DOI: 10.1016/j.jml.2021.104246
Abstract: Abstract Despite scarce empirical evidence, introducing new vocabulary in semantic categories has long been standard in second language teaching. We examined the effect of learning context on encoding, immediate recall and integration of new vocabulary… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0272263117000043
Abstract: Abstract Response time variability and its changes over time have been interpreted as indicative of levels of knowledge automatization. Predominantly, only declines in variability have been examined over the course of practice and growing second… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/09658211.2022.2142243
Abstract: ABSTRACT This study investigated the effect of overnight sleep on associative novel word learning and examined whether the effects of sleep on word learning are modulated by the provision of semantic information. Seventy-five healthy young… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/23273798.2025.2454001
Abstract: ABSTRACT Novel word acquisition is crucial for both first language acquisition and foreign language learning. Most previous studies of its neural bases were conducted via neuroimaging methods, which can reveal correlational but not causal links… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/tld.0000000000000271
Abstract: Language skills have long been posited to be a factor contributing to developmental stuttering. The current study aimed to evaluate whether novel word recognition, a critical skill for language development, differentiated children who stutter from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/desc.70087
Abstract: ABSTRACT Toddlers better retain novel object‐label mappings from taxonomic categories they have more knowledge of. Separately, words for concepts with more perceptual features are learned earlier than words for concepts with fewer perceptual features. Because… read more here.

DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_01670
Abstract: Abstract Previous studies evidenced transfer effects from professional music training to novel word learning. However, it is unclear whether such an advantage is driven by cascading, bottom–up effects from better auditory perception to semantic processing… read more here.
