties as whole forms. The current experiment provides a cross-linguistic examination of...
Morphological structure in the Arabic mental lexicon
The Arabic language is acquired by its native speakers both as a regional spoken Arabic dialect, acquired in early childhood as a first language, and as the more formal variety known as Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), typically...

Structure, form, and meaning in the mental lexicon
Does the organization of the mental lexicon reflect the combination of abstract underlying morphemic units or the concatenation of word-level phonological units? We address these fundamental issues in Arabic, a Semitic language...
Auditory artificial grammar learning in macaque and marmoset monkeys.
Benjamin Wilson, Heather Slater, Yukiko Kikuchi, Alice E Milne, William D Marslen-Wilson, Kenny Smith, Christopher I Petkov
Mar 27, 2018
Artificial grammars (AG) are designed to emulate aspects of the structure of language, and AG learning (AGL) paradigms can be used to study the extent of nonhuman animals' structure-learning capabilities. However, different AG...

William Franklin Mitchell
Jan 01, 0001
In his February 24, 2004 interview with Georgia Williamson, William Franklin Mitchell describes life as a volunteer chaplain for the army during WWII. Specifically, Mitchell shares the reason why he joined the service and what...

William Ledford
Jan 01, 0001
In his November 30, 1980 interview with his daughter Anne Ledford, William Ledford remembers his service in the Army during WWII. In particular, Ledford details his basic training and journey through Iceland, England, and...

Preserving syntactic processing across the adult life span
Lorraine K Tyler, Meredith A Shafto, Billi Randall, Paul Wright, William D Marslen-Wilson, Emmanuel A Stamatakis
Dec 16, 2020
Although widespread neural atrophy is an inevitable consequence of normal aging, not all cognitive abilities decline as we age. For example, spoken language comprehension tends to be preserved, despite atrophy in neural regions...

Entrainment to the CIECAM02 and CIELAB colour appearance models in the human cortex.
Andrew Thwaites, Cai Wingfield, Eric Wieser, Andrew Soltan, William D Marslen-Wilson, Ian Nimmo-Smith
Apr 05, 2018
In human visual processing, information from the visual field passes through numerous transformations before perceptual attributes such as colour are derived. The sequence of transforms involved in constructing perceptions of...
Balancing Prediction and Sensory Input in Speech Comprehension
Anastasia Klimovich-Gray, Lorraine K Tyler, Billi Randall, Ece Kocagoncu, Barry Devereux, William D Marslen-Wilson
Dec 11, 2018
Spoken word recognition in context is remarkably fast and accurate, with recognition times of ∼200 ms, typically well before the end of the word. The neurocomputational mechanisms underlying these contextual effects are still...

Reorganization of syntactic processing following left-hemisphere brain damage
Lorraine K Tyler, Paul Wright, Billi Randall, William D Marslen-Wilson, Emmanuel A Stamatakis
Dec 16, 2020
The extent to which the human brain shows evidence of functional plasticity across the lifespan has been addressed in the context of pathological brain changes and, more recently, of the changes that take place during healthy...
