Behavioral and Electrophysiological Correlates of Semantic Processing in Kannada
Abstract: Semantics is one of the fundamentals of language components, encoding of which helps in understanding the meaning of the spoken or written language. The processing pattern of semantics has been studied extensively in different languages using either the conventional psycholinguistic experiments or advanced neuroimaging techniques. Previous studies have documented the behavioral and electrophysiological correlates of semantic processing in different languages. However, the correlation between these measures has not been well …

Examining the Executive Functions in Neurotypical Individuals and Individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment
Abstract: Executive function (EF) is one of the key processes of cognition. It refers to a variety of skills which help in making socially responsible, self-serving, independent, and purposive behavior possible. Executive functions could be divided into domains like attention, response inhibition, cognitive flexibility and so on. The study tried to examine the integrity of two main executive functions (attention and response inhibition) in normal aging individuals and individuals with mild …

Music on Mind and Body: A Simultaneous EEG and EMG Study to Quantify Emotions from Hindustani Classical Music
Abstract: With the advent of various techniques to assess the bioelectric signals on the surface of the body, it has become possible to develop various human-computer interface systems. In this study, for the first-time a cross- correlation based data is reported for two-different types of bio-signals viz. EEG (Electroencephalography) and EMG (Electromyography). Whereas EEG refers to the neuro-electric impulses generated in the brain recorded in the form of electric potentials, EMG …

Neglect Analysis Using Semantic Picture Priming Paradigm among Hindi Speaking Developmental Dyslexics
Abstract: Introduction: Developmental dyslexia is a condition that is characterized by difficulties that mainly affect the ability of a child to read, write, calculate and spell. Developmental dyslexics may have neglected due to subtle weakness in a string of cortical areas on the bilateral dorsal pathway of the brain. Aim of the study: To analyze the presence of neglect in semantic picture priming paradigm among Hindi developmental dyslexics and typically developing …
