Blind Braille readers mislocate tactile stimuli

Description : In a previous experiment, we observed that blind Braille readers produce errors when asked to identify on which finger of one hand a light tactile stimulus had occurred. With the present study, we aimed to specify the characteristics of this perceptual error in blind and sighted participants. The ex...

Differential outcomes from magneto- and electroencephalography for the analysis of human cognition

Description : Theoretical considerations show that magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG) provide different information about ongoing human brain activity. The paper presents simultaneously measured MEG and EEG data showing that these measures may lead to different conclusions about cogniti...

Attentional influences on functional mapping of speech sounds in human auditory cortex

Description : Background: The speech signal contains both information about phonological features such as place of articulation and non-phonological features such as speaker identity. These are different aspects of the "what"-processing stream (speaker vs. speech content), and here we show that they can be furthe...

Short communication : neuromagnetic evidence for early semantic access in word recognition

Description : Magnetic brain responses recorded in the human magnetoencephalogram (MEG) distinguished between words with different semantics but carefully matched for frequency and length. Multiple recordings from a single subject showed that 100 ms following stimulus onset, significantly stronger neuromagnetic r...

Altered hemispheric asymmetry of auditory P100m in dyslexia

Description : In various studies, deviances of hemispheric laterality in the organization of the perisylvian region in dyslexia have been suggested. Although associated with impaired language functioning, the clinical significance of atypical cerebral lateralization remains unclear. The present study examined int...

New treatments in neurorehabiliation founded on basic research

Description : Recent discoveries about how the central nervous system responds to injury and how patients reacquire lost behaviours by training have yielded promising new therapies for neurorehabilitation. Until recently, this field had been largely static, but the current melding of basic behavioural science wit...

Altered hemispheric asymmetry of auditory N100m in adults with developmental dyslexia

Description : The current study aimed at determining whether the deviance of hemispheric asymmetry in the auditory cortex of children with dyslexia is also evident in dyslexic adults. Ten adult dyslexic subjects and 10 normally literate controls were presented with the syllable [ba:] while event-related brain act...
