Zhao, Licui; Kojima, Haruyuki; Yasunaga, Daichi; Irie, Koji – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2023
In order to examine whether syntactic processing is a necessary prerequisite for semantic integration in Japanese, cortical activation was monitored while participants engaged in silent reading task. Congruous sentences (CON), semantic violation sentences (V-SEM), and syntactic violation sentences (V-SYN) were presented in the experiment. The…

Danning Sun; Zihan Chen; Shanhua Zhu – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2025
This study examines the referential context effect on second-language relative clause ambiguity resolution by proficient L1 Chinese learners who learn English as a foreign language (EFL) and investigates whether the ambiguity resolution process is constrained by individuals' working memory capacity (WMC). It presents a self-paced reading study and…

Maria Kaltsa; Despina Papadopoulou – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of sentential context on lexical ambiguity resolution in Greek adults and typically developing children. Context and word frequency are factors that can affect lexical processing, however, the role of them has not been thoroughly examined in Greek. To this aim, we assessed sentence context effects in…

Hamedi, Seyyedeh Mina; Pishghadam, Reza – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
Given the fact that the process of engaging and interacting with the text is not only the function of a reader but also the text itself, the current study attempts to examine the role of the type of the word in the attentional engagement. More specifically, the present investigation aims to verify the interplay of sensorimotor information,…

Turco, Giuseppina; Zerbian, Sabine – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
A phoneme-detection task shows that listeners of Sepedi use semantic information in processing but not prosody (Experiment 1). Sepedi is a language with no grammaticalised prosodic expression of focus. Sepedi listeners detected phoneme targets faster when the phoneme-bearing words were focussed (as opposed to unfocussed) but not when occurring in…

Asma Almusharraf; Hassan Saleh Mahdi; Haifa Al-Nofaie; Elham Ghobain; Amal Aljasser – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
The present study examines the impact of implementing video captioning and subtitles on listening comprehension with special reference to the speaker's speed. A total of 64 undergraduate Saudi EFL learners were assigned into six groups: fast speaker with full captioning, fast speaker with subtitles, fast speaker with no captioning nor subtitles,…

Lee, On-Soon – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2023
This study investigates whether statistical learning ability, conceptualized as a cognitive ability to learn regularities implicitly, is a good predictor for L2 learners' online language processing performance. Native-English-speaking adults, as a control group, and native-Korean-speaking adult L2 learners of English participated. They completed:…

Mahmoodi, Mohammad Hadi; Sheykholmoluki, Hamidreza; Zoghipaydar, Mohammad Reza; Shahsavari, Saeed – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2022
To contribute to a better understanding of first language (L1) and second language (L2) sentence processing, this study investigated the relationship between working memory capacity (WMC) and relative clause (RC) attachment preference of Persian learners of English as a foreign language . Additionally, the impact of segmentation of experimental…

Issa, Iyad – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2023
Spelling poses a challenge to Arabic-speaking learners due to the complexity of the morphological and orthographic systems in Arabic. Arabic morphology has been argued to play a critical role in spelling since its morphological operations are built on a system consisting of a root that is interlocking into different patterns of vowels to form…

Yueqingzhou Ma; Norbert Vanek – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
Research on first language (L1) attrition typically focuses on immigrant populations in their second language (L2) environment, yet we know comparably little about L1 attrition in the L1 setting. This study used two lexical tasks to test L1 attrition, a time-sensitive word decision task and a video retelling. Chinese teachers of English vs.…

Rabab'ah, Ghaleb; Kessar, Sara; Abusalim, Nimer – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2023
The prominent role of allophonic cues in English speech segmentation has widely been recognized by phonologists and psycholinguists. However, very meager inquiry was devoted to analysing the perception of these noncontrastive allophonic cues by Arab EFL learners. Accordingly, the present study is an attempt to examine the exploitation of…

de Resende, Natália Carolina Alencar; Mota, Mailce Borges; Seuren, Pieter – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2019
The present study used event-related potentials to investigate whether the processing of grammatical gender agreement involving gender regular and irregular forms recruit the same or distinct neurocognitive mechanisms and whether different grammatical gender agreement conditions elicit the same or diverse ERP signals. Native speakers of Brazilian…

Wang, Jiajia; Zhang, Jijia; Cui, Zhanling – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
As a basic indicator of verbal ability, verbal fluency refers to the degree of fluency in the use of language to convey information. The different components of working memory play an important role in verbal fluency. The inhibiting control mechanism takes place during L2 production processing in bilinguals, which may affect their verbal fluency…

Zhu, Xinhua; Liao, Xian; Cheong, Choo Mui – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2019
Strategy use is a critical competence for academic achievement and problem solving in globalised and information-based knowledge economies. It involves skills such as synthesising information from task source materials and elaborating on interlocutors' viewpoints during integrated group discussions. However, evidence from empirical studies on this…

Mahvelati, Elaheh Hamed – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2020
The present research aimed to investigate how field-dependent and field-independent learners perceived and processed information when they were engaged in an implicit foreign language learning task and to explore differences between them in this regard. The majority of studies in the pertinent literature have adopted quantitative methods to date.…
