If you happen to be in Taipei in early November, we're holding a conference on the psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics of under-researched languages of Taiwan and around! Click here to know more: sites.google.com/view/mealp-2...

Very proud of this latest paper, which shows that reading two unrelated words in a meaningful sentence will push these words closer in semantic space—an effect observed 5min, 20min, and 12 hrs after initial exposure. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

This brief tutorial on Mixed-Effects Models by Professor Marc Brysbaert could be helpful for novice researchers interested in second language acquisition! LINK 🔽

Learning to read changes the brain’s visual processing, repurposing neural pathways originally used for object and face recognition. 🧠📖 In this #AbralinTalk, @falkhuettig.bsky.social explains how literacy affects cognition. Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1Wp... #langsky #linguistics

Experimental psychology friends! How do you handle critiques of your cross-sectional aging study during a job talk with suggestions to use longitudinal methods? Both have strengths & weaknesses (any suggested articles?). Comparing their similarities feels more useful than ranking one over the other.

I've been talking to UG students a lot about essay writing this week. Interested to know what others make of my advice to them: Pretty much every good psychology essay includes a balance of theory and evidence. Sometimes it helps to reframe the question to make it clear that both are relevant.

I've created a starter pack with researchers who study #reading or #psycholinguistics, more generally, in #languages other than English: go.bsky.app/E2e9Afg. Please write to me if you or someone you know should be added (of if you've been added and would like to be removed)!

As I've been seeing a lot of job postings here, I've set up a NeuroJobs feed. Add #NeuroJobs to your post if you're recruiting or looking for a PhD, Postdoc, or faculty position in Neuro or an adjacent field. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Starting to put together a starter pack with people working in the neurobiology of reading: go.bsky.app/82iWPfW Let me know if you want to be added! #neuroscience #linguistics #visionscience

I've created an Applied Linguistics and Second Language Studies starter pack for new BlueSky users (I credit @danielrisbell.bsky.social for the idea). Please share and let me know if you'd like to be added to or removed from the list! go.bsky.app/VZPgwMD

Here's a starter pack for people interested in the cognitive science and neuroscience of language. With all the new Bluesky arrivals, I'm sure I'm missing people—please let me know and I'll add! go.bsky.app/6iumPee

go.bsky.app/7wFxJHn I’ve created a starter pack for cognitive ag(e)ing researchers - let me know if you’d like to be added (or removed).

I think the last single author publication I had was my thesis, but in any case, here's another. An integrated framework for the learning, recognition and interpretation of words. 100% Gaskell, for better or for worse: doi.org/10.1177/1747...

Started a starter pack for psycholinguists, which doesn't seem to exist yet. DM me if you'd like to be added! x go.bsky.app/ntAXDF

Here's a short clip on our ongoing work on Developmental Language Disorders: youtu.be/BrQO5vubqms?...

Our Introduction to Bayesian Data Analysis for Cognitive Science (with Nicenboim and Schad) is now in production with CRC Press. It will remain freely available here: bruno.nicenboim.me/bayescogsci/

Here’s my cognitive neuroscience of speech and language starter pack, now with 100% more @dezubg.bsky.social go.bsky.app/6iumPee

Quick (4 minutes) open-access English vocabulary test. Useful for language scientists interested in the relationship between vocabulary knowledge and other human cognitive abilities.

In creating the CHILDES database, Brian MacWhinney has made a pioneering contribution to Open Science, way before sharing data was commonplace. In this piece we provide a brief introductory overview of the database to honour his efforts: osf.io/preprints/ps...

The Web-based Open-access Reliable Decision on Synonyms (WORDS): 4-minute English Vocab Test 🧑‍💻 @gorillapsych.bsky.social app.gorilla.sc/openmaterial... 📚 doi.org/10.5334/joc.... Designed by me and @rach-hulme.bsky.social @lenamblott.bsky.social @jennirodd.bsky.social Excited to see more use of it

Absolutely thrilled to announce the publication of our article "Psycholinguistics" in the new Open Encyclopedia of Cognitive Science: oecs.mit.edu. The best part: the article is co-authored by me and my amazing brother Vic Ferreira - our 1st pub together! Read it here: oecs.mit.edu/pub/y1uhdz0y...

I'm thrilled to share Episode 29 of the Language Neuroscience Podcast: a great conversation with Dorothy Bishop @deevybee.bsky.social about developmental language disorders, meta-science, and more! langneurosci.org/podcast/ep29

New blog post! "Preregistration: More Promises than Pitfalls," some thoughts inspired by the recent meeting at the Royal Society. I don't find many pitfalls with preregistration itself, but there are plenty of problems with how we talk about it. getsyeducated.substack.com/p/preregistr...

Unseen but influential associates🕵️‍♀️. In this new paper with Emiko Muraki, we find that semantic processing is influenced by properties of presented words' (non-presented) associates. Out today in @psychonomicsociety.bsky.social PB&R. Sharedit link here: rdcu.be/dAEtc

Feat. work by yours truly with @jennirodd.bsky.social @rogierk.bsky.social as well as Anna Gowenlock & Kate Nation, where we explore the difficulties in creating appropriate control conditions for individual differences research in psycholinguistics

Publication Day! Moving experimental psychology online: How to obtain high quality data I hope this will be useful www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
