Failure to replicate talker-specific syntactic adaptation
Sentence understanding is affected by recent experience. An important open question is whether this reflects adaptation to the statistics of the input. Support for this hypothesis comes from the recent finding that listeners can simultaneously learn and maintain the syntactic statistics of multiple talkers (Kamide, 2012). We attempt—and fail—to replicate this finding. This calls into questions ...
متن کاملRapid Expectation Adaptation during Syntactic Comprehension
When we read or listen to language, we are faced with the challenge of inferring intended messages from noisy input. This challenge is exacerbated by considerable variability between and within speakers. Focusing on syntactic processing (parsing), we test the hypothesis that language comprehenders rapidly adapt to the syntactic statistics of novel linguistic environments (e.g., speakers or genr...
متن کاملSyntactic Adaptation in Language Comprehension
In this paper we investigate the manner in which the human language comprehension system adapts to shifts in probability distributions over syntactic structures, given experimentally controlled experience with those structures. We replicate a classic reading experiment, and present a model of the behavioral data that implements a form of Bayesian belief update over the course of the experiment.
متن کاملIs there syntactic adaptation in language comprehension?
In this paper we investigate the manner in which the human language comprehension system adapts to shifts in probability distributions over syntactic structures, given experimentally controlled experience with those structures. We replicate a classic reading experiment, and present a model of the behavioral data that implements a form of Bayesian belief update over the course of the experiment.
متن کاملPhonological priming: Failure to replicate in the rapid naming task
In two experiments, we examined the use of phonological information in naming in English. In both experiments, a priming technique was used. Primes and targets were both graphemically and phonemically similar, only phonemically similar, or unrelated. The results of Experiment 1 did not reveal a significant priming effect. The same design and materials were used in Experiment 2, but this time, t...
