The true colors of reading: Literacy enhances lexical-semantic processing in rapid automatized and discrete object naming
Semantic knowledge is a defining property of human cognition, profoundly influenced by cultural experiences. In this study, we investigated whether literacy enhances lexical-semantic processing independently of schooling. Three groups of neurotypical adults - unschooled illiterates, unschooled ex-illiterates, and schooled literates - from the same residential and socioeconomic background in Portugal were tested on serial rapid automatized naming …
Politics, Poetry and Performance at a Time of Surveillance: (In)secure Home(land)s in Laurie Anderson’s Multimedia Art Work
This article discusses three recent and related works by Laurie Anderson. It starts by looking at her Dirtday! multimedia performance (2012) in Torres Novas, Portugal and goes on to examine how that performance drew on themes explored in her album Homeland (2010) and anticipated some of the concerns conveyed in her film Heart of a Dog (2015). By parodying mediatic and political language, these works create something that is not only a critique or…
Cognitive subtyping of university students with dyslexia in a semi-transparent orthography: What Can Weaknesses and Strengths Tell Us About Compensation
Developmental dyslexia is characterized by a profile of reading- and writing-related difficulties which stands out as a core deficit in phonological processing. Although these difficulties seem to persist into adulthood, it is still an open question to what extent they are immune, or not, to the extensive training resulting from extended schooling. The main objective of this study was to explore the heterogeneity of the cognitive profile of Europ…

The Distances that the Covid-19 Pandemic Magnified: Research on Informality and the State
What does research on informal sector workers and the state entail in the time of Covid-19? The pandemic has limited possibilities for in-person interactions and required adaptations in research approaches. These challenges are exacerbated when the subjects of the research are informal sector workers with limited access to technology and undefined spaces of work. In this article, we argue that the Covid-19 pandemic has magnified distances: betwee…
Do women’s rights organisations need ‘femocrats’? The negotiation of the Peruvian–Spanish agreement for development co-operation 2013–2016
In 2005, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) approved the aid effectiveness principles for improving the impact of Official Development Assistance (ODA). Donor countries such as Spain understood this agenda as an opportunity to promote gender equality in their development co-operation policy. However, gender equality almost disappeared as a priority in most of the bilateral agreements after 2005. This puzzling outcom…
Building Back Better, Gender Equality, and Feminist Dilemmas
The Covid-19 pandemic has affected men and women differently, exacerbating existing gender inequalities across a range of areas including health, education, and livelihoods. Globally, the levels of gender-based violence have increased. Consensus exists in policy circles that emergency response and recovery plans should consider both the immediate and longer-term gender impact of Covid-19, and without effective measures, the progress made to date …
Reading and reading-related skills in adults with dyslexia from different orthographic systems: A review and meta-analysis
Tracing the Contexts of Imprisonment: Perspectives on Incarceration between the Human and Social Sciences. An Introduction
Western academia has shown an increased interest in the question of incarceration throughout the late 20 th century and the early 21 st century. Michel Foucault 's Surveiller et punir (1975) sparked renewed discussions of carceral institutions as key to the political architecture of western modernity and as phenomena which demand critical and theoretical attention in genealogical as well as in structural and infra -structural terms. Since the boo…
Implicit sequence learning is preserved in dyslexic children
Too little or too much? Parafoveal preview benefits and parafoveal load costs in dyslexic adults
Rapid automatized naming and reading performance: A meta-analysis.
Evidence that rapid naming skill is associated with reading ability has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. However, there is considerable variation in the literature concerning the magnitude of this relationship. The objective of the present study was to provide a comprehensive analysis of the evidence on the relationship between rapid automatized naming (RAN) and reading performance. To this end, we conducted a meta-analysis of the c…
Object Naming in Dyslexic Children: More Than a Phonological Deficit
In the present study, the authors investigate how some visual factors related to early stages of visual-object naming modulate naming performance in dyslexia. The performance of dyslexic children was compared with 2 control groups-normal readers matched for age and normal readers matched for reading level-while performing a discrete naming task in which color and dimensionality of the visually presented objects were manipulated. The results showe…
Joyce Carol Oates's transatlantic personae: Fernando Pessoa and Jorge Luis Borges in the USA
This article explores Joyce Carol Oates's allusions to the work of the Portuguese writer Fernando Pessoa in her collection of stories, The Poisoned Kiss and Other Stories from the Portuguese (1975). In these stories, Oates maps out an unacknowledged transatlantic genealogy: she re-reads the work of Fernando Pessoa in order to unveil the influence of the Portuguese modernist writer in the works of Jorge Luis Borges – a figure who was, in turn, a m…
