This program of research is designed to provide insight into the electrophysiological correlates of crucial cognitive processes, including 1) language comprehension, 2) autobiographical memory retrieval, and 3) imagining events. This research will make an important contribution to these areas of research by examining how temporal information associated with verbs (e.g., if events are described as ongoing or as completed) constrains these crucial processes. The three cognitive processes examined all involve the construction of mental representations of events and, therefore, insight will be gained into the similarities and differences in how these different processes are implemented in the brain.This innovative research will benefit some of the brightest young minds in Canada. The highly technical skills they will receive from this training will benefit the small pool of individuals in Canada with the ability to be employed in health and academic positions that require such professional training. Finally, the research will make a contribution to the people of Canada by providing insight into how people understand, remember, and imagine, which then can be applied to treatments of language and memory disorders.

该研究计划旨在深入了解关键认知过程的电生理相关性，包括1）语言理解，2）自传体记忆检索和3）想象事件。这项研究将通过研究时间信息如何与动词（例如，如果事件被描述为正在进行或已完成）约束这些关键过程。这三个认知过程都涉及事件的心理表征的构建，因此，将深入了解这些不同过程如何在大脑中实现的相似性和差异。这项创新的研究将使加拿大一些最聪明的年轻人受益。他们将从这种培训中获得的高度技术性技能将使加拿大为数不多的有能力在需要这种专业培训的卫生和学术职位上就业的个人受益。最后，这项研究将通过深入了解人们如何理解、记忆和想象，为加拿大人民做出贡献，然后将其应用于语言和记忆障碍的治疗。
