Comprehending how visual context influences incremental sentence processing: Insights from ERPs and picture-sentence verification.
To re-establish picture-sentence verification-discredited possibly for its over-reliance on post-sentence response time (RT) measures-as a task for situated comprehension, we collected event-related brain potentials (ERPs) as participants read a subject-verb-object sentence, and RTs indicating whether or not the verb matched a previously depicted action. For mismatches (vs. matches), speeded RT...
متن کاملVerb-action versus role relations congruence effects: Evidence from ERPs in picture-sentence verification
Comprehenders can rapidly use both their linguistic knowledge and different kinds of information in visual context during language comprehension. Little is known, however, about the relative time courses and mechanisms by which different kinds of visual information influence language comprehension. We recorded event-related brain potentials (ERPs) as participants read a subject-verb-object sent...
متن کاملVerifying visual properties in sentence verification facilitates picture recognition memory.
According to the perceptual symbols theory (Barsalou, 1999), sensorimotor simulations underlie the representation of concepts. We investigated whether recognition memory for pictures of concepts was facilitated by earlier representation of visual properties of those concepts. During study, concept names (e.g., apple) were presented in a property verification task with a visual property (e.g., s...
متن کاملPragmatic inferences modulate N400 during sentence comprehension: evidence from picture-sentence verification.
The present study examines the online realization of pragmatic meaning using event-related potentials (ERPs). Participants read sentences including the English quantifier some, which has both a semantic meaning (at least one) and a pragmatic meaning (not all). Unlike previous ERP studies of this phenomenon, sentences in the current study were evaluated not in terms of their truth with respect t...
متن کاملIncremental interpretation in second language sentence processing
The degree to which native and non-native readers interpret English sentences incrementally was investigated by examining plausibility effects on reanalysis processes. Experiment 1 required participants to read sentences word by word and to make on-line plausibility judgements. The results showed that natives and non-natives immediately computed the plausibility of the preferred structural anal...
