EHESS CNRS ENS, Paris, France
J Cogn Neurosci 17:954-68. 2005..These results thus allow us to separate script-specific and script-independent regions in the posterior temporal lobe, while demonstrating that both can be activated subliminally...
The neural code for written words: a proposalStanislas Dehaene
INSERM Unit 562, Cognitive Neuroimaging, Service Hospitalier Frederic Joliot, CEA DRM DSV 4 Place du general Leclerc, 91401 Orsay Cedex, France
Trends Cogn Sci 9:335-41. 2005..Our proposal can explain why the detection of 'open bigrams' (ordered pairs of letters) constitutes an important stage in visual word recognition...
Parsing a cognitive task: a characterization of the mind's bottleneckMariano Sigman
Unité INSERM 562, Cognitive Neuroimaging Service Hospitalier Frédéric Joliot, CEA DRM DSV, Orsay Cedex, France
PLoS Biol 3:e37. 2005..The other stages, mapping the numeral to an internal quantity and executing the motor response, can be carried out in parallel with another task. Changing the duration of these processes has no significant effect on the variance...

Ongoing spontaneous activity controls access to consciousness: a neuronal model for inattentional blindnessStanislas Dehaene
INSERM CEA Unit 562, Cognitive Neuroimaging, Service Hospitalier Frederic Joliot, Orsay, France
PLoS Biol 3:e141. 2005..Although highly simplified, the generic properties of a minimal network may help clarify some of the basic cerebral phenomena underlying the autonomy of consciousness...
Non-symbolic arithmetic in adults and young childrenHilary Barth
Laboratory for Developmental Studies, Harvard University, 33 Kirkland St, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Cognition 98:199-222. 2006..Abstract numerical quantity representations therefore are computationally functional and may provide a foundation for formal mathematics...
Brain activations during letter-by-letter reading: a follow-up studyCarole Henry
Service de Neurologie 1, IFR 70, , AP-HP, , 75651 Paris Cedex 13, France
Neuropsychologia 43:1983-9. 2005..We suggest that the pattern of evolution fits with the minimal hypothesis of normal strategic abilities and skill learning, associated with perceptual tuning in right-hemispheric structures able to substitute the disrupted VWFA...
Levels of processing during non-conscious perception: a critical review of visual maskingSid Kouider
Laboratoire des Sciences Cognitives et Psycholinguistique, EHESS CNRS ENS, 75230 Paris, France Cognitive Neuroimaging Unit, INSERM U562, SHFJ, CEA DSV, 91401 Orsay, France
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 362:857-75. 2007..According to us, maintaining this distinction is essential in order to make sense of the growing neuroimaging data on the neural correlates of consciousness...
Is consciousness a gradual phenomenon? Evidence for an all-or-none bifurcation during the attentional blinkClaire Sergent
Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale Unité 562, Service Hospitalier Frederic Joliot, Commissariat a l Energie Atomique, Orsay, France
Psychol Sci 15:720-8. 2004..We suggest that a stochastic nonlinear bifurcation in neural activity underlies the all-or-none perception observed during the attentional blink...
Dynamics of the central bottleneck: dual-task and task uncertaintyMariano Sigman
Unité INSERM 562, Cognitive Neuroimaging, Service Hospitalier Frederic Joliot, CEA DRM DSV, Orsay, France
PLoS Biol 4:e220. 2006..On this basis, we propose a hierarchical model of cognitive architecture that provides a synthesis of task-switching and PRP paradigms...
Developing intuition for prices in euros: rescaling or relearning prices?J Frederico Marques
Faculdade de Psicologia e de Ciencias da Educacao, Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal
J Exp Psychol Appl 10:148-55. 2004..An alternative global rescaling hypothesis received mixed support. Results also suggest that price estimations in euros have not yet reached a level of accuracy comparable with estimations in the former national currency...
