The first days will doubtless have its issues, especially since the lecture rooms are a bit smaller than in Naples, and we now have, for the first time since VSS’s inception, over 2,000 attendees! If you feel that we can improve the conference, even if it is only a small detail, let us know The con- ference is our conference, and together we make it a wonderful experience I also invite you all to come to our award sessions This year’s recipients are Molly Potter (Davida Teller Award) and Duje Tadin (Elsevier/VSS Young Investigator Award) Moreover, our keynote speaker, Srini Sri- nivasan, will blow your mind and I can promise you that it will fuel many discussions Don’t miss it! So, I hope that our meeting will be a lively one and full of interaction; not only for the young, but also for the young at heart This year one of our oldest members, but one with an exceptional young heart, passed away Ian Howard was the best example of a leading scientist who knew how to make sure that scientists interact Those who have been at his parties know what I mean I feel sad that he will not be here in person, but happy that he will be present in our heart and discussions Enjoy!

I am also interested in research questions that relate to this goal, such as how brain circuits for speech/language change over childhood, what factors explain individual differences in speech/ language performance, how speech/language learning can be improved, and what neural changes occur as a function of learning and training in the auditory-motor domain. To address my research questions, I use classical behavioural paradigms, as well as structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Saccades present unique challenges to both perceptual and motor systems. During the move- ment, the visual input is smeared across the retina and severely degraded. Once completed, the projection of the world onto the retina has undergone a large-scale spatial transformation. The vector of this transformation, and the new orientation of D.

Aagten-Murphy and P. M. Bays the eye in the external world, is uncertain. Memory for the pre-saccadic visual input is thought to play a central role in compensating for the disruption caused by saccades. Here, we review evidence that memory contributes to (1) detecting and identifying changes in the world that occur during a saccade, (2) bridging the gap in input so that visual processing does not have to start anew, and (3) correcting saccade errors and recalibrating the oculomotor system to ensure accuracy of future saccades.

  • Planum Temporale Asymmetry in People Who Stutter
    Journal of Fluency Disorders xxx (xxxx) xxx–xxx Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Journal of Fluency Disorders journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/jfludis Planum temporale asymmetry in people who stutter Patricia M. Gougha, Emily L. Connallyb, Peter Howellc, David Wardd, ⁎ Jennifer Chestersb, Kate E. Watkinsb, a Department of Psychology, Maynooth University, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland b Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3UD, UK c Department of Psychology, University College London, Bedford Way, London, WC1E 6BT, UK d School of Psychology and Clinical Language Sciences, University of Reading, Harry Pitt Building, Earley Gate, Reading, RG6 7BE, UK ABSTRACT Purpose: Previous studies have reported that the planum temporale – a language-related struc- ture that normally shows a leftward asymmetry – had reduced asymmetry in people who stutter (PWS) and reversed asymmetry in those with severe stuttering. These findings are consistent with the theory that altered language lateralization may be a cause or consequence of stuttering. Here, we re-examined these findings in a larger sample of PWS. Methods: We evaluated planum temporale asymmetry in structural MRI scans obtained from 67 PWS and 63 age-matched controls using: 1) manual measurements of the surface area; 2) voxel- based morphometry to automatically calculate grey matter density. We examined the influences of gender, age, and stuttering severity on planum temporale asymmetry. Results: The size of the planum temporale and its asymmetry were not different in PWS compared with Controls using either the manual or the automated method. Both groups showed a sig- nificant leftwards asymmetry on average (about one-third of PWS and Controls showed right- ward asymmetry).

  • Volunteers Needed for Speech Research
    Speech and Brain Research Group (Prof. Kate Watkins) Department of Experimental Psychology University of Oxford Email: [email protected] INSTEP TRIAL: Investigating non-invasive brain stimulation to enhance fluency in people who stutter CUREC Ref. No.: R52173/RE001 Version 1.0 Date 15th September 2017 VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR SPEECH RESEARCH Researchers at the Department of Experimental Psychology University of Oxford are seeking healthy fluent speaking male participants for a study investigating stuttering. Volunteers should be male, aged 18-45 years, and native English speakers. You will be asked questions about your medical history to check your suitability for an MRI scan and brain stimulation. The study involves MRI scanning of the brain and vocal tract, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), which will take place during one or two visits to the OHBA Centre at the Warneford Hospital in Oxford. MRI gives very detailed pictures of structure and function. TMS is used here to measure the excitability of the brain areas involved in speech production. These methods are non-invasive and do not involve ionising radiation. We will reimburse volunteers for their time and cover reasonable travel expenses. If you are interested in participating in this study and/or would like further information, please contact the Speech and Brain Research Group on [email protected] [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group [email protected] Speech & Brain Research Group Research Group Research .

We conducted a spatial working memory task in which retinotopic-plus-updating, but they vary widely in how quickly, subjects remembered a cued location in spatiotopic or retinotopic automatically, or successfully this updating might occur. For coordinates while making guided eye movements during the memory example, several groups have demonstrated that locations can be delay. Surprisingly, after a saccade, subjects were significantly more rapidly “remapped,” sometimes even in anticipation of an eye accurate and precise at reporting retinotopic locations than spatiotopic movement (20–22), but a recent set of studies has argued that locations. This difference grew with each eye movement, such that updating requires not only remapping to the new location, but spatiotopic memory continued to deteriorate, whereas retinotopic also extinguishing the representation at the previous location, memory did not accumulate error. The loss in spatiotopic fidelity and this latter process may occur on a slower time scale (23, 24). is therefore not a generic consequence of eye movements, but a Moreover, it is an open question just how accurate we are at direct result of converting visual information from native retinotopic spatiotopic perception.

  • Copyright 2013 Jeewon Ahn
    Copyright 2013 JeeWon Ahn THE CONTRIBUTION OF VISUAL WORKING MEMORY TO PRIMING OF POP-OUT BY JEEWON AHN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Alejandro Lleras, Chair Professor John E. Hummel Professor Arthur F. Kramer Professor Daniel J. Simons Associate Professor Diane M. Beck ABSTRACT Priming of pop-out (PoP) refers to the facilitation in performance that occurs when a target- defining feature is repeated across consecutive trials in a pop-out singleton search task. While the underlying mechanism of PoP has been at the center of debate, a recent finding (Lee, Mozer, & Vecera, 2009) has suggested that PoP relies on the change of feature gain modulation, essentially eliminating the role of memory representation as an explanation for the underlying mechanism of PoP. The current study aimed to test this proposition to determine whether PoP is truly independent of guidance based on visual working memory (VWM) by adopting a dual-task paradigm composed of a variety of both pop-out search and VWM tasks. First, Experiment 1 tested whether the type of information represented in VWM mattered in the interaction between PoP and the VWM task. Experiment 1A aimed to replicate the previous finding, adopting a design almost identical to that of Lee et al., including a VWM task to memorize non-spatial features. Experiment 1B tested a different type of VWM task involving remembering spatial locations instead of non-spatial colors.

  • Scene and Position Specificity in Visual Memory for Objects
    Journal of Experimental Psychology: Copyright 2006 by the American Psychological Association Learning, Memory, and Cognition 0278-7393/06/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/0278-7393.32.1.58 2006, Vol. 32, No. 1, 58–69 Scene and Position Specificity in Visual Memory for Objects Andrew Hollingworth University of Iowa This study investigated whether and how visual representations of individual objects are bound in memory to scene context. Participants viewed a series of naturalistic scenes, and memory for the visual form of a target object in each scene was examined in a 2-alternative forced-choice test, with the distractor object either a different object token or the target object rotated in depth. In Experiments 1 and 2, object memory performance was more accurate when the test object alternatives were displayed within the original scene than when they were displayed in isolation, demonstrating object-to-scene binding. Experiment 3 tested the hypothesis that episodic scene representations are formed through the binding of object representations to scene locations. Consistent with this hypothesis, memory performance was more accurate when the test alternatives were displayed within the scene at the same position originally occupied by the target than when they were displayed at a different position. Keywords: visual memory, scene perception, context effects, object recognition Humans spend most of their lives within complex visual envi- that work on scene perception and memory often assumes the ronments, yet relatively little is known about how natural scenes existence of scene-level representations (e.g., Hollingworth & are visually represented in the brain.
