The results of a pseudoword production task suggest that rhyme complexity of the final syllable is a strong predictor of main stress position ... -
Good, bad and ugly word stress: fMRI evidence for foot structure driven processing of prosodic violations
(Elsevier, 2013)Using a stress violation paradigm, we investigated whether metrical feet constrain the way prosodic pat- terns are processed and evaluated. Processing of correctly versus incorrectly stressed words was associated with ... -
Neuro-cognitive foundations of prosodic word processing – evidence from fMRI
(BioMed Central / Springer Verlag (Germany), 2011)Background: To date, the neural correlates of phonological word stress processing are largely unknown. Methods: In the present study, we investigated the processing of word stress and vowel quality using an identity matching ... -
The direction of word stress processing in German: evidence from a working-memory paradigm
(Frontiers, 2014)There are contradicting assumptions and findings on the direction of word stress processing in German. To resolve this question, we asked participants to read tri-syllabic non-words and stress ambiguous words aloud. ... -
Where the mass counts: Common cortical activation for different kinds of non-singularity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press (MIT Press): STM Titles, 2012)Typically, plural nouns are morphosyntactically marked for the number feature, whereas mass nouns are morphosyntactically singular. However, both plural count nouns and mass nouns can be semantically interpreted as ... -
Latenzmessungen in der Diagnostik diskreter Benennstörungen: Eine praktikable Ergänzung zum Aachener Aphasie Test
(2015)Bei neurologischen PatientInnen häufig noch vorliegende diskrete Wortfindungsstörungen (oft in Form erhöhter Benennlatenzen bei letztlich korrekter Reaktion) können anhand verbreiteter Testverfahren nur unzureichend ... -
