Neural correlates of locative prepositionsMatthijs L Noordzij
F C Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging, Radboud University Nijmegen, P O Box 9101, NL 6500 HB Nijmegen, The Netherlands
Neuropsychologia 46:1576-80. 2008..Therefore, the function of this activity appears to be to create a general, amodal representation of locative prepositions that allow for flexible comparisons to either verbal or visual-spatial material...
The influence of visual experience on visual and spatial imageryMatthijs L Noordzij
Psychological Laboratory, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Heidelberglaan 2, NL 3584 CS Utrecht, The Netherlands
Perception 36:101-12. 2007..However, the difference on the spatial-imagery task between early-blind and sighted people in this study might also be caused by differences in experience with the analogue clock faces that formed the basis for the spatial judgments...
The influence of visual experience on the ability to form spatial mental models based on route and survey descriptionsMatthijs L Noordzij
Psychological Laboratory, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, The Netherlands
Cognition 100:321-42. 2006....
Reference frame preferences in haptics differ for the blind and sighted in the horizontal but not in the vertical planeMarijn E Struiksma
Experimental Psychology, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht Institute of Linguistics OTS, Utrecht University, Heidelberglaan 8, 3508 TC Utrecht, The Netherlands
Perception 40:725-38. 2011..In the absence of a dominant cue, such as gravity in the vertical plane, the blind might emphasise the functional relationship between the objects owing to enhanced experience with haptic exploration of objects...
Keep an eye on your hands: on the role of visual mechanisms in processing of haptic spaceAlbert Postma
Department of Experimental Psychology, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Heidelberglaan 2, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Cogn Process 9:63-8. 2008..Together this strongly points to an important role for visual processing mechanisms in the perception of haptic inputs...
Haptic orientation perception benefits from visual experience: evidence from early-blind, late-blind, and sighted peopleAlbert Postma
Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Heidelberglaan 2, 3584 CS Utrecht, The Netherlands
Percept Psychophys 70:1197-206. 2008..The role of visual processing mechanisms and visual experience in haptic spatial tasks is discussed...
Embodied representation of the body contains veridical spatial informationMarijn E Struiksma
Experimental Psychology, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) 64:1124-37. 2011..These findings are further discussed in terms of recent embodied cognition theories...
What is the link between language and spatial images? Behavioral and neural findings in blind and sighted individualsMarijn E Struiksma
Experimental Psychology, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Heidelberglaan 2, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Acta Psychol (Amst) 132:145-56. 2009....
Recipient design in tacit communicationSarah E Newman-Norlund
Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging, Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands
Cognition 111:46-54. 2009..Overall, these findings indicate that novel nonverbal communicative interactions are selected according to a socio-centric perspective, and they are strongly influenced by participants' traits...
Electrophysiological support for strategic processing of spatial sentencesMatthijs L Noordzij
Psychological Laboratory, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Psychophysiology 43:277-86. 2006..Therefore, this study provides neuroimaging evidence that different representational formats of spatial sentences arise almost directly when people are reading a spatial sentence...
Spatial tapping interferes with the processing of linguistic spatial relationsMatthijs L Noordzij
Psychological Laboratory, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, The Netherlands
Can J Exp Psychol 58:259-71. 2004..Therefore, this study provides converging evidence, using a dual-task methodology, that both separate verbal and visual-spatial strategies exist for the processing of simple spatial sentences...
Differences between early-blind, late-blind, and blindfolded-sighted people in haptic spatial-configuration learning and resulting memory tracesAlbert Postma
Experimental Psychology, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Heidelberglaan 2, 3584 CS Utrecht, The Netherlands
Perception 36:1253-65. 2007..Moreover, when assessed with a verbal response, categorical spatial-memory appeared strongest in the late-blind group. The role of haptic and visual experience thus appears to depend on the task aspect tested...
Spatial language processing in the blind: evidence for a supramodal representation and cortical reorganizationMarijn E Struiksma
Experimental Psychology and Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands
PLoS ONE 6:e24253. 2011....
Strategic and automatic components in the processing of linguistic spatial relationsMatthijs L Noordzij
Psychological Laboratory, Utrecht University, Helmholtz Institute, Heidelberglaan 2, NL 3584 CS Utrecht, The Netherlands
Acta Psychol (Amst) 119:1-20. 2005..In addition, depending on the context, a pictorial strategy is employed, which results in a supplementary visual-spatial representation...
Language beyond actionIvan Toni
F C Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging, Radboud University Nijmegen, P O Box 9101, 6500 HB Nijmegen, Netherlands
J Physiol Paris 102:71-9. 2008..Without denying the enormous importance of the discovery of mirror neurons, we highlight the limits of their explanatory power for understanding language and communication...
Categorical and metric distance information in mental representations derived from route and survey descriptionsMatthijs L Noordzij
Psychological Laboratory, Helmholtz Institute, Utrecht University, Heidelberglaan 2, 3584 CS Utrecht, The Netherlands
Psychol Res 69:221-32. 2005....
The role of planum temporale in processing accent variation in spoken language comprehensionPatti Adank
School of Psychological Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK
Hum Brain Mapp 33:360-72. 2012..It is concluded that posterior temporal areas, including PT, and frontal areas, including IFG, are involved in processing accent variation in spoken sentence comprehension...
