The selective role of premotor cortex in speech perception: A contribution to phoneme judgements but not speech comprehension (2013)
Journal Article
Krieger-Redwood, K., Gareth Gaskell, M., Lindsay, S., & Jefferies, E. (2013). The selective role of premotor cortex in speech perception: A contribution to phoneme judgements but not speech comprehension. Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 25(12), 2179-2188. https://doi.org/10.1162/jocn_a_00463

Several accounts of speech perception propose that the areas involved in producing language are also involved in perceiving it. In line with this view, neuroimaging studies show activation of premotor cortex (PMC) during phoneme judgment tasks; howev...

Lexical integration of novel words without sleep (2013)
Journal Article
Lindsay, S., & Gareth Gaskell, M. (2013). Lexical integration of novel words without sleep. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 39(2), 608-622. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0029243

Learning a new word involves integration with existing lexical knowledge. Previous work has shown that sleep-associated memory consolidation processes are important for the engagement of novel items in lexical competition. In 3 experiments we used sp...

To Dash or to Dawdle: Verb-Associated Speed of Motion Influences Eye Movements during Spoken Sentence Comprehension (2013)
Journal Article
Lindsay, S., Scheepers, C., & Kamide, Y. (2013). To Dash or to Dawdle: Verb-Associated Speed of Motion Influences Eye Movements during Spoken Sentence Comprehension. PLoS ONE, 8(6), Article e67187. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0067187

In describing motion events verbs of manner provide information about the speed of agents or objects in those events. We used eye tracking to investigate how inferences about this verb-associated speed of motion would influence the time course of att...
