Effect of bilingualism on cognitive control in the Simon task: evidence from MEG.
Ellen Bialystok,Fergus I. M. Craik,Cheryl L. Grady,Wilkin Chau,Ryouhei Ishii,Atsuko Gunji,Christo Pantev +6 more
TL;DR: The present study used magneto-encephalography (MEG) to determine the neural correlates of the bilingual advantage previously reported for behavioral measures in conflict tasks, and found that the management of two language systems led to systematic changes in frontal executive functions.

Spatiotemporal analysis of event-related fMRI data using partial least squares.
TL;DR: This paper presents the extension of spatiotemporal PLS to fMRI, explaining the theoretical foundation and application to an fMRI study of auditory and visual perceptual memory and several unique observations by ST-PLS, including enhanced statistical power.

Music training leads to the development of timbre-specific gamma band activity.
TL;DR: Adult musicians showed robust enhancement of induced (non-time-locked) GBA, specifically to their instrument of practice, with the strongest effect in professional violinists and amateur pianists, and children receiving piano lessons exhibited increased power of induced GBA for piano tones with 1 year of training.

An empirical comparison of SPM preprocessing parameters to the analysis of fMRI data.
TL;DR: The canonical hemodynamic response function is a more reliable basis function to model the fMRI time series than HRF with time derivative and the use of first-order autoregressive model is recommended over a low-pass filter because it reduces the risk of inferential bias while providing a relatively good power.

TL;DR: Investigating active cortical areas associated with magnetically recorded transient and steady-state auditory evoked responses suggests that SAM is a useful technique for imaging cortical structures involved in processing perceptual information.
