Our new Cerebral Cortex paper shows the left inferior frontal gyrus (BA45) does it automatically, even when task-irrelevant. We used fMRI + computational models.
Congrats Marco Ciapparelli, Marco Marelli & team!

Thrilled to see this article with @ruimata.bsky.social out. We discuss how LLMs can be leveraged to map, clarify, and generate psychological measures and constructs.

Did you know Germans averaged 53 taboo words, while Brits e Spaniards listed only 16?
Great to see the work of our colleague Simone Sulpizio & Jon Andoni Duñabeitia highlighted! 👏

It's geared toward psychologists & linguists and covers extracting embeddings, predictability measures, comparing models across languages & modalities (vision). see examples 🧵

@ruimata.bsky.social and I propose a solution based on a fine-tuned 🤖 LLM (bit.ly/mpnet-pers) and test it for 🎭 personality psychology.
The paper is finally out in @natrevpsych.bsky.social: go.nature.com/4bEaaja

She investigates how meanings are encoded and evolve, combining linguistic and computational approaches.
Her work spans diachronic modeling of lexical change in Mandarin and semantic transparency in LLMs.

Words are weird? On the role of lexical ambiguity in language
🗣 Gemma Boleda (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Spain)
Why is language so ambiguous? Discover how ambiguity balances cognitive simplicity and communicative complexity through large-scale studies.

Humans can falsely recognize meaningless pseudowords when they resemble studied words. 🧠✨ This research shows that our brains detect hidden patterns, even without prior knowledge, leading to false memories.
