Henderson, Lisa M.; Baseler, Heidi A.; Clarke, Paula J.; Watson, Sarah; Snowling, Margaret J. – Brain and Language, 2011
Using event-related potentials (ERPs), we investigated the N400 (an ERP component that occurs in response to meaningful stimuli) in children aged 8-10 years old and examined relationships between the N400 and individual differences in listening comprehension, word recognition and non-word decoding. Moreover, we tested the claim that the N400…

Kast, Monika; Bezzola, Ladina; Jancke, Lutz; Meyer, Martin – Brain and Language, 2011
The present functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was designed, in order to investigate the neural substrates involved in the audiovisual processing of disyllabic German words and pseudowords. Twelve dyslexic and 13 nondyslexic adults performed a lexical decision task while stimuli were presented unimodally (either aurally or…

Wile, Tammy L.; Borowsky, Ron – Brain and Language, 2004
The present research investigated the relationship between Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN) performance, letter-string reading measures of sight vocabulary (SV) and phonetic decoding (PD), and lexical decision. Criterion-based naming rates were obtained from three types of RAN tasks: digits, letters, and letter sounds. Latency measures were obtained…
