Eleni Tsaprouni; Christina Manouilidou – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2025
Deverbal formations in Greek, e.g. "mi'razo" 'to distribute' < "'mirazma" 'distributing' are considered morphologically complex lexical items. Previous psycholinguistic studies in Greek and English already highlighted the importance of lexical category and argument structure of the base verb in the processing of deverbal…

Daniel Swingley; Robin Algayres – Cognitive Science, 2024
Computational models of infant word-finding typically operate over transcriptions of infant-directed speech corpora. It is now possible to test models of word segmentation on speech materials, rather than transcriptions of speech. We propose that such modeling efforts be conducted over the speech of the experimental stimuli used in studies…

Simovic, Tiana V.; Chambers, Craig G. – Cognitive Science, 2023
Pronoun interpretation is often described as relying on a comprehender's mental model of discourse. For example, in some psycholinguistic accounts, interpreting pronouns involves a process of "retrieval," whereby a pronoun is resolved by accessing information from its linguistic antecedent. However, linguistic antecedents are neither…

Sílvia Perpiñán; Michael T. Putnam – Second Language Research, 2024
This special issue revisits a classic topic in linguistic theory, A-bar movement, applied to developing and bilingual grammars. We claim that A-bar movement, or filler-gap dependencies, is still the quintessential linguistic phenomenon to illustrate the interaction between the biological endowment, the experience with language (past and present),…

Huili Wang; Shurong Zhang; Xueyan Li; Beixian Gu – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
Embodied cognition holds that one's body, actions, perceptions, and situations are integrated into the cognitive process and emphasizes the fact that sensorimotor systems play a role in language comprehension. Previous studies verified the embodied effect in literal language processing but few of them paid attention to metaphors in embodied…

Lidz, Jeffrey – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2023
A fundamental question in psycholinguistics concerns how grammatical structure contributes to real-time sentence parsing and understanding. While many argue that grammatical structure is only loosely related to on-line parsing, others hold the view that the two are tightly linked. Here, I use the incremental growth of grammatical structure in…

Frank, Stefan L. – Language Learning, 2021
Although computational models can simulate aspects of human sentence processing, research on this topic has remained almost exclusively limited to the single language case. The current review presents an overview of the state of the art in computational cognitive models of sentence processing, and discusses how recent sentence-processing models…

Stephen Kintz; Hana Kim; Heather Harris Wright – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Core lexicon (CL) analysis is a time efficient and possibly reliable measure that captures discourse production abilities. For people with aphasia, CL scores have demonstrated correlations with aphasia severity, as well as other discourse and linguistic measures. It was also found to be clinician-friendly and clinically sensitive…

Tal Ness; Valerie J. Langlois; Albert E. Kim; Jared M. Novick – Perspectives on Psychological Science, 2025
Understanding language requires readers and listeners to cull meaning from fast-unfolding messages that often contain conflicting cues pointing to incompatible ways of interpreting the input (e.g., "The cat was chased by the mouse"). This article reviews mounting evidence from multiple methods demonstrating that cognitive control plays…

Peel, Hayden J.; Royals, Kayla A.; Chouinard, Philippe A. – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2022
It is widely assumed that subliminal word priming is case insensitive and that a short SOA (< 100 ms) is required to observe any effects. Here we attempted to replicate results from an influential study with the inclusion of a longer SOA to re-examine these assumptions. Participants performed a semantic categorisation task on visible word…

Shang Jiang – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
It has been well documented that formulaic language (such as collocations; e.g., "provide information") enjoys a processing advantage over novel language (e.g., "compare information"). In natural language use, however, many formulaic sequences are often inserted with words intervening in between the individual constituents…

Judith F. Kroll; Paola E. Dussias – Language Teaching Research Quarterly, 2024
In the history of psycholinguistics, there are traditional accounts that have been told about language learning and processing. These accounts revolve around the constraints imposed by the age of language learning and by universal principles that are assumed to be natively given. The contribution of Brian MacWhinney and his collaborators has been…

Baggio, Giosuè – Cognitive Science, 2021
Compositionality has been a central concept in linguistics and philosophy for decades, and it is increasingly prominent in many other areas of cognitive science. Its status, however, remains contentious. Here, I reassess the nature and scope of the principle of compositionality (Partee, 1995) from the perspective of psycholinguistics and cognitive…

Ercenur Ünal; Kevser Kirbasoglu; Dilay Z. Karadöller; Beyza Sümer; Asli Özyürek – Cognitive Science, 2025
In spoken languages, children acquire locative terms in a cross-linguistically stable order. Terms similar in meaning to in and on emerge earlier than those similar to "front" and "behind," followed by "left" and "right." This order has been attributed to the complexity of the relations expressed by…

Anastasia Sorokina – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2025
Research has shown that bilingual individuals might encode autobiographical memories in either their first language (L1) or their second language (L2), depending on the language spoken at the time of the event. Although language mixing is a common occurrence among multilingual speakers, previous studies have largely overlooked mixed…
