Linguistic phrases are tracked in sentences even though there is no one-to-one acoustic
phrase marker in the physical signal. This phenomenon suggests an automatic tracking of …

Speech comprehension is severely compromised when several people talk at once, due to
limited perceptual and cognitive resources. In such circumstances, top-down attention …

For seventy years, auditory selective attention research has focused on studying the
cognitive mechanisms of prioritizing the processing a 'main'task-relevant stimulus, in the …

Human speech is a particularly relevant acoustic stimulus for our species, due to its role of
information transmission during communication. Speech is inherently a dynamic signal, and …

During listening, brain activity tracks the rhythmic structures of speech signals. Here, we
directly dissociated the contribution of neural envelope tracking in the processing of speech …

Humans can easily tune in to one talker in a multitalker environment while still picking up
bits of background speech; however, it remains unclear how we perceive speech that is …

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a non-invasive and painless recording of cerebral activity,
particularly well-suited for studying young infants, allowing the inspection of cerebral …

Selective attention modulates the neural tracking of speech in auditory cortical regions. It is
unclear whether this attentional modulation is dominated by enhanced target tracking, or …

In recent years, there has been growing interest and excitement over the newly discovered
cognitive capacities of the slee** brain, including its ability to form novel associations …

In speech perception, low-frequency cortical activity tracks hierarchical linguistic units (eg,
syllables, phrases, and sentences) on top of acoustic features (eg, speech envelope). Since …
