Abstract Recent studies indicate that the human brain attends to and uses grammatical gender cues during sentence comprehension. Here, we examine nature time course of effect on word-by-word reading. Event related potentials were recorded an article noun, while native Spanish speakers read medium high-constraint sentences for The noun either fit meaning or not, matched preceding in not; addition, was expected unexpected based prior context. Semantically anomalous nouns elicited N400. Gender...
Why is it more difficult to comprehend a 2nd (L2) than 1st language (L1)? In the present article we investigate whether difficulties during L2 sentence comprehension come from differences in way L1 and speakers anticipate upcoming words. We recorded brain activity (event-related potentials) of Spanish monolinguals, French-Spanish late bilinguals, Spanish-Catalan early bilinguals while reading sentences Spanish. manipulated ending highly constrained so that critical noun was either expected...
Standard neurocognitive models of language processing have tended to obviate the need for incorporating emotion processes, while affective neuroscience theories typically been concerned with way in which people communicate their emotions, and often simply not addressed linguistic issues. Here, we summarise evidence from temporal spatial brain imaging studies that investigated effects on lexical, semantic morphosyntactic aspects during comprehension single words sentences. The reviewed...

This event-related potential (ERP) study explored the behaviour of N400 and post-N400 frontal positivities (pN400FP) during processing emotionally biased unbiased sentences that randomly led to highly expected or unexpected word outcomes. Unexpected outcomes (as determined by sentence completion written tests) elicited significantly larger pN400FP responses than did Emotionally neutral triggered a significant expectancy effect across all scalp locations, including sites, whereas localized...
In our target article (Hinojosa et al., 2019. Affective neurolinguistics: Towards a framework for reconciling language and emotion. Language, Cognition Neuroscience, 1–27. https://doi.org/10.1080/23273798.2019.1620957), we reviewed neuroimaging studies that examined the effects of emotional content on several language-related processes provided aimed to account representation lexical features in brain. The commentaries call attention challenges investigations concerned with neurobiological...
Despite gender is a salient feature in face recognition, the question of whether stereotyping modulates processing remains unexplored. Event-related potentials from 40 participants (20 female) was recorded as male and female faces matched or mismatched previous gender-stereotyped statements were compared with those elicited by preceded gender-unbiased statements. We conducted linear mixed-effects models to account for possible random effects both strength bias. The amplitude N170 larger...
Abstract Studies investigating how children acquire emotional vocabularies have mainly focused on words that describe feelings or affective states (emotion-label words, e.g., joy ) trough subjective assessments of the children’s lexicon reported by their parents teachers. In current cross-sectional study, we objectively examined age acquisition relate to emotions without explicitly referring (emotion-laden cake, tomb, rainbow using a picture naming task. Three hundred and sixty participants...
Cognitive flexibility is an ability that allows individuals to integrate external evidence into previous expectancies. Individual differences in this were examined using Event-Related Potentials (ERPs), focusing on the fact new can either confirm or disprove initial impression. Written scenarios prompted make a prediction while confirmatory disconfirmatory followed. A final sentence presented participants with statement congruent likely have been formed based first rather corrective...
