PMID: 24592227
This study examines by means of functional magnetic resonance imaging the neural mechanisms underlying adolescents' risk decision-making in social contexts. We hypothesize that the social context could engage brain regions...

Neuropsychologia
. 2014 Jan;
56:79-89.
PMID: 24440410
A growing body of literature shows that the emotional content of verbal material affects reading, wherein emotional words are given processing priority compared to neutral words. Human emotions can be...

de Vega M, Leon I, Hernandez J, Valdes M, Padron I, Ferstl E
J Cogn Neurosci
. 2014 Jan;
26(7):1363-76.
PMID: 24392906
Some studies have reported that understanding concrete action-related words and sentences elicits activations of motor areas in the brain. The present fMRI study goes one step further by testing whether...

Franzmeier I, Hutton S, Ferstl E
Cogn Neurosci
. 2013 Oct;
3(1):1-7.
PMID: 24168644
Neuroimaging studies have shown the left temporal lobe to be important for contextual sentence integration. This study used single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to establish stronger causal evidence for the...

Citron F, Weekes B, Ferstl E
Neurosci Lett
. 2012 Nov;
533:90-5.
PMID: 23142715
Models of affect assume a two-dimensional framework, composed of emotional valence and arousal. Although neuroimaging evidence supports a neuro-functional distinction of their effects during single word processing, electrophysiological studies have...

Behav Res Methods
. 2011 Feb;
43(1):124-35.
PMID: 21287124
This study provides implicit verb causality norms for a corpus of 305 English verbs. A web-based sentence completion study was conducted, with 96 respondents completing fragments such as "John liked...

Ferstl E, von Cramon D
Neurosci Lett
. 2007 Oct;
427(3):159-64.
PMID: 17949905
Story comprehension involves building a situation model of the text, i.e., a representation containing information on the who, where, when and why of the story. Using fMRI at 3T, domain-specific...

Sieborger F, Ferstl E, von Cramon D
Brain Res
. 2007 Jul;
1166:77-91.
PMID: 17655831
Inferences during discourse comprehension are needed to connect subsequent sentences to each other. Previous studies have implicated the dorso-medial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) as important for successful coherence building. The present...

Hum Brain Mapp
. 2007 Jun;
29(5):581-93.
PMID: 17557297
Language processing in context requires more than merely comprehending words and sentences. Important subprocesses are inferences for bridging successive utterances, the use of background knowledge and discourse context, and pragmatic...

PMID: 16766343
Two experiments tested text comprehension skills in adults varying in age from 20 to 69 years. A coherence judgment task (n = 39), in which the pragmatic connection of two...
