delighted to share my review article, out now in Trends in Cognitive Sciences! i have been thinking a lot about dynamics lately. this article outlines three key principles - persistence, parallelism, and time-stamped encoding - that support human speech comprehension 🧠✨🌀

early-career academics, if you don't have a website, make yourself one. yes it's annoying but just do it it can be plain text on a white background, or google sites, or even a free Wix one with ads. nobody cares we just need to be able to look you up, quickly, bc there's like 100 other apps here

🧠🤟 How is meaning organized in ASL? "It's a small world of signs: Semantic network structure in American Sign Language based on free associations" We asked deaf ASL signers to give three meaning-related signs for each sign in ASL-LEX that immediately came to mind.

To make sense of speech, listeners must segment sound streams into pieces. Across languages, people do so based more on consonants than vowels. A new @science.org study investigates the phenomenon via EEG recording in humans & dogs, finding that dogs also show consonant bias in word segmentation.🗣️🐶🧪

Neural evidence that dogs segment the speech they hear with a humanlike consonant bias

Across many human languages, consonants carry more lexical information than vowels. During speech segmentation, humans, unlike nonhuman primates, rely more on consonant than vowel patterns, despite vo...

Is “dokstine” a word? What about “plungable”? 🤔 These kinds of decisions can reveal a lot about how we read and understand words. We just published the English Pseudoword Lexicon Project (EPLeP), a new open database on this involving 1,416 participants, ~13,500 non-lexical items and ~4,400 words. 🧵
