The animal nature of spontaneous human laughter (2014, background): “Studies suggest that these laugh types depend on neurally dissociable production systems (Jurgens, 2002; Wild, Rodden, Grodd, & Ruch, 2003), but no research exists, to our knowledge, on the ability of individuals to distinguish between spontaneous and volitional laughter.”
Are bigger brains better? (2009, neutral): “Such cross-connections between specialised modules are often critical for the acquisition of novel cognitive functions: for example, in humans there are direct projections from the neocortex to the major vocal motor neuron groups, which are either absent or weaker in non-human primates [113].”
Speech Production as State Feedback Control (2011, background): “As mentioned above, damage to the vocal tract areas of motor cortex often results in mutism (Jürgens, 2002; Duffy, 2005).”
Using music to induce emotions: Influences of musical preference and absorption (2008, background): “, 2001–02) suggest that emotions expressible in music may be categorized in terms of a small number of basic emotions (Sloboda and Juslin, 2001: 76), which might have evolved from vocal communication (Jürgens, 2002; Juslin and Laukka, 2003).”
Consensus Paper: Roles of the Cerebellum in Motor Control—The Diversity of Ideas on Cerebellar Involvement in Movement (2011, background): “At the subcortical level, the basal ganglia and the cerebellum are crucially involved in this network [86].”
Communication of emotions in vocal expression and music performance: different channels, same code? (2003, neutral): “tion (Jürgens, 2002).”
The New Handbook of Methods in Nonverbal Behavior Research (2008, background): “Ecological constraints involve not only the physical environment but also the social, and although human vocal aVect expression is based on phylogenetically old parts of the brain that are in many respects relatively similar to those of nonhuman primates, what is characteristic of humans is that the”
Selection for and against vocal learning in birds and mammals (2006, background): “Vocal non-learners, including non-human primates and pigeons, only have midbrain and medulla regions that control innate vocalizations (Jurgens 1995; Wild 1997); the cingulate cortex in mammals controls the motivation to vocalize innate sounds, but does not control the acoustic structure or syntax o”
Back in time: Reversed speech as a window into cognitive language processing—A systematic review (2026, unknown): “Recent research has demonstrated that aside from a fine-tuned coordination of muscle activity (Jürgens, 2002), motor timing processes are essential for speech production (Kotz & Schwartze, 2015; Tremblay et al., 2015).”
