How do typically developing children grasp the meaning of verbal irony (2007, background): “There is certainly evidence that implicit double negation renders inferences more difficult in reasoning tasks (e.g., Evans & Handley, 1999; Schroyens, Schaeken, Fias, & d’Ydewalle, 2000).”

Rethinking the neurological basis of language (2005, background): “These results can be accounted for if the primary deficit is considered to be one of keeping available lexical and phrasal information.”
Responding to the emotions of others: dissociating forms of empathy through the study of typical and psychiatric populations. (2005, neutral): “…temporal poles for the representation of the mental states of others (Brunet, Sarfati, Hardy-Bayle, & Decety, 2000; Castelli, Happe, Frith, & Frith, 2000; Fletcher et al., 1995; Gallagher et al., 2000; Goel, Grafman, Sadato, & Hallett, 1995; Vogeley et al., 2001); see, for a review, Frith (2001).”
Is adolescence a sensitive period for sociocultural processing? (2014, neutral): “The mentalizing tasks that recruit these regions use stimuli such as animated shapes (Castelli et al. 2000), cartoon stories (Brunet et al. 2000, Gallagher et al. 2000), and written stories (Fletcher et al. 1995) designed to elicit the representation of mental states.”
Autism, Asperger syndrome and brain mechanisms for the attribution of mental states to animated shapes. (2002, background): “In these studies, mental states had to be attributed on the basis of historical knowledge (Goel et al., 1995), stories (Fletcher et al., 1995; Gallagher et al., 2000; Vogeley et al., 2001), cartoons (Gallagher et al., 2000), cartoon strips (Brunet et al., 2000) and animated geometric shapes…”
