An integrated theory of language production and comprehension.
Currently, production and comprehension are regarded as quite distinct in accounts of language processing. In rejecting this dichotomy, we instead assert that producing and understanding are interwoven, and that this interweaving is what enables people to predict themselves and each other. We start by noting that production and comprehension are forms of action and action perception. We then co...

Evolution and the brain have done a marvelous job solving many tricky problems in action control, including problems of learning, hierarchical control over serial behavior, continuous recalibration, and fluency in the face of slow feedback. Given that evolution tends to be conservative, it should not be surprising that these solutions are exploited to solve other tricky problems, such as the de...

verbs. This proposal has several implications. First, people should envision that nominally abstract actions such as delegating responsibilities, presenting honors, and conveying information involve hand and arm motion. Second, these sorts of sentences should produce interference when the described actions conflict with actual actions people might be performing, as found by Glenberg and Kaschak...
متن کاملLanguage as skill: Intertwining comprehension and production
Are comprehension and production a single, integrated skill, or are they separate processes drawing on a shared abstract knowledge of language? We argue that a fundamental constraint on memory, the Now-or-Never bottleneck, implies that language processing is incremental and that language learning occurs on-line. These properties are difficult to reconcile with the ‘abstract knowledge’ viewpoint...
