Neural correlates of intonation and lexical tone in tonal and non‐tonal language speakers

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Human Brain Mapping"

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.24916

Abstract: Intonation, the modulation of pitch in speech, is a crucial aspect of language that is processed in right‐hemispheric regions, beyond the classical left‐hemispheric language system. Whether or not this notion generalises across languages remains, however,… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Studies in Second Language Acquisition"

DOI: 10.1017/s0272263125101411

Abstract: Statistical regularities can be acquired from usage. To examine language speakers’ statistical metacognition about multiword expressions (MWEs), we collected ratings for frequency, dispersion, and directional association strength of English binomials from L1, advanced and intermediate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/10489223.2024.2383574

Abstract: ABSTRACT Many studies report that the computation of scalar inferences, such as the inference from ‘some’ to ‘not all’, is cognitively costly. However, a number of studies on scalar inferences in L2 suggest the opposite… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/14790718.2024.2398598

Abstract: ABSTRACT This paper explores space in relation to the (il)legitimacy of migrants as second language learners and speakers. Migrants learn the host country’s language(s) in multiple settings, both in language classrooms and beyond in various… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0263724

Abstract: Upon hearing the phrase Some cats meow, a listener might pragmatically infer that ‘Some but not all cats meow’. This is known as a scalar implicature and it often arises when a speaker produces a… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Applied Linguistics Review"

DOI: 10.1515/applirev-2019-0010

Abstract: Abstract This study examined whether an interlocutor’s attitudinal bias affects second language (L2) speakers’ recall of narratives and their responses to corrective feedback (recasts) and whether the role of attitudinal bias depends on individual differences… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Frontiers in Human Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2024.1364803

Abstract: Human speech production is strongly influenced by the auditory feedback it generates. Auditory feedback-what we hear when we speak-enables us to learn and maintain speaking skills and to rapidly correct errors in our speech. Over… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Frontiers in Psychology"

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2018.01982

Abstract: Speech variability facilitates non-tonal language speakers’ lexical tone learning. However, it remains unknown whether tonal language speakers can also benefit from speech variability while learning second language (L2) lexical tones. Researchers also reported that the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2024.1463063

Abstract: Previous studies on gestures and personality suggest an ambiguous picture of the effects of the various personality dimensions on the different types of speech-gestures and adaptors. In foreign language learning an additional variable to take… read more here.
