- Honors theses on role-reversals, real-time neural-synchrony, and COVID sentiment
Many congratulations to seniors in the lab who completed their honors theses! Shuchen Wen conducted an EEG experiment testing the timing of argument-structure by testing for N400 effects when argument roles were reversed in Ba- and Bei-constructions in Mandarin Chinese. […]
- Award-winning undergraduate research at the Michigan research symposium
Congrats to the undergraduate researchers who presented their work at the spring research symposiums for the UROP program and MRADs program. Kennedy Lloyd won a coveted blue-ribbon award 🏆 for her poster titled Quantifying methodological racialized inequities in neurolinguistics. Analyzing […]
- See you in Pittsburgh for HSP 2023
We are looking forward to HSP2023 in Pittsburgh! Be sure to see the latest from lab members on cross-language grammatical representations, modeling retrieval interference, and Junyuan’s masters thesis (MPI Psycholinguistics) on cortical phrase-tracking! And don’t forget to check out work […]
- Two preprints: separating incremental composition from predictability and localizing dependency-processing across languages
I’m still catching up on some of our efforts from before the new year. These include two (2) pre-prints of papers that make use of the Little Prince datasets. First up: Miloš Stanojević (DeepMind) and I co-led a project where […]
- Dr. Tamarae Hildebrandt defends dissertation
Congratulations are in order for newly minted Ph.D. Tamarae Hidlebrandt who successfully defended her dissertation on December 19th! The dissertation describes a host of experiments combining acceptability judgments, self-paced reading experiments, and EEG to probe the nuanced inter-relatedness between grammatical […]
- Paper and data: fMRI datasets and linguistic annotations from naturalistic listening in English, Mandarin, and French
Jixing Li let a large team to prepare these unique neurolinguistic datasets. Speakers of English (49), Mandarin (35) or French (28) listened to a 1.5 h audiobook of The Little Prince during fMRI scanning. The full MRI datasets are released […]
- Presenting at AMLAP2022
Tzu-Yun Tung will be at the 2022 meeting of Architectures and Mechanisms for Language Processing to present some of her dissertation research on memory retrieval during language comprehension using a combination of EEG data and computational models. Check it out! […]
