  • Chapin, Kayla B.; Clarke, Natasha; Garrard, Peter; Hinzen, Wolfram (Elsevier, 2022)
    Linguistic measures in spontaneous speech have shown promise in the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but it remains unknown which specific linguistic variables show sensitivity and how language decline relates ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Rosselló Ximenes, Joana; Morey, Cati; Camara, Estela; Garcia-Gorro, Clara; Salvador, Raymond; de Diego-Balaguer, Ruth (Elsevier, 2018)
    Cognitive decline accompanying the clinically more salient motor symptoms of Huntington's disease (HD) has been widely noted and can precede motor symptoms onset. Less clear is how such decline bears on language functions ...
  • Fuentes‑Claramonte, Paola; Soler‑Vidal, Joan; Salgado‑Pineda, Pilar; García‑León, María Ángeles; Ramiro, Nuria; Santo‑Angles, Aniol; Llanos Torres, María; Tristany, Josep; Guerrero‑Pedraza, Amalia; Munuera, Josep; Sarró, Salvador; Salvador, Raymond; Hinzen, Wolfram; McKenna, Peter J.; Pomarol‑Clotet, Edith (Nature Research, 2021)
    Auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH, ‘hearing voices’) are an important symptom of schizophrenia but their biological basis is not well understood. One longstanding approach proposes that they are perceptual in nature, ...
  • Soler-Vidal, Joan; Fuentes-Claramonte, Paola; Salgado-Pineda, Pilar; Ramiro, Nuria; García-León, María Ángeles; Llanos Torres, María; Arévalo, Antonio; Guerrero-Pedraza, Amalia; Munuera, Josep; Sarró, Salvador; Salvador, Raymond; Hinzen, Wolfram; McKenna, Peter; Pomarol-Clotet, Edith (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2022)
    The experience of auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH, “hearing voices”) in schizophrenia has been found to be associated with reduced auditory cortex activation during perception of real auditory stimuli like tones and ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Rosselló Ximenes, Joana; McKenna, Peter J. (Taylor & Francis (Routledge), 2016)
    Delusions are widely believed to reflect disturbed cognitive function, but the nature of this remains elusive. The "un-Cartesian" cognitive-linguistic hypothesis maintains (a) that there is no thought separate from language, ...
  • Martin, Txuss; Sitaridou, Ioanna; Hinzen, Wolfram (Septentrio Academic Publishing, 2021)
    A correlation between articles and Case has long been noted based on diachronic evidence. Beyond articles, evidence supports that this correlation extends further to clitics and the determiner system (the D-system) at ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Sevilla, Gabriel; Rosselló Ximenes, Joana; Salvador, Raymond; Sarró, Salvador; López-Araquistain, Laura; Pomarol-Clotet, Edith (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2018)
    Formal thought disorder (TD) is a neuropathology manifest in formal language dysfunction, but few behavioural linguistic studies exist. These have highlighted problems in the domain of semantics and more specifically of ...
  • Zimmerer, Vitor C.; Watson, Stuart; Turkington, Douglas; Ferrier, I. Nicol; Hinzen, Wolfram (Frontiers, 2017)
    Emerging linguistic evidence points at disordered language behavior as a defining characteristic of schizophrenia. In this article, we review this literature and demonstrate how a framework focusing on two core functions ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Çokal, Derya; Zimmerer, Vitor C.; Turkington, Douglas; Ferrier, I. Nicol; Varley, Rosemary; Watson, Stuart (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2019)
    Everyday speech is produced with an intricate timing pattern and rhythm. Speech units follow each other with short interleaving pauses, which can be either bridged by fillers (erm, ah) or empty. Through their syntactic ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Mattos, Otávio (Wiley, 2021)
    Preschoolers naturally form mental representations that capture generic knowledge about object kinds. These have been considered to pose a special explanatory and learning challenge. We here argue for a new deductive model ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Zimmerer, Vitor C.; Varley, Rosemary; Deamer, Felicity (Elsevier, 2019)
    In factive clausal embedding ([He knows [that it is warm outside]]), the embedded clause is presupposed to be true. In non-factive embedding ([He thinks [that it is warm outside]]) there is no presupposition, and in ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Durrleman, Stephanie; Franck, Julie (Elsevier, 2018)
    Previous studies have suggested sentential complementation is the crucial ingredient of languagethat relates to false-belief (FB) reasoning, while the role of relative clauses (RCs) is less clear.Nevertheless, under the ...
  • Zhang, Han; Hinzen, Wolfram (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2022)
    Background: Aphasia following cerebro-vascular accidents has been a primary source of insight for models of language in the brain. However, deviant language patterns in aphasia may reflect processing limitations and cognitive ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Schroeder, Kristen (Imprint Academic, 2015)
    The notion of 'the first person' is centrally invoked in philosophical discussions of selfhood, subjectivity, and personhood. We ask whether this notion, as invoked in these discussions, is con-tingently or essentially a ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram (Linguistic Society of America, 2016)
    According to this book, ‘each of us carries around in our heads a “mental grammar” far more impressive than any written grammar’ (6); this grammar is made up of ‘abstract rules’ that can generate a ‘seemingly infinite ...
  • Tovar, Antonia; Garí, Aina; Ruiz-Idiago, Jesús; Mareca Viladrich, Celia; Pomarol-Clotet, Edith; Rosselló Ximenes, Joana; Hinzen, Wolfram (Elsevier, 2020)
    Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disease causing motor symptoms along with cognitive and affective problems. Recent evidence suggests that HD also affects language across core levels of linguistic organization, ...
  • Tovar Torres, Antonia; Schmeisser Nieto, Wolfgang Sebastian; Garí Soler, Aina; Morey Matamalas, Catalina; Hinzen, Wolfram (Open Library of Humanities, 2019)
    On current models of the language faculty, the language system is taken to be divided by an interface with systems of thought. However, thought of the type expressed in language is difficult to access in language-independent ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram; Peinado, Elisa; Perry, Scott James; Schroeder, Kristen; Lombardo, Mariana (Elsevier, 2022)
    Language plays a well-documented role in perceptual object categorization, but little is known about its role in the categorization of complex events. We explored this here with a perspective from age or developmentally ...
  • Hinzen, Wolfram (Wiley, 2017)
    The view that proper names are uniformly predicates (‘predicativism’) has recently gained prominence. I review linguistic evidence against it. Overall, the (cross-) linguistic evidence suggests that proper names function ...
