Ventral and dorsal aspects of the inferior frontal-occipital fasciculus support verbal semantic access and visually-guided behavioural control
The Inferior Frontal Occipital Fasciculus (IFOF) is a major anterior-to-posterior white matter pathway in the ventral human brain that connects...

How the intrinsic functional connectivity patterns of the semantic network support semantic processing
Semantic processing, a core of language comprehension, involves the activation of brain regions dispersed extensively across the frontal, temporal,...

Neurocognitive correlates of semantic memory navigation in Parkinson’s disease
Cognitive studies on Parkinson’s disease (PD) reveal abnormal semantic processing. Most research, however, fails to indicate which conceptual...

Longstanding Auditory Sensory and Semantic Differences in Preterm Born Children
More than 10% of births are preterm, and the long-term consequences on sensory and semantic processing of non-linguistic information remain poorly...

Semantic and syntactic processing of emojis in sentential intermediate positions
The current study investigated the neuro mechanisms of emoji processing as sentence predicate in written context. In the hybrid textuality which is...

Irregular word reading as a marker of semantic decline in Alzheimer’s disease: implications for premorbid intellectual ability measurement
BackgroundIrregular word reading has been used to estimate premorbid intelligence in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) dementia. However, reading models...

The role of the angular gyrus in semantic cognition: a synthesis of five functional neuroimaging studies
Semantic knowledge is central to human cognition. The angular gyrus (AG) is widely considered a key brain region for semantic cognition. However, the...

Proper and common names in the semantic system
Proper names are an important part of language and communication. They are thought to have a special status due to their neuropsychological and...

Semantic reconstruction of continuous language from non-invasive brain recordings
A brain–computer interface that decodes continuous language from non-invasive recordings would have many scientific and practical applications....
-
The organization of individually mapped structural and functional semantic networks in aging adults
Language function in the brain, once thought to be highly localized, is now appreciated as relying on a connected but distributed network. The...

Heterogeneity and overlap in the continuum of linguistic profile of logopenic and semantic variants of primary progressive aphasia: a Profile Analysis based on Multidimensional Scaling study
BackgroundPrimary progressive aphasia (PPA) diagnostic criteria underestimate the complex presentation of semantic (sv) and logopenic (lv) variants,...

Cumulative Genetic Score of DRD2 Polymorphisms Is Associated with Impulsivity and Masked Semantic Priming
Individual differences in the magnitude of semantic priming effects are associated with executive functions (EF). Striatal dopamine has been shown to...
-
Semantic feature activation takes time: longer SOA elicits earlier priming effects during reading
While most previous studies of “semantic” priming confound associative and semantic relations, here we use a simple co-occurrence-based approach to...

Electrophysiology of Semantic Processing in ASD
It is well known that individuals with ASD have abnormal semantic-pragmatic deficits. However, it is unclear at which step of semantic processing,...
-
Neural Underpinnings of Semantic Processing
The N400 component of the event-related potential (ERP) is the most widely used brain signal in research on semantic processing. It has been...

The angular gyrus serves as an interface between the non-lexical reading network and the semantic system: evidence from dynamic causal modeling
Understanding encoded language, such as written words, requires multiple cognitive processes that act in a parallel and interactive fashion. These...

Using concept typicality to explore semantic representation and control in healthy ageing
Successful use of conceptual knowledge entails the assembling of semantic representations and control processes to access the subsets of knowledge...

The Effects of Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation on Functional Connectivity Within Semantic and Hippocampal Networks in Mild Cognitive Impairment
Better treatments are needed to improve cognition and brain health in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD)....

The time-locked neurodynamics of semantic processing in autism spectrum disorder: an EEG study
Language processing is often an area of difficulty in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Semantic processing—the ability to add meaning to a stimulus—is...
-
A tale of two gradients: differences between the left and right hemispheres predict semantic cognition
Decomposition of whole-brain functional connectivity patterns reveals a principal gradient that captures the separation of sensorimotor cortex from...
