The Functional Anatomy of Speech Processing: From Auditory Cortex to Speech...
AbstractLesion-based research has been successful in providing a broad outline of the neuroanatomy of speech/language processes (Dronkers et al. 2000; Hillis 2007), and continues to play a crucial role...
View ArticleRedefining the Functional Organization of the Planum Temporale Region: Space,...
AbstractThe planum temporale (PT) is defined anatomically by the triangular surface on the supratemporal plane posterior to Heschl’s gyrus (see Clarke and Morosan, Chapter 2). Its posterior boundary is...

View ArticleThe interface theory of perception: the future of the science of the mind?
AbstractPerception is typically conceptualized as a neurocognitive system that evolved to reveal the truth about objects and events in the world. Hoffman et al.'s Interface Theory of Perception...
View ArticleTiming in audiovisual speech perception: A mini review and new psychophysical...
AbstractRecent influential models of audiovisual speech perception suggest that visual speech aids perception by generating predictions about the identity of upcoming speech sounds. These models place...
View ArticleBridging computational approaches to speech production: The...
AbstractSpeech production is studied from both psycholinguistic and motor-control perspectives, with little interaction between the approaches. We assessed the explanatory value of integrating...
View ArticleEvaluating quantitative and conceptual models of speech production: how does...
AbstractIn a previous publication, we presented a new computational model called SLAM (Walker & Hickok, Psychonomic Bulletin & Review doi:10.3758/s13423-015-0903), based on the hierarchical...
View ArticleArguments about the nature of concepts: Symbols, embodiment, and beyond
AbstractHow are the meanings of words, events, and objects represented and organized in the brain? This question, perhaps more than any other in the field, probes some of the deepest and most...
View ArticleA cortical circuit for voluntary laryngeal control: Implications for the...
AbstractThe development of voluntary laryngeal control has been argued to be a key innovation in the evolution of language. Part of the evidence for this hypothesis comes from neuroscience. For...
View ArticleNeural evidence for predictive coding in auditory cortex during speech...
AbstractRecent models of speech production suggest that motor commands generate forward predictions of the auditory consequences of those commands, that these forward predications can be used to...
View ArticleThe motor system’s [modest] contribution to speech perception
AbstractRecent evidence suggests that the motor system may have a facilitatory role in speech perception during noisy listening conditions. Studies clearly show an association between activity in...

AbstractLesion-based research has been successful in providing a broad outline of the neuroanatomy of speech/language processes (Dronkers et al.,, MIT Press, Cambridge, 2000; Hillis, Neurology...
View ArticleThe rhythm of attention: Perceptual modulation via rhythmic entrainment is...
AbstractModulation patterns are known to carry critical predictive cues to signal detection in complex acoustic environments. The current study investigated the persistence of masker modulation effects...
View ArticleThe relationship between dorsal stream connections to the caudate and verbal...
AbstractPerformance in verbal fluency tasks are widely used as a marker of cognitive impairment in Parkinson disease. However, the anatomical substrate of its impairment remains undetermined. Based on...
View ArticleInformational Masking in Aging and Brain-lesioned Individuals
AbstractAuditory stream segregation and informational masking were investigated in brain-lesioned individuals, age-matched controls with no neurological disease, and young college-age students. A...
View ArticleForward entrainment: Psychophysics, neural correlates, and function
AbstractWe define forward entrainment as that part of behavioral or neural entrainment that outlasts the entraining stimulus. In this review, we examine conditions under which one may optimally observe...
View ArticleThe cortical organization of speech processing
Decades of research have not yet succeeded in definitively characterizing the neuroanatomy of speech processing. Hickok and Poeppel describe a dual-stream model of speech processing and discuss how...
View ArticleComputational neuroanatomy of speech production
The study of speech production has largely been divided into investigations of lower-level articulatory motor control and of higher-level linguistic processing, with these research traditions rarely...
View ArticleTypes of naming errors in chronic post-stroke aphasia are dissociated by dual...
AbstractThe types of errors during speech production can vary across individuals with chronic post-stroke aphasia, possibly due to the location and extent of brain damage. In this study, we evaluated...
