Direct linkde Zubicaray, Greig I.; Arciuli, Joanne; Kearney, Elaine; Guenther, Frank; McMahon, Katie L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Grounded or embodied cognition research has employed body-object interaction (BOI; e.g., Pexman et al., 2019) ratings to investigate sensorimotor effects during language processing. We investigated relationships between BOI ratings and nonarbitrary statistical mappings between words' phonological forms and their syntactic category in English;…

Prior, Anat; Wintner, Shuly; MacWhinney, Brian; Lavie, Alon – Applied Psycholinguistics, 2011
We compare translations of single words, made by bilingual speakers in a laboratory setting, with contextualized translation choices of the same items, made by professional translators and extracted from parallel language corpora. The translation choices in both cases show moderate convergence, demonstrating that decontextualized translation…

Over, David E.; Hadjichristidis, Constantinos; Evans, Jonathan St. B. T.; Handley, Simon J.; Sloman, Steven A. – Cognitive Psychology, 2007
Conditionals in natural language are central to reasoning and decision making. A theoretical proposal called the Ramsey test implies the conditional probability hypothesis: that the subjective probability of a natural language conditional, P(if p then q), is the conditional subjective probability, P(q [such that] p). We report three experiments on…
