MMN and LDN asymmetries in Polish–English–Norwegian trilingual listeners
Purpose: This paper presents event-related potential (ERP) findings from a study investigating mismatch negativity (MMN) and late discriminative negativity (LDN) response asymmetries in trilingual listeners. The research aimed to explore phonetic representation in multilingual individuals. While theories predicting privative feature specification suggest stronger MMN and (potentially) LDN effects when the standard auditory stimuli have a feature …
The neurophysiology of phonemic contrasts perception in L2/L3 learners
Phoneme discrimination is believed to be less accurate in non-native languages compared to native ones. What remains unclear is whether differences in pre-attentive phonological processing emerge between the first foreign language (L2) and additional ones (L3/L n ), and whether they might be influenced by the acquisition setting (formal vs. naturalistic). We conducted an event-related brain potential oddball study with native Polish learners of E…
The impact of spatial and verbal working memory load on semantic relatedness judgements
Studies using a relatedness judgement task have found differences between prime-target word pairs that vary in the degree of semantic relatedness. However, the influence of working memory load on semantic processing in this task and the role of the type of working memory task have not yet been investigated. The present study therefore investigated for the first time the effect of working memory load (low vs. high) and working memory type (verbal …
Metaphors are like lenses
Aims and objectives: The study provides new insights into how bilingual speakers process semantically complex novel meanings in their native (L1) and non-native language (L2). Methodology: The study employs an EEG method with a semantic decision task to novel nominal metaphors, novel similes, as well as literal and anomalous sentences presented in participants’ L1 and L2. Data and analysis: In total, 29 native speakers of Polish (L1) who were hig…

The girl with finches
Cave burials are generally absent from historical periods in Europe. Consequently, the discovery of a post-medieval inhumation of a child buried with at least one bird head placed in the mouth in Tunel Wielki Cave (southern Poland) is an exceptional find. The aim of this paper is to discuss this unique burial based on multiproxy analyses conducted on the human and avian remains, including genetic and isotopic analyses as well as CT scans, radioca…
