Steinbrink, Claudia; Groth, Katarina; Lachmann, Thomas; Riecker, Axel – Brain and Language, 2012
This fMRI study investigated phonological vs. auditory temporal processing in developmental dyslexia by means of a German vowel length discrimination paradigm (Groth, Lachmann, Riecker, Muthmann, & Steinbrink, 2011). Behavioral and fMRI data were collected from dyslexics and controls while performing same-different judgments of vowel duration in…

Rinker, Tanja; Alku, Paavo; Brosch, Sibylle; Kiefer, Markus – Brain and Language, 2010
The development of native-like memory traces for foreign phonemes can be measured by using the Mismatch Negativity (MMN), a component of the auditory event-related potential. Previous studies have shown that the MMN is sensitive to changes in neural organization depending on language experience. Here we measured the MMN response in 5-6 year-old…

Liotti, Mario; Ingham, Janis C.; Takai, Osamu; Paskos, Delia Kothmann; Perez, Ricardo; Ingham, Roger J. – Brain and Language, 2010
High-density ERPs were recorded in eight adults with persistent developmental stuttering (PERS) and eight matched normally fluent (CONT) control volunteers while participants either repeatedly uttered the vowel "ah" or listened to their own previously recorded vocalizations. The fronto-central N1 auditory wave was reduced in response to spoken…
