How the Brain Predicts Timing: Distinct Network Hubs for Predicting and Evaluating Auditory Sensory Events

The paper investigates how brain networks predict and evaluate auditory events by analyzing EEG data during a task with varying predictability, finding distinct connectivity patterns for prediction and evaluation phases.

Human newborns form musical predictions based on rhythmic but not melodic structure

This study shows newborns can track rhythmic statistical regularities in music but not melodic information, suggesting rhythm develops earlier than melody.

Threat-Related Corticocortical Connectivity Elicited by Rapid Auditory Looms

The paper examines corticocortical connectivity patterns in response to looming and receding sounds, finding frontal cortical involvement in auditory looming processing without conscious threat perception.

Longitudinal study of functional brain networks for processing infant directed and adult directed speech during the first year

This study examines how brain networks process infant-directed and adult-directed speech in infants over the first year, finding changes in network topology and hemispheric focus with age.

What are you talking about? Representation of the Topic of Speech in the Human Brain

The paper demonstrates the existence of a brain network sensitive to the topic of speech, showing it is linked to language comprehension and maintains topic-related representations.

Interpersonal Synchronization in Mother-Child Dyads: Neural and Motor Coupling as a Mechanism for Motor Learning and Development in Preschoolers

This study examines motor and neural synchronization in mother-child dyads during structured and spontaneous interactions, finding that motor synchronization correlates with children's motor development.

The effects of aging and hearing impairment on listening in noise

This study investigates how aging and hearing impairment affect listening in noise using behavioral and neurophysiological measures, finding that aging alone does not significantly impair sound source detection, but mild hearing loss does.

Early maturation of sound duration processing in the infant brain

This study examines sound duration processing in infants using EEG source reconstruction, finding developmental changes in ERP waveforms and their underlying neural generators between four and nine months.

Do we parse the background into separate streams in the cocktail party?

The study investigates whether background speech is segregated into separate streams in the cocktail party scenario by comparing target detection and ERP responses with different numbers of distractors.

Benefits of individualized brain anatomies and EEG electrode positions for auditory cortex localization

This study compares the impact of using template versus individualized brain anatomies and EEG electrode positions on the localization accuracy of the primary auditory cortex using dSPM and sLORETA inverse solutions.

Speech prosody supports speaker selection and auditory stream segregation in a multi-talker situation

This study investigates how speech prosody aids in speaker selection and auditory stream segregation in multi-talker environments through behavioral and neural responses.
