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 …

Memory is fleeting. To avoid information loss, humans need to recode verbal stimuli into
chunks of limited duration, each containing multiple words. Chunk duration may also be …

Test anxiety (TA), a recognized form of social anxiety, is the most prominent cause of anxiety
among students and, if left unmanaged, can escalate to psychiatric disorders. TA profoundly …

Language comprehension involves the grou** of words into larger multiword chunks. This
is required to recode information into sparser representations to mitigate memory limitations …

Background/Objectives: The Implicit Prosody Hypothesis (IPH) posits that individuals
generate internal prosodic representations during silent reading, mirroring those produced …

The map** problem, which seeks to establish correspondences between linguistic
phenomena and their underlying neural mechanisms, has emerged as a significant …

In this thesis, I examined the influence of task and context on the semantic processing of
single words in isolation and in a sentence context. In one study, I considered task effects on …

Recent advances in cognitive neuroscience have expanded the tools available to study
language processing beyond traditional event-related potentials (ERPs), to methods like the …

在语言表型与神经机制之间寻找对应关系, 即所谓的映射问题(the map** problem),
是当前研究的一大热点. 其中, 句法解析的神经机制尤具挑战性, 这涉及到如何在神经活动中识别 …
