Mismatch negativity and late discriminative negativity in investigating speech perception and learning in children and infantsM Cheour
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Turku, Finland
Audiol Neurootol 6:2-11. 2001..New data suggest that both of these responses have a special role in language processing, although both of them can also be elicited by nonspeech stimuli...
Speech sounds learned by sleeping newbornsM Cheour
Language and the Developing Brain Laboratory, Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience, and Department of Psychology, University of Turku, 20100 Turku, Finland
Nature 415:599-600. 2002..It is possible that such sleep training soon after birth could find application in clinical or educational situations...
The auditory sensory memory trace decays rapidly in newbornsMarie Cheour
Language and the Developing Brain Laboratory, Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Turku, Finland
Scand J Psychol 43:33-9. 2002..In view of the fact that in adults MMN is elicited even with a 10s SOA, these results imply that the time span of auditory memory is considerably shorter in neonates than in adults and 8-12-year-old children...
Mismatch negativity shows that 3-6-year-old children can learn to discriminate non-native speech sounds within two monthsMarie Cheour
Language and the Developing Brain Laboratory, Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Turku, Turku, Finland
Neurosci Lett 325:187-90. 2002..Accordingly, these data herald the vast potential MMN may entail for studying language learning, especially in situations where behavioral responses cannot be readily elicited...
Event-related potentials associated with second language learning in childrenAnna Shestakova
Cognitive Brain Research Unit, Department of Psychology, P O Box 9, University of Helsinki, Helsinki FIN 00014, Finland
Clin Neurophysiol 114:1507-12. 2003..In this study, we investigated learning-related changes in auditory event-related potentials (ERPs) of Finnish-speaking 3-6-year-old children caused by learning French language...
Mismatch negativity and late discriminative negativity in sleeping human newbornsOlga Martynova
Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience, Department of Psychology, University of Turku, Assistentinkatu 7, 20014 Turku, Finland
Neurosci Lett 340:75-8. 2003..These results suggest functional differences between infant and adult sleep...
Electric brain responses obtained from newborn infants to changes in duration in complex harmonic tonesMarie Cheour
Department of Psychology, University of Miami, P O Box 248185, Coral Gables, FL 33124, USA
Dev Neuropsychol 22:471-9. 2002..This result is consistent with previous findings. The MMN amplitude, however, was surprisingly large in infants compared to older children...
Magnetoencephalography is feasible for infant assessment of auditory discriminationMarie Cheour
Department of Psychology, University of Miami, Coral Gables, FL 33124 0751, USA
Exp Neurol 190:S44-51. 2004..Our findings indicate that with the use of these new analysis routines, MEG will prove to be a very useful and more accessible experimental technique among pediatric populations...
Infant speech perception activates Broca's area: a developmental magnetoencephalography studyToshiaki Imada
Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195, USA
Neuroreport 17:957-62. 2006..The activation patterns observed in the superior temporal and inferior frontal regions provide initial evidence for the developmental emergence early in life of a perceptual-motor link for speech perception that may depend on experience...
Wiener filter deconvolution of overlapping evoked potentialsTao Wang
Department of Psychology, University of Miami, FL 33124, United States
J Neurosci Methods 158:260-70. 2006..The results are comparable to responses obtained by conventional and Maximum Length Sequence (MLS) methods...
