Speech in psychosis has long been ascribed as involving 'loosening of associations'. We pursued the aim to elucidate its underlying cognitive mechanisms by analysing picture descriptions from 94 subjects (29 healthy controls, 18 participants at clinical high risk, 29 with first-episode psychosis, and chronic schizophrenia), using five language models different computational architectures: FastText, which represents meaning non-contextually/statically; BERT, contextual sensitive grammar...
Infants exhibit remarkable language acquisition abilities, supported by highly plastic neural substrates that dynamically interact with early speech experiences. However, the developmental mechanisms of these and their specific role in remain incompletely understood. Here, we present NeoAudi Tract (NAT), a robust automated toolbox for extracting full set auditory tracts infants from birth to 24 months using $3$T diffusion MRI data. By characterizing microstructural changes tracts,...

We measured the alert distance (AD), flight-initiation (FID), buffer (BD), and fled (DF) of Himalayan marmots (Marmota himalayana) from four populations experiencing human disturbances same persistence but different intensities when subjected to varied stimuli (a running or walking man with without a leashed dog alone). analyzed effects on AD, FID, BD, DF each population relationship among illustrate escape strategy diversification studied for disturbed by stimuli. found that...
Background Aphasia following cerebro-vascular accidents has been a primary source of insight for models language in the brain. However, deviant patterns aphasia may reflect processing limitations and cognitive impairment more than per se. Aims We sought to obtain new evidence from spontaneous speech Broca’s (BA) intactness grammatical knowledge, operationalized as preservation basic hierarchical structure syntactic projections. Methods & procedures Speech obtained with AphasiaBank...
Disorganized and impoverished language is a key feature of schizophrenia (Sz), but whether which linguistic changes previously observed in Indo-European languages generalize to other remains unclear. Targeting Mandarin Chinese, we aimed profile aspects grammatical complexity that hypothesized would be reduced task verbalizing social events. 51 individuals with Sz 39 controls participated the animated triangles task, standardized measure theory mind (ToM), participants describe moving either...
Research has investigated how speakers make phonetic adaptations by adjusting their speech sounds to either converge or diverge from interlocutor’s. Less is known about the dynamic adaptive strategies non-native use improve intelligibility when interacting with native speakers, particularly change over course of spontaneous conversations. The current study examines in English words contrasting tense and lax vowels (e.g., sheep-ship) unscripted conversations between Japanese during an...
As online reviews become increasingly indispensable for consumers, they have attracted significant attention from both practitioners and researchers. It is a common belief that the persuasive effect of involves deliberative conscious process. Drawing on dual-process theories persuasion literature, we challenge this conventional wisdom, distinguish Type 2 processing (that requires deliberation) 1 occurs automatically), disentangle their relative impacts. With focus review elaborateness...
If language production is impaired, will gestures compensate? Evidence in favor of this prediction has often been argued to come from aphasia, but it remains contested. Here, we tested whether thought content not present speech due impairment manifested gestures, 20 people with dysfluent (Broca's) fluent (Wernicke's) and matched neurotypical controls.A new annotation scheme was created distinguishing types they co-occurred or dysfluent/absent were temporally aligned coproduced speech.Across...
