Cai, Zhenguang G.; Zhao, Nan; Lin, Hao; Xu, Zebo; Thierfelder, Philip – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
In three structural priming experiments, we investigated whether deaf and hearing writers differ in the processes and representations underlying written language production. Experiment 1 showed that deaf writers of Mandarin Chinese exhibited comparable extents of structural priming and comparable lexical boosts, suggesting that syntactic encoding…

de 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;…

White, Katherine K.; Abrams, Lise; McWhite, Cullen B.; Hagler, Heather L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2010
In this experiment, syntactic constraints on the retrieval of orthography were investigated using homophones embedded in sentence contexts. Participants typed auditorily presented sentences that included a contextually appropriate homophone that either shared part of speech with its homophone competitor (i.e., was syntactically unambiguous) or had…
