1. 1. Affective language processing. Modulations of event-related potentials amplitude by induced mood in a valence judgment task

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Allmän språkvetenskap; Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Språk och språkvetenskap

   Author : Ekaterina Kopaeva; [2023]
   Keywords : affective processing; emotion; ERP; lexico-semantic processing; mood; valence; Languages and Literatures;

   Abstract : Emotional vocabulary enjoys a processing advantage, with the emotional salience of a word detected at 200 ms post-presentation or earlier, signalling selective attention to its affective properties. An individual’s affective state also impacts attention and, by extension, affects processing. READ MORE

3. 2. Word-form recognition in 6-month-olds? Using event-related potentials to study the influence of infant-directed speech

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik

   Author : Bente Sand Aronsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Word-form recognition; event-related potentials; infant-directed speech; language acquisition; Igenkänning av ordformer; event-relaterade potentialer; barnriktat tal; språkinlärning;

   Abstract : By 4.5 months infants listen longer to their names compared to matched foils, which is the earliest empirically demonstrated sign of word-form recognition. This ability develops gradually in the first year of life and becomes increasingly advanced. READ MORE

4. 3. Neurotactile Integration

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Kalle Svensson; Julius Cewers; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The field of neural representation of sensory integration is an advanced topic with complex processes. The mechanisms of the brain are far from fully understood and are in need of further development to be implemented in clinical usages such as neuroprosthetics. READ MORE

5. 4. The role of word accents in semantic processing in South Swedish

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Språk och språkvetenskap; Lunds universitet/Fonetik

   Author : Jinhee Kwon; [2023]
   Keywords : Word accents; spoken word recognition; prediction; ERP; N400; Languages and Literatures;

   Abstract : Prosodic cues can aid speech processing by adding semantic information in lexical tones or functional information in intonational tones. Swedish word accents are considered to have stronger grammatical functions than semantic roles, although they are shaped by both lexical and intonational information structure. READ MORE

6. 5. ERP and MEG Correlates of Visual Consciousness : An Update

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Jona Förster; [2019]
   Keywords : Neural correlates of consciousness; Event-related potentials; Event-related fields; Visual awareness negativity; Late positivity; Global Neuronal Workspace theory; Recurrent Processing theory;

   Abstract : Two decades of event-related potential (ERP) research have established that the most consistent correlates of the onset of visual consciousness are the early visual awareness negativity (VAN), a negative component in the N2 time range over posterior electrode sites, and the late positivity (LP), a positive component in the P3 time range over fronto-parietal electrode sites. A review by Koivisto & Revonsuo (2010) had looked at 39 studies and concluded that the VAN is the earliest and most reliable correlate of visual phenomenal consciousness, whereas the LP probably reflects later processes associated with reflective/access consciousness.
