Bilateral inferior frontal language-related activation correlates with verbal recall in patients with left temporal lobe epilepsy and typical language distribution
Elsevier (2013)Language fMRI has been used in the presurgical evaluation of drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy patients. Previous studies have demonstrated that left temporal lobe epilepsy (LTLE) patients with atypical language ... -
Bilinguals use language-control brain areas more than monolinguals to perform non-linguistic switching tasks
Public Library of Science (2013)We tested the hypothesis that early bilinguals use language-control brain areas more than monolinguals when performing non-linguistic executive control tasks. We do so by exploring the brain activity of early bilinguals ... -
Bridging language and attention: Brain basis of the impact of bilingualism on cognitive control
Elsevier (2010)Using two languages on an everyday basis appears to have a positive effect on general-purpose executive control in bilinguals. However, the neural correlates of this effect remain poorly understood. To investigate the brain ...

Characterizing individual differences in reward sensitivity from the brain networks involved in response inhibition
Elsevier (2016)A “disinhibited” cognitive profile has been proposed for individuals with high reward sensitivity, characterized by increased engagement in goal-directed responses and reduced processing of negative or unexpected cues, ...

Differential neural control in early bilinguals and monolinguals during response inhibition
Elsevier (2014-05)We tested the hypothesis that early bilinguals and monolinguals use different brain areas when performing nonlinguistic executive control tasks. For this, we explored brain activity of early bilinguals and monolinguals ...

Frontostriatal response to set switching is moderated by reward sensitivity
Oxford University Press (2011)The reinforcement sensitivity theory (RST) relates individual differences in reward sensitivity to the activation of the behavioral approach system (BAS). Dopamine-related brain structures have been repeatedly associated ...

How Bilingualism Shapes the FunctionalArchitecture of the Brain: A Study on ExecutiveControl in Early Bilinguals and Monolinguals
Wiley (2015-09)The existence of a behavioral advantage of bilinguals over monolinguals during executive tasks is controversial. A new approach to this issue is to investigate the effect of bilingualism on neural control when performing ...
-
Inferior frontal cortex activity is modulated by reward sensitivity and performance variability
Elsevier (2016-01)High reward sensitivity has been linked with motivational and cognitive disorders related with prefrontal and striatal brain function during inhibitory control. However, few studies have analyzed the interaction among ...
-
Neural bases of language switching in high and early proficient bilinguals
Elsevier (2011-12)The left inferior frontal cortex, the caudate and the anterior cingulate have been proposed as the neural origin of language switching, but most of the studies were conducted in low proficient bilinguals. In the present ...
-
Neural differences between monolinguals and early bilinguals in their native languaje during comprehension
Elsevier (2015-11)Research has shown that semantic processing of sentences engages more activity in the bilingual compared to the monolingual brain and, more specifically, in the inferior frontal gyrus. The present study aims to extend those ...
-
Reward sensitivity modulates brain activity in the prefrontal cortex, acc and striatum during task switching
Public Library of Science (2015)Current perspectives on cognitive control acknowledge that individual differences in motivational dispositions may modulate cognitive processes in the absence of reward contingencies. This work aimed to study the relationship ...
-
Spontaneous Brain Activity Predicts Learning Ability of Foreign Sounds
Society for Neuroscience (2013-05)Can learning capacity of the human brain be predicted from initial spontaneous functional connectivity (FC) between brain areas involved in a task? We combined task-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and ...

State and Training Effects of Mindfulness Meditation on Brain Networks Reflect Neuronal Mechanisms of Its Antidepressant Effect
Hindawi Publishing Corporation (2016)The topic of investigating how mindfulness meditation training can have antidepressant effects via plastic changes in both resting state and meditation state brain activity is important in the rapidly emerging field of ...
-
The sentence verification task: a reliable fMRI protocol for mapping receptive language in individual subjects
Springer-Verlag (2010)To test the capacity of a sentence verification (SV) task to reliably activate receptive language areas. Presurgical evaluation of language is useful in predicting postsurgical deficits in patients who are candidates for ...
