Electrophysiological correlates of language comprehension, autobiographical memory retrieval, and imagined events.

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。所研究的三种认知过程都涉及对事件的心理表征的构建，因此，将深入了解这些不同过程在大脑中如何实现的相似性和差异。

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.
