  • Prosodic processing in sentences with ‘only’ in L1 and L2 English

    Open AccessRachida Ganga, Haoyan Ge et al.ARTICLEStudies in Second Language…2024

    It has been proposed that second language (L2) learners differ from native speakers in processing due to either influence from their native language or an inability to integrate information from multiple linguistic domains in a second language. To shed new light on the underlying mechanism of L2 processing, we used an event-related potentials (ERP) paradigm to examine the processing of sentences with only in English by native speakers of English …

  • Processing of Grammatical Agreement in the Face of Variation in Lexical Stress

    Open AccessCas W Coopmans, Marijn E Struiksma et al.ARTICLELanguage and Speech2023References: 31

    Previous electroencephalography studies have yielded evidence for automatic processing of syntax and lexical stress. However, these studies looked at both effects in isolation, limiting their generalizability to everyday language comprehension. In the current study, we investigated automatic processing of grammatical agreement in the face of variation in lexical stress. Using an oddball paradigm, we measured the Mismatch Negativity (MMN) in Dutch…

  • Do People Get Used to Insulting Language

    Open AccessMarijn E Struiksma, Hannah De Mulder et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Communication2022

    Verbal insults go against a universal moral imperative not to inflict harm on others, and they also pose a threat to one's face or reputation. As such, these “verbal slaps in the face” provide a unique opportunity to explore the interface between language and emotion. We used electroencephalography (EEG) and skin conductance (SC) recordings to compare the short-term impact of verbal insults such as “Linda is an idiot” or “Paula is horrible” to th…

  • Do self-talk phrases affect behavior in ultimatum games

    Open AccessFrey, Hannah De Mulder et al.ARTICLEMind & Society2022References: 5

    The current study investigates whether self-talk phrases can influence behavior in Ultimatum Games. In our three self-talk treatments, participants were instructed to tell themselves ( i ) to keep their own interests in mind, ( ii ) to also think of the other person, or ( iii ) to take some time to contemplate their decision. We investigate how such so-called experimenter-determined strategic self-talk phrases affect behavior and emotions in comp…

  • Reading About Us and Them

    Open AccessBjörn 't Hart, Björn ‘t Hart et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Communication2021

    Many of our everyday emotional responses are triggered by language, and a full understanding of how people use language therefore also requires an analysis of how words elicit emotion as they are heard or read. We report a facial electromyography experiment in which we recorded corrugator supercilii, or “frowning muscle”, activity to assess how readers processed emotion-describing language in moral and minimal in/outgroup contexts. Participants r…

  • The affect of negativity

    Open AccessBregje Holleman, Naomi Kamoen et al.ARTICLECognition & Emotion2021

    In decision-making people react differently to positive wordings than to negatives, which may be caused by negativity bias: a difference in emotional force of these wordings. Because emotions are assumed to be activated more strongly in one’s mother tongue, we predict a Foreign Language Effect, being that such framing effects are larger in a native language than in a foreign one. In two experimental studies (N = 475 and N = 503) we tested this pr…
