This project aims to develop an objective neurophysiological marker that identifies when a person is talking silently to themselves in their head (inner speech), and what they are saying internally. Such a marker would be an important development in the field of cognitive science. It could reveal the fundamental nature of inner speech (whether inner speech is actually a special form of overt speech), and lead to ‘brain-computer interface’ technologies that can decipher inner speech and communicate it with the outside world.

该项目旨在开发一种客观的神经生理学标记，用于识别一个人何时在脑海中默默地自言自语（内部言语），以及他们在内部说什么。这样的标记将是认知科学领域的一个重要发展。它可以揭示内部言语的基本性质（内部言语是否实际上是一种特殊形式的公开言语），并导致“脑机接口”技术，可以破译内部言语并与外部世界进行交流。
