Comparing the characteristics of hallucinations and mental imagery: A large cross-sectional study in the general population
Hallucinations (HAs), the perceptual experiences that occur without external stimuli, are classically associated with psychiatric disorders, but also occur in the general population. Involuntary mental imagery (IMI), the spontaneous occurrence of visual or auditory mental content, shares several features with HAs. The continuum hypothesis suggests that these phenomena exist on a spectrum ranging from benign to clinically significant experiences. …

La maîtrise du langage est une des conditions du développement psychoaffectif de l’enfant, de son bien-être social, de sa réussite scolaire et de sa future insertion professionnelle. Des disparités dans l’acquisition du langage sont observées dès les premières années de vie, liées à des facteurs individuels ou sociaux. Afin de réduire ces écarts, une des questions est celle des stratégies pour étayer le développement langagier. Nous présentons le…

Can language modulate perceptual narrowing for faces? Other-race face recognition in infants is modulated by language experience
Between 6 and 9 months, while infant’s ability to discriminate faces within their own racial group is maintained, discrimination of faces within other-race groups declines to a point where 9-month-old infants fail to discriminate other-race faces. Such face perception narrowing can be overcome in various ways at 9 or 12 months of age, such as presenting faces with emotional expressions. Can language itself modulate face narrowing? Many adult stud…
Language familiarity influences own‐race face recognition in 9‐ and 12‐month‐old infants
During their first year, infants attune to the faces and language(s) that are frequent in their environment. The present study investigates the impact of language familiarity on how French‐learning 9‐ and 12‐month‐olds recognize own‐race faces. In Experiment 1, infants were familiarized with the talking face of a Caucasian bilingual German‐French speaker reciting a nursery rhyme in French (native condition) or in German (non‐native condition). In…
A Cognitive Neuroscience View of Inner Language: New Voices
The nature of inner language has long been under the scrutiny of humanities, through the practice of introspection. The use of experimental methods in cognitive neurosciences provides complementary insights. This chapter focuses on wilful expanded inner language, bearing in mind that other forms coexist. It first considers the abstract vs. concrete (or embodied) dimensions of inner language. In a second section, it argues that inner language shou…
Perception of Multisensory Gender Coherence in 6‐ and 9‐Month‐Old Infants
One of the most salient social categories conveyed by human faces and voices is gender. We investigated the developmental emergence of the ability to perceive the coherence of auditory and visual attributes of gender in 6‐ and 9‐month‐old infants. Infants viewed two side‐by‐side video clips of a man and a woman singing a nursery rhyme and heard a synchronous male or female sound track. Results showed that 6‐month‐old infants did not match the aud…
Interaction of Audition and Vision for the Perception of Prosodic Contrastive Focus
Prosodic contrastive focus is used to attract the listener's attention to a specific part of the utterance. Mostly conceived of as auditory/acoustic, it also has visible correlates which have been shown to be perceived. This study aimed at analyzing auditory-visual perception of prosodic focus by elaborating a paradigm enabling an auditory-visual advantage measurement (avoiding the ceiling effect) and by examining the interaction between audition…
