Overview

Manuel Martín-Loeches is affiliated with the Complutense University of Madrid in Spain. Their research primarily spans the fields of neuroscience and psychology, with significant contributions to cognitive neuroscience and experimental and cognitive psychology.

The scientist's work includes investigations into social psychology, developmental and educational psychology, and also physical therapy, sports therapy, and rehabilitation as subfields of study. The areas of focus in their research feature a variety of topics, including the neurobiology of language and bilingualism, face recognition and perception, language, metaphor, and cognition, as well as action observation and synchronization. Additional research topics include neural and behavioral psychology studies, reading and literacy development, and categorization, perception, and language.

Manuel Martín-Loeches has published frequently in several academic venues. Notable journals where their research appears repeatedly include the Journal of Sport and Health Science, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, Language Cognition and Neuroscience, Cortex, and Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience.

Recent publications reflect a focus on language processing, social context effects, and interventions combining physical activity and cognitive outcomes. Selected recent papers include:

  • Effects of a school-based karate intervention on academic achievement, psychosocial functioning, and physical fitness: A multi-country cluster randomized controlled trial, 2021, Journal of Sport and Health Science
  • Language comprehension in the social brain: Electrophysiological brain signals of social presence effects during syntactic and semantic sentence processing, 2020, Cortex
  • WITHDRAWN: Effects of a school-based karate intervention on academic achievement, psychosocial functioning, and physical fitness: A multi-country cluster randomized controlled trial, 2021, Journal of Sport and Health Science
  • Situating language in a minimal social context: how seeing a picture of the speaker's face affects language comprehension, 2021, Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience
  • The Automatic but Flexible and Content-Dependent Nature of Syntax, 2021, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience

The scientist collaborates frequently with a core group of co-authors, including Francisco Muñoz, Laura Jiménez-Ortega, Pilar Casado, David Hernández-Gutiérrez, and José Sánchez-García.
