If you analyse time-resolved data (M/EEG, iEEG, pupillometry, force recordings…) and feel limited by cluster-based permutation tests (CBPTs); especially when trying to determine when an effect starts or ends; you may want to try our new R package: lnalborczyk.github.io/neurogam/
#rstats #brms #EEG
Modelling time-resolved electrophysiological data with Bayesian generalised additive multilevel models
Providing utility functions for fitting Bayesian generalised additive multilevel models (BGAMMs) to time-resolved data (e.g., M/EEG, pupillometry, mouse-tracking, etc) and identifying clusters.

New preprint on prosody in the brain!

HeeSoKim NiharikaJhingan SaraSwords @hopekean.bsky.social @coltoncasto.bsky.social JenniferCole @evfedorenko.bsky.social

Prosody areas are distinct from pitch, speech, and multiple-demand areas, and partly overlap with lang+social areas→🧵
A distinct set of brain areas process prosody--the melody of speech
Human speech carries information beyond the words themselves: pitch, loudness, duration, and pauses--jointly referred to as 'prosody'--emphasize critical words, help group words into phrases, and conv...

❓Are #TheoryOfMind (inferring others’ mental states) brain areas always engaged to understand what people mean, or only for specific speech act types? And if so, why? 🤔

What does it mean to understand language? We argue that the brain’s core language system is limited, and that *deeply* understanding language requires EXPORTING info to other brain regions.

Are cortical rhythms entrained by speech or simply evoked?
👉 Evoked.

TL;DR:
Speech acoustics already carry the nested theta–gamma structure seen in auditory cortex.
Using advanced signal analyses, stereoEEG data, and speech corpora (17 languages).
