Syntactic Judgment Experiments

Informal judgments of sentence acceptability have long been the primary source of evidence about grammaticality in syntax, and have been controversial just as long. In the past decade, there has been growing interest in collecting and analyzing acceptability judgments according to the formal protocols of experimental psycholinguistics, an approach sometimes called experimental syntax. This arti...

A Remark on Newest Vertex Bisection in Any Space Dimension

Dietmar Gallistl, Mira Schedensack and Rob P. Stevenson A Remark on Newest Vertex Bisection in Any Space Dimension Abstract:With newest vertex bisection, there is no uniform bound on the number of �-simplices that need to be re�ned to arrive at the smallest conforming re�nementT� of a conforming partitionT inwhich one simplex has been bisected. In this note, we show that the di�erence in levels...

Space and time bisection in schizophrenia

As a test of the idea of a common brain system responsible for representing all prothetic dimensions, schizophrenic patients and healthy participants took part in a line bisection task and two visual temporal bisection tasks, one using durations from 1 to 4 s and another using 30 s long specially designed stimuli (aging faces). Against expectations, schizophrenics showed better precision (small...

Kant on the Rationality of Moral Judgment

Line bisection and rebisection: the crossover effect of space location.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between the bisection test and the severity of behavioral hemineglect and to verify if this test can predict the behavioral hemineglect. METHODS Thirty stroke patients with left hemiparesis were divided into 4 groups according to the Catherine Bergego Scale, which assessed the behavioral hemineglect: severe unilateral neglect (UN), moderate UN, mild U...
