Facilitation and interference in naming: A consequence of the same learning process?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Cognition"
DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2017.04.012
Abstract: Our success with naming depends on what we have named previously, a phenomenon thought to reflect learning processes. Repeatedly producing the same name facilitates language production (i.e., repetition priming), whereas producing semantically related names hinders… read more here.

The paca that roared: Immediate cumulative semantic interference among newly acquired words
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Cognition"
DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2018.02.014
Abstract: With 40,000 words in the average vocabulary, how can speakers find the specific words that they want so quickly and easily? Cumulative semantic interference in language production provides a clue: when naming a large series… read more here.

Modeling the distributional dynamics of attention and semantic interference in word production
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Cognition"
DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2021.104636
Abstract: In recent years, it has become clear that attention plays an important role in spoken word production. Some of this evidence comes from distributional analyses of reaction time (RT) in regular picture naming and picture-word… read more here.

Vulnerability to semantic and phonological interference in normal aging and amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI).
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Neuropsychology"
DOI: 10.1037/neu0000945
Abstract: OBJECTIVE To determine whether the increased vulnerability to semantic interference previously observed in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) is specifically associated with semantic material or if it also affects other types of material, suggesting generalized… read more here.

Semantic interference and facilitation in picture naming: The effects of type of impairment and compensatory strategies

DOI: 10.1080/02643294.2023.2189004
Abstract: ABSTRACT We assessed effects of semantic interference in people with aphasia (PWA). Two naming tasks (continuous naming and cyclic blocking) were contrasted with tasks which required suppression of competitors but minimized lexical access (probe task)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/09658211.2022.2154366
Abstract: ABSTRACT This study compares semantic and phonological interference vulnerability across the full range of learning processes. Method: 43 controls aged 61–88 underwent a neuropsychological examination, French adaptation of the LASSI-L, and an experimental phonological test,… read more here.

Semantic Interference Test: Evidence for Culture and Education Fairness from an Ethnically Diverse Sample in the USA
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology"
DOI: 10.1093/arclin/acy037
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Tests of cognitive abilities are particularly susceptible to culture-based bias because these abilities are culturally bound. The specific purpose of this study was to examine the Semantic Interference Test, a clinical neuropsychological test, for… read more here.

The left pars triangularis lesions impair semantic interference resolution regardless of competitor modality.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhaf215
Abstract: When we speak, selecting the right word takes longer whenever its semantic associates become active simultaneously. Although such semantic interference (SI) activates the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG), its lesions do not systematically increase SI… read more here.

Semantic Context Effects in Picture and Sound Naming: Evidence from Event-related Potentials and Pupillometric Data
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_02255
Abstract: Abstract When a picture is repeatedly named in the context of semantically related pictures (homogeneous context), responses are slower than when the picture is repeatedly named in the context of unrelated pictures (heterogeneous context). This… read more here.

Semantic interference is not modality specific: Evidence from sound naming with distractor pictures
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology"
DOI: 10.1177/1747021820943130
Abstract: In three experiments, participants named environmental sounds (e.g., the bleating of a sheep by producing the word “sheep”) in the presence of distractor pictures. In Experiment 1, we observed faster responses in sound naming with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/17470218221137007
Abstract: Semantic context effects are well established using both words and pictures as stimuli. One such effect, semantic interference, is observed in naming latencies when a categorically related distractor word or picture is presented together with… read more here.
