Dialectal variation has been constanly at the core of linguistic investigation. On the base of the few neurophysiological studies that explored dialectal data, this article examines if and how dialectal variation may contribute to the advancing of the neurobiology of language. Evidence suggest that… read more
2016 Electroencephalographic evidence of vowels computation and representation in human auditory cortex Biolinguistic Investigations on the Language Faculty, Di Sciullo, Anna Maria (ed.), pp. 79–100 | Article
By exploiting the N1 component of the auditory event related potentials we aimed to measure and localize the processing involving the spectro-temporal and the abstract featural representation. We investigated the electroencephalography patterns of 11 Salento Italian speakers discriminating their… read more
2009 Acoustic correlates of phonological microvariations: The case
of unsuspected micro-parametric metaphonetic processes
in a small area of Southern Salento (Apulia) Romance Languages and Linguistic Theory 2006: Selected papers from ‘Going Romance’, Amsterdam, 7–9 December 2006, Torck, Danièle and W. Leo Wetzels (eds.), pp. 89–110 | Article
Recent field researches in a small area of Southern Salento by means of an
appropriate questionnaire, acoustic analysis and statistic treatment of the data have
pointed out the existence of micro-parametric metaphonetic processes never noticed
before. These processes cause the raising of the… read more
