Language processing is a trait of human species. The knowledge about its neurobiological
basis has been increased considerably over the past decades. Different brain regions in the …

This paper describes recommended methods for the use of event-related brain potentials
(ERPs) in clinical research and reviews applications to a variety of psychiatric and …

A comprehensive account of the neurobiological basis of language, arguing that species-
specific brain differences may be at the root of the human capacity for language. Language …

Measuring event-related potentials (ERPs) has been fundamental to our understanding of
how language is encoded in the brain. One particular ERP response, the N400 response …

Psycholinguistics–the field of science that examines the mental processes and knowledge
structures involved in the acquisition, comprehension, and production of language–had a …

Cognitive Neuroscience of Language provides an up-to-date, wide-ranging, and
pedagogically practical survey of the most important developments in this exciting field. It …

Theoretical and empirical aspects of the neural bases of the mental lexicon and the mental
grammar in first and second language (L1 and L2) are discussed. It is argued that in L1, the …

In 1980, the N400 event-related potential was described in association with semantic
anomalies within sentences. When, in 1992, a second waveform, the P600, was reported in …

An event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) paradigm was used to
specify those brain areas supporting the processing of sentence-level semantic and …

In the domain of written sentence comprehension, the computation of agreement
dependencies is generally considered as a form-driven processing routine whose domain is …
