Hearing and seeing meaning in noise: Alpha, beta, and gamma oscillations predict gestural enhancement of degraded speech comprehension
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Human Brain Mapping"
DOI: 10.1002/hbm.23987
Abstract: During face‐to‐face communication, listeners integrate speech with gestures. The semantic information conveyed by iconic gestures (e.g., a drinking gesture) can aid speech comprehension in adverse listening conditions. In this magnetoencephalography (MEG) study, we investigated the… read more here.
