Cokal, Derya; Filik, Ruth; Sturt, Patrick; Poesio, Massimo – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2023
Corpus evidence suggests that in contexts in which the presence of multiple antecedents might favor plural reference, the disadvantage observed for singular reference may disappear if the potential antecedents are combined in a group-like plural entity. We examined the relative salience of antecedents in conditions where the context either made a…

Sturt, Patrick – Cognition, 2007
Participant's eye-movements were recorded while they read locally ambiguous sentences. Evidence for processing difficulty was found when the interpretation of the initially preferred misanalysis clashed with that of the globally correct analysis, demonstrating the persistence of the earlier interpretation. Processing difficulty associated with the…

Poesio, Massimo; Sturt, Patrick; Artstein, Ron; Filik, Ruth – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2006
Much experimental work in psycholinguistics suggests that fully specified syntactic and semantic interpretations are obtained incrementally. The finding that interpretation takes place incrementally is very robust and underlies our own view of sentence processing as well; however, most of this work tends to test very simple interpretive judgments…

Sturt, Patrick; Crocker, Matthew W. – Language and Cognitive Processes, 1996
Demonstrates how the definition of "simple attachment" and "tree lowering," operations related to the grammatical composition operations of "substitution" and "adjunction" in the Tree Adjoining Grammar formalism, yields a parser more constrained than previous description theory based models. The article…
