Kylie L. Anglin; Vivian C. Wong; Arielle Boguslav – AERA Open, 2021
Though there is widespread recognition of the importance of implementation research, evaluators often face intense logistical, budgetary, and methodological challenges in their efforts to assess intervention implementation in the field. This article proposes a set of natural language processing techniques called semantic similarity as an…

Paul Vincent Fusella – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The phenomenon in psycholinguistics known as structural priming happens, during language comprehension, when a prime sentence facilitates the processing speed of a target sentence, when both bear the same syntactic structure. In the present study, two specific passive constructions were investigated, the agentive "by"-phrase and the…

Syrett, Kristen; Aravind, Athulya – Journal of Child Language, 2022
Previous research has documented that children count spatiotemporally-distinct partial objects as if they were whole objects. This behavior extends beyond counting to inclusion of partial objects in assessment and comparisons of quantities. Multiple accounts of this performance have been proposed: children and adults differ qualitatively in their…

Singh, Anisha; Wang, Min; Faroqi-Shah, Yasmeen – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2022
The romanization of non-alphabetic scripts, particularly in digital contexts, is a widespread phenomenon across many languages. However, the effect of script romanization on English reading by bilinguals with English as a second language is underexamined. Guided by the premises of the "script relativity hypothesis" and the Bilingual…

Kubik, Veit; Jemstedt, Andreas; Eshratabadi, Hassan Mahjub; Schwartz, Bennett L.; Jönsson, Fredrik U. – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
When making memory predictions (judgments of learning; JOLs), people typically underestimate the recall gain across multiple study-test cycles, termed the underconfidence-with-practice (UWP) effect. This is usually studied with verbal materials, but little is known about how people repeatedly learn and monitor their own actions and to what extent…

Tso, Ricky Van-yip; Au, Terry Kit-fong; Hsiao, Janet Hui-wen – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Holistic processing has been identified as an expertise marker of face and object recognition. By contrast, reduced holistic processing is purportedly an expertise marker in recognising orthographic characters in Chinese. Does holistic processing increase or decrease in expertise development? Is orthographic recognition a domain-specific exception…

Siu, Tik-Sze Carrey; Ho, Suk-Han Connie – Language Learning, 2022
The present study compared Chinese-English bilinguals and English monolinguals within three age groups to examine whether bilinguals have an advantage in syntactic processing. Participants were tested on morphosyntactic awareness, word-order awareness, artificial syntax learning, and general cognitive abilities. Bilinguals within the three age…

Deumier, Morgan – Ethics and Education, 2022
This paper invites us to reconsider our usual understanding of infancy, no longer as something that passes but as "infantia." The Latin word "infantia," which is not easy to translate, means a lack of speech, a lack of eloquence, and also infancy, babyhood, and dumbness. Drawing on Barbara Cassin's works on the untranslatables,…

Biondo, Nicoletta; Soilemezidi, Marielena; Mancini, Simona – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
The ability to think about nonpresent time is a crucial aspect of human cognition. Both the past and future imply a temporal displacement of an event outside the "now." They also intrinsically differ: The past refers to inalterable events; the future to alterable events, to possible worlds. Are the past and future processed similarly or…

Hazamy, Audrey A.; Altmann, Lori J. P. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Emotional processing allows us to predict our own and others' behavior, communicate our wants and needs, and understand those of others. Thus, deficits in emotional processing can negatively impact one's quality of life. While changes in emotional processing across several domains (e.g., prosody, faces) in Parkinson's disease (PD) are…

Linyu, Zhang; Mansor, Nor Shahila; Ghazali, Akmar Hayati Ahmad; Mengduan, Li; Hua, Fan – Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2022
Translation of news is a new subfield of translation studies. There is stance diversity in news translation because translators influence meaning through translation tactics, and the usual concept of equivalence is inapplicable to this sector. The news headline is the condensed representation of the news material and the primary factor in…

Micir, Ian; Swygert, Kimberly; D'Angelo, Jean – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2022
The interpretations of test scores in secure, high-stakes environments are dependent on several assumptions, one of which is that examinee responses to items are independent and no enemy items are included on the same forms. This paper documents the development and implementation of a C#-based application that uses Natural Language Processing…

Li, Wei; Rohde, Hannah; Corley, Martin – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
How do we decide whether a statement is literally true? Here, we contrast participants' eventual evaluations of a speaker's meaning with the real-time processes of comprehension. We record participants' eye movements as they respond to potentially misleading instructions to click on one of two objects which might be concealing treasure ("the…

Jiang, Hang; Frank, Michael C.; Kulkarni, Vivek; Fourtassi, Abdellah – Cognitive Science, 2022
The linguistic input children receive across early childhood plays a crucial role in shaping their knowledge about the world. To study this input, researchers have begun applying distributional semantic models to large corpora of child-directed speech, extracting various patterns of word use/co-occurrence. Previous work using these models has not…

Key-DeLyria, Sarah E.; Rogalski, Yvonne; Bodner, Todd; Weichselbaum, Amanda – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) may experience chronic cognitive-linguistic impairments that are difficult to evaluate with existing measures. Garden path sentences are linguistically complex sentences that lead readers down a path to an incorrect interpretation. Previous research indicates many individuals, with or…
