Loustau, Pierre; Nodenot, Thierry; Gaio, Mauro – Interactive Technology and Smart Education, 2009
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present a computational approach and a toolset to infer spatial displacements as they occur in route narrative documents and report on first experiments done to produce computer-aided learning (CAL) applications and instructional design editors that exploit the inferred georeferenced itineraries.…

Vlugter, P.; Knott, A.; McDonald, J.; Hall, C. – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2009
We describe a computer assisted language learning (CALL) system that uses human-machine dialogue as its medium of interaction. The system was developed to help students learn the basics of the Maori language and was designed to accompany the introductory course in Maori running at the University of Otago. The student engages in a task-based…

Gullberg, Marianne – International Review of Applied Linguistics in Language Teaching (IRAL), 2006
This paper outlines some reasons for why gestures are relevant to the study of SLA. First, given cross-cultural and cross-linguistic gestural repertoires, gestures can be treated as part of what learners can acquire in a target language. Gestures can therefore be studied as a developing system in their own right both in L2 production and…

Franck, Julie; Lassi, Glenda; Frauenfelder, Ulrich H.; Rizzi, Luigi – Cognition, 2006
This paper links experimental psycholinguistics and theoretical syntax in the study of subject--verb agreement. Three experiments of elicited spoken production making use of specific characteristics of Italian and French are presented. They manipulate and examine its impact on the occurrence of "attraction" errors (i.e. incorrect agreement with a…

Schiller, Niels O.; Costa, Albert – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2006
Free standing and bound morphemes differ in many (psycho)linguistic aspects. Some theorists have claimed that the representation and retrieval of free standing and bound morphemes in the course of language production are governed by similar processing mechanisms. Alternatively, it has been proposed that both types of morphemes may be selected…

Engelhardt, Paul E.; Bailey, Karl G. D.; Ferreira, Fernanda – Journal of Memory and Language, 2006
The Gricean Maxim of Quantity is believed to govern linguistic performance. Speakers are assumed to provide as much information as required for referent identification and no more, and listeners are believed to expect unambiguous but concise descriptions. In three experiments we examined the extent to which naive participants are sensitive to the…

Singer, Murray – Journal of Memory and Language, 2006
This study inspected the processes of verifying the current discourse constituent against the referents that it passively cues during reading. It seemed plausible that, after understanding "The customer ate pancakes," the processes of fully understanding "The waiter implied that the customer ate eggs" might resemble those of intentionally…

Norris, Dennis; Cutler, Anne; McQueen, James M.; Butterfield, Sally – Cognitive Psychology, 2006
We propose that speech comprehension involves the activation of token representations of the phonological forms of current lexical hypotheses, separately from the ongoing construction of a conceptual interpretation of the current utterance. In a series of cross-modal priming experiments, facilitation of lexical decision responses to visual target…

Hino, Yasushi; Pexman, Penny M.; Lupker, Stephen J. – Journal of Memory and Language, 2006
According to parallel distributed processing (PDP) models of visual word recognition, the speed of semantic coding is modulated by the nature of the orthographic-to-semantic mappings. Consistent with this idea, an ambiguity disadvantage and a relatedness-of-meaning (ROM) advantage have been reported in some word recognition tasks in which semantic…

Van Dyke, Julie A.; McElree, Brian – Journal of Memory and Language, 2006
The role of interference effects in sentence processing has recently begun to receive attention, however whether these effects arise during encoding or retrieval remains unclear. This paper draws on basic memory research to help distinguish these explanations and reports data from an experiment that manipulates the possibility for retrieval…

de Zubicaray, Greig I. – Brain and Cognition, 2006
Cognitive scientists were not quick to embrace the functional neuroimaging technologies that emerged during the late 20th century. In this new century, cognitive scientists continue to question, not unreasonably, the relevance of functional neuroimaging investigations that fail to address questions of interest to cognitive science. However, some…

Harris, Gordon J.; Chabris, Christopher F.; Clark, Jill; Urban, Trinity; Aharon, Itzhak; Steele, Shelley; McGrath, Lauren; Condouris, Karen; Tager-Flusberg, Helen – Brain and Cognition, 2006
Language and communication deficits are core features of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), even in high-functioning adults with ASD. This study investigated brain activation patterns using functional magnetic resonance imaging in right-handed adult males with ASD and a control group, matched on age, handedness, and verbal IQ. Semantic processing in…

Cleland, Alexandra A.; Gaskell, M. Gareth; Quinlan, Philip T.; Tamminen, Jakke – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006
The authors report 3 dual-task experiments concerning the locus of frequency effects in word recognition. In all experiments, Task 1 entailed a simple perceptual choice and Task 2 involved lexical decision. In Experiment 1, an underadditive effect of word frequency arose for spoken words. Experiment 2 also showed underadditivity for visual lexical…

Pell, Marc D. – Brain and Language, 2006
Hemispheric contributions to the processing of emotional speech prosody were investigated by comparing adults with a focal lesion involving the right (n=9) or left (n=11) hemisphere and adults without brain damage (n=12). Participants listened to semantically anomalous utterances in three conditions ("discrimination," "identification," and…

Lexical Competition Effects in Aphasia: Deactivation of Lexical Candidates in Spoken Word Processing
Janse, Esther – Brain and Language, 2006
Research has shown that Broca's and Wernicke's aphasic patients show different impairments in auditory lexical processing. The results of an experiment with form-overlapping primes showed an inhibitory effect of form-overlap for control adults and a weak inhibition trend for Broca's aphasic patients, but a facilitatory effect of form-overlap was…
