TLDR
The results suggest that the inflectional processing cost stems from the later, lexical-semantic stage of processing in both modalities, and that combinatorial case-inflection processing requires a real word stem in order to proceed.About:

Basic Linguistic Composition Recruits the Left Anterior Temporal Lobe and Left Angular Gyrus During Both Listening and Reading
Douglas K. Bemis,Liina Pylkkänen +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that both modalities rely upon shared neural mechanisms localized to the left anterior temporal lobe (lATL) and left angular gyrus (lAG) during such processing, and that combinatorial mechanisms subserved by these regions are deployed in the same temporal order within each modality.

Morphological processing as we know it: an analytical review of morphological effects in visual word identification.
Simona Amenta,Davide Crepaldi +1 more
TL;DR: This review aims to delineate the state of the art in the research on the visual identification of complex words by reviewing major empirical evidences in a number of different paradigms, and identifies a series of effects that are judged as reliable or that were consistently replicated in different experiments, along with some more controversial data which are tried to resolve and explain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time is of the Essence: A Review of Electroencephalography (EEG) and Event-Related Brain Potentials (ERPs) in Language Research.
TL;DR: The excellent temporal resolution of EEG information allows one to track a brain response in milliseconds and therefore makes it uniquely suited to research concerning language processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological processing in the brain: The good (inflection), the bad (derivation) and the ugly (compounding).
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview on the state-of-the-art of the research on the neural mechanisms of morphological processing covering a wide range of electro- and magnetoencephalography (EEG and MEG) as well as structural/functional magnetic resonance imaging (s/fMRI) studies that focus on morphologicalprocessing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for early morphological decomposition: Combining masked priming with magnetoencephalography
TL;DR: Data regarding the transitional probability from stem to affix in a post hoc comparison is presented, which suggests that this factor may modulate early morphological decomposition, particularly for opaque words.

EEGLAB: an open source toolbox for analysis of single-trial EEG dynamics including independent component analysis.
Arnaud Delorme,Scott Makeig +1 more
TL;DR: EELAB as mentioned in this paper is a toolbox and graphic user interface for processing collections of single-trial and/or averaged EEG data of any number of channels, including EEG data, channel and event information importing, data visualization (scrolling, scalp map and dipole model plotting, plus multi-trial ERP-image plots), preprocessing (including artifact rejection, filtering, epoch selection, and averaging), Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and time/frequency decomposition including channel and component cross-coherence supported by bootstrap statistical methods based on data resampling.

Electrophysiology reveals semantic memory use in language comprehension
Marta Kutas,Kara D. Federmeier +1 more
TL;DR: Findings using an electrophysiological brain component, the N400, that reveal the nature and timing of semantic memory use during language comprehension support a view of memory in which world knowledge is distributed across multiple, plastic-yet-structured, largely modality-specific processing areas, and in which meaning is an emergent, temporally extended process.

Scalp distributions of event-related potentials: An ambiguity associated with analysis of variance models
TL;DR: Using potential distributions generated by dipole sources in spherical volume conductor models, it is demonstrated that highly significant interactions involving electrode location can be obtained between scalp distributions with identical shapes generated by the same source.

A cortical network for semantics: (de)constructing the N400.
TL;DR: It is shown that evidence bearing on where the N400 response is generated provides key insights into what it reflects, and this has important consequences for neural models of language comprehension.

Auditory and Visual Semantic Priming in Lexical Decision: A Comparison Using Event-related Brain Potentials
TL;DR: The authors compared and contrasted semantic priming in the visual and auditory modalities using event-related brain potentials (ERPs) and behavioural measures (errors and reaction time) and found that the ERP priming effect began earlier, was larger in size, and lasted longer in the auditory modality than in visual modality.
