Con Maria Montefinese ed Eleonora Catricalà a PiF, Pavia, talking about semantic norms @mariamontefinese.bsky.social

New preprint🎉 We use word familiarity norms as a test case to examine methodological issues in lexical norming research across 61 studies/15 languages, & propose recommendations for more transparent and reproducible practices. doi.org/10.31234/osf... #Psycholinguistics #OpenScience

New blog post, inspired by the excellent recent qualitative paper by Makel and colleagues: On the reliability and reproducibility of qualitative research. I reflect on how I will incorporate realist ontologies in my own qualitative research. daniellakens.blogspot.com/2026/02/on-r...

Fresh from the lab: A new developmental study on cognitive flexibility. We investigated the "Unity and Diversity" of control by comparing domain-general (Executive) and domain-specific (Semantic) task-switching in 4-10 year olds. www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-7... #msca #ctrlaltdev

🧠New paper out! We introduce a novel semantic task-switching paradigm & show that executive + semantic flexibility share common mechanisms Check it out 👉https://rdcu.be/eCKK9 G. Viviani I. Di Pietro @aggieerin.bsky.social E. Ambrosini @annamariaporru.bsky.social #CognitiveFlexibility #Research

We're excited to be at #SIPS2025 in Budapest! Let's connect, exchange ideas, and advance better science in the field of cognitive control in children. @improvingpsych.org #OpenScience #PsychTwitter #Reproducibility #SIPS2025 #ScienceInProgress

🚨 PhD call in Neurosciences @UNIMORE_univ is open! Join our Cognitive Neuroscience & Psychology lab in Reggio Emilia 🇮🇹 – a vibrant, livable city. We study cognitive control, perception-action links & social cognition using EEG, behavioral, mathematical & computational modeling. 🧠👇

Hot off the press! 🔥In our new paper we show that concrete and abstract words engage the brain differently—and it depends on the task. EEG shows that concreteness is a continuous feature with distinct neural signatures. #Neuroscience #EEG dx.doi.org/10.1111/psyp...

Thrilled to share our latest paper has been accepted in Psychophysiology🎉 With an amazing interdepartmental team (A. Visalli, A. Angrilli, E. Ambrosini) we investigated how the brain processes word concreteness using ERPs, challenging theories of word meaning. Preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...
