15 صفحه اولGraded expectations: Predictive processing and the adjustment of expectations during spoken language comprehension.
The goal of this study was to investigate the use of the local and global contexts for incoming words during listening comprehension. Local context was manipulated by presenting a target noun (e.g., "cake," "veggies") that was preceded by a word that described a prototypical or atypical feature of the noun (e.g., "sweet," "healthy"). Global context was manipulated by presenting the noun in a sc...
متن کاملTickling expectations: neural processing in anticipation of a sensory stimulus.
Predictions of the near future can optimize the accuracy and speed of sensory processing as well as of behavioral responses. Previous experience and contextual cues are essential elements in the generation of a subjective prediction. Using a blocked fMRI paradigm, we investigated the pattern of neural activation in anticipation of a sensory stimulus and during the processing of the somatosensor...
متن کاملThe Dynamics of Spoken Word Recognition in Second Language Listeners Reveal Native-Like Lexical Processing
Models of spoken word recognition in monolingual, native listeners account for the dynamics of lexical activation of intended words and their phonologically similar “competitors,” in terms of continuous, cascaded processing dynamics. Here we explore how the dynamics of spoken word recognition differ for second language listeners. Groups of native Korean speakers (KL1) and native English speaker...
متن کاملLexical tone in Cantonese spoken-word processing.
In three experiments, the processing of lexical tone in Cantonese was examined. Cantonese listeners more often accepted a nonword as a word when the only difference between the nonword and the word was in tone, especially when the F0 onset difference between correct and erroneous tone was small. Same-different judgments by these listeners were also slower and less accurate when the only differe...
