TL;DR: The results of this preliminary study indicate that Parkinson's disease might affect brain oscillatory responses in the alpha frequency range in the encoding phase of auditory-verbal working memory.

TL;DR: Investigating the pattern of near transfer effects of working memory (WM) training with an adaptive auditory-visuospatial dual n-back training task in healthy young adults revealed significant task-specific transfer to an untrained single n- back task, and more general near transfer to a WM updating composite score.

TL;DR: This article tested whether Finnish inflectional or derivational suffixes have lexical access units separate from word roots, and found that pseudowords carrying a case-inflection required significantly longer rejection times than non-affixed pseudoowords.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the participants' word learning and particularly their long-term maintenance, and examined whether the language and verbal short-term memory impairments of the participants with aphasia related to their ability to acquire and maintain phonological and semantic information on novel words.

TL;DR: CNP case studies continue to be an important source of information for generating hypotheses and providing converging evidence for research on the mind and on the brain, but there is a need for further research development especially in computational modelling of language processes, their impairments, and recovery.
