For more than a decade, views of sentence comprehension have been shifting toward wider acceptance of a role for linguistic pre-processing-that is, anticipation, expectancy, (neural) pre-activation, or prediction-of upcoming semantic content and syntactic structure. In this survey, we begin by examining the implications of each of these "brands" of predictive comprehension, including the issue ...
متن کاملStructure before Meaning: Sentence Processing, Plausibility, and Subcategorization

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 کاملParallel processing and sentence comprehension difficulty
Eye fixation durations during normal reading correlate with processing difficulty but the specific cognitive mechanisms reflected in these measures are not well understood. This study finds support in German readers’ eyefixations for two distinct difficulty metrics: surprisal, which reflects the change in probabilities across syntactic analyses as new words are integrated, and retrieval, which ...
متن کاملPolysemy in Sentence Comprehension: Effects of Meaning Dominance.
Words like church are polysemous, having two related senses (a building and an organization). Three experiments investigated how polysemous senses are represented and processed during sentence comprehension. On one view, readers retrieve an underspecified, core meaning, which is later specified more fully with contextual information. On another view, readers retrieve one or more specific senses...
