We’re recruiting a new PhD student (full scholarship, tuition fee waiver) for our project investigating systematic form meaning mappings in natural language using fMRI and MEG. Candidates should have a masters degree with relevant training and experience. Email me for details!

"Marslen-Wilson refers to the “speech shadowing” task as a task that assesses the processes involved in speech perception/word recognition, not speech production... there is a long, clear, and consistent history of it being a task that assesses spoken word recognition, not speech production."

17 page review! Mostly a diatribe against collecting behavioural response data online for replication purposes. Oh, and word shadowing/repetition is not a spoken production task…
