The Neuropsychology of Compound Words
No full textThis chapter begins by pointing out the fact that neuropsychological evidence can be more revealing of language representation and processing because the effects obtained from the study of brain-damaged populations are often of a much greater magnitude. It reviews the state of the art in the neuropsychology of compound processing, and claims that this evidence, taken together with current evidence from the psycholinguistic literature, points to the functional independence of different types of lexical knowledge and that all compound processing involves morphological composition and decomposition. Evidence from Italian also points to the independence and dissociability of mechanisms of gender assignment. The chapter cites neuropsychological evidence that is consistent with the view that both compound constituents as well as whole-word representations are routinely and automatically activated in compound processing

No full textRole of EEG in Measuring Cognitive Reserve: A Rapid Review
No full textThis review aimed to systematically summarize the possible neural correlates of cognitive reserve thus giving an insight into prospective biomarkers for the concept. A total of 44 studies were analyzed following PRISMA guidelines and four studies were included in the further analysis. The results indicated a relationship between P3b waveform and cognitive reserve, while more ambiguous outcomes were found when conducting resting-state EEG. This review indicates the first steps into assessing CR using physiological measures; however, more research is needed for deeper understanding of its underlying mechanisms
