Neurolinguistics and linguistic aphasiology está en reserva en la biblioteca. Human Research Protection Program http://tulane.edu/asvpr/irb/index.cfm Before beginning research at Tulane University, all research personnel must complete the CITI Training Program; this can be completed at www.citiprogram.org. 03/14/11 2 SPAN 4130 - Harry Howard - Tulane University

4 S UMMARY OF LATERALIZATION OF WORD SEMANTICS LHRH Quickly selects most familiar or dominant meaning (convergent processing) while suppressing other less closely related meanings Slowly selects multiple meanings (divergent processing) that are weakly associated Primes words that share many semantic features > closely associated words Primes words that share few semantic features > loosely associated words Primes the most frequent meaning of an ambiguous word Primes the less frequent meaning of an ambiguous word Automatic (unconscious) processing Consciously controlled and attentive processing 03/14/11 4 SPAN 4130 - Harry Howard - Tulane University

5 S UMMARY OF LATERALIZATION OF PHONOLOGY LHRH lexical, phrasal, clausal stress; lexical tone in Thai/Chinese sentence type emotional intonation categorical distinctionsgraded/continuous distinctions rapid cues > small window of temporal integration slow cues > large window of temporal integration high frequency: formantslow frequency: fundamental time-dependent and sequential, i.e. temporal order, sequence, and duration of sounds and of intervals between sounds time-independent, i.e. pitch and harmonic structure (spectral) > inability to perceive frequency- related information [temporal cues][spectral cues] 03/14/11 5 SPAN 4130 - Harry Howard - Tulane University

11 GRANULARITY OF SEMANTIC PROCESSING (BEEMAN) On receipt of a word, the LH mediates focused activation of the limited subset of semantic content that is tied to the most frequent meaning or to the context at hand defined by precedent words or sentences. The activation concentrated on context-relevant content works to keep that meaning available for subsequent language comprehension. In contrast, on the receipt of a word, the RH characteristically generates diffuse activation related to the word's semantic content, including even weakly associated connotative components. In and of itself, the activation of a particular connotative association of a stimulus may not be strong enough to render that association available for conscious interpretation. 03/14/11 11 SPAN 4130 - Harry Howard - Tulane University

12 FINE VS. COARSE SEMANTIC CODING … when people read or hear a word, the LH uses relatively fine semantic coding to quickly select a single relevant meaning or a few relevant features, discarding the others This makes the LH extremely adept for most language tasks. In contrast, the RH employs relatively coarse semantic coding to weakly activate several meanings and many features of the word, including features that are only distantly related to the input word, given the context. This makes the RH less adept at many language tasks because diffusely activated semantic fields provide only a coarse interpretation of an individual word's meaning. Diffusely activated semantic fields also provide a poor basis for selecting individual semantic representations, because activation is distributed over many representations, rather than one or a few representations being much more active than the others. 03/14/11 12 SPAN 4130 - Harry Howard - Tulane University
