DOI: 10.1016/j.jcomdis.2022.106195
Abstract: PURPOSE Language comprehension, or the ability to understand spoken language, is critical to a variety of child outcomes. Effective early intervention relies on valid, reliable language comprehension assessment. The purpose of this study was to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.116858
Abstract: The neural representation of language comprehension has been examined in several meta-analyses of fMRI studies with human adults. To complement this work from a developmental perspective, we conducted a meta-analysis of fMRI studies of auditory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.schres.2018.08.019
Abstract: Formal thought disorder (FTD) in schizophrenia is a prevalent symptom that has a significant impact on patients but low remediation options. This is largely due to a still unclear aetiology, where both neurocognitive and language… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhad116
Abstract: Existing studies demonstrate that comprehenders can predict semantic information during language comprehension. Most evidence comes from a highly constraining context, in which a specific word is likely to be predicted. One question that has been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/wnr.0000000000001393
Abstract: Functional neuroimaging studies evaluating sex differences in language processing have been previously reported. However, it remains largely unclear whether there are structural bases for language comprehension and whether these are partially affected by sexual dimorphism… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cdev.12880
Abstract: This study examined change in early language comprehension from 15 to 54 months for fifth-grade typical readers (n = 35), poor decoders (n = 11), or poor comprehenders (n = 16) from a nationally representative study of early child-care experiences. Changing measures… read more here.

Referential vs. Non-referential World-Language Relations: How Do They Modulate Language Comprehension in 4 to 5-Year-Olds, Younger, and Older Adults?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Frontiers in Psychology"
DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2020.542091
Abstract: Age has been shown to influence language comprehension, with delays, for instance, in older adults' expectations about upcoming information. We examined to what extent expectations about upcoming event information (who-does-what-to-whom) change across the lifespan (in… read more here.
