Garbaruk, Ekaterina S. Garbaruk, Maria Yu Boboshko, Maria Yu Boboshko, Aleksander A. Aleksandrov, Yury Shtyrov, Yury Shtyrov

“…This process is to a large degree mediated by a neurocognitive mechanism known as «fast mapping» (FM) which allows the child to quickly map new words onto neural representations after even a single exposure to them, using context-driven inference. However, the neurophysiological bases of this mechanism are still poorly understood. …”
