Resolving Conflicts Between Syntax and Plausibility in Sentence Comprehension
Comprehension of plausible and implausible object- and subject-relative clause sentences with and without prepositional phrases was examined. Undergraduates read each sentence then evaluated a statement as consistent or inconsistent with the sentence. Higher acceptance of consistent than inconsistent statements indicated reliance on syntactic analysis. Higher acceptance of plausible than implau...
متن کاملStructure before Meaning: Sentence Processing, Plausibility, and Subcategorization
Natural language processing is a fast and automatized process. A crucial part of this process is parsing, the online incremental construction of a syntactic structure. The aim of this study was to test whether a wh-filler extracted from an embedded clause is initially attached as the object of the matrix verb with subsequent reanalysis, and if so, whether the plausibility of such an attachment ...
متن کاملNeural Correlates of Plausibility, 1 Running Head: Neural Correlates of Plausibility Neural Correlates of Semantic Plausibility in Sentence Comprehension in High and Low Working Memory Groups
The neural correlates of semantic plausibility during sentence comprehension were investigated in high and low working memory groups using event-related fMRI. Sentences rated as plausible, implausible, or anomalous were presented followed by a comprehension question. Comprehension was more difficult for sentences with lower plausibility in behavioral measures, and increased BOLD signal was foun...

ions are being discussed in other chapters in this book (Barsalou & WiemerHastings, this volume; Gibbs, this volume; Prinz, this volume). 6.0 Conclusion and outlook We started this chapter by comparing two perspectives on cognition in general and on language comprehension in particular. According to the traditional perspective, language comprehension involves the activation and integration of d...
متن کاملPredictability, plausibility, and two late ERP positivities during written sentence comprehension.
Van Petten and Luka's (2012, International Journal of Psychophysiology, 83(2), 176-190) literature survey of late positive ERP components elicited by more or less predictable words during sentence processing led them to propose two topographically and functionally distinct positivities: a parietal one associated with semantically incongruent words related to semantic reanalysis and a frontal on...
