Journal ArticleDOI

Conceptual representations in mind and brain: theoretical developments, current evidence and future directions.

TL;DR: It is argued that an embodiment view of conceptual representations realized as distributed sensory and motor cell assemblies that are complemented by supramodal integration brain circuits may serve as a theoretical framework to guide future research on concrete and abstract concepts.
Journal ArticleDOI

A holistic account of the own-race effect in face recognition: evidence from a cross-cultural study.

TL;DR: The main finding was that Caucasian participants recognized own-race faces more holistically than Asian faces whereas Asian participants demonstrated holistic recognition for both own- race and other- race faces.
Journal ArticleDOI

The N400 is modulated by unconsciously perceived masked words: further evidence for an automatic spreading activation account of N400 priming effects.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that N400 priming effects can be reliably obtained from unconsciously perceived masked words at a very short SOA and strengthens the notion that the N400 is modulated by automatic spreading activation and not exclusively by strategic semantic processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The time course of brain activations during response inhibition: evidence from event-related potentials in a go/no go task.

TL;DR: Ostrated activation of prefrontal areas and the anterior cingulate subserves executive function whereas relatively late activity of the left premotor cortex is involved in motor control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emotional context modulates subsequent memory effect

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that successful episodic encoding is differentially modulated by emotional context, which contributes to the understanding of the interaction of emotion and cognition and is of general relevance for studies of episodic memory.
