Despite the literature on the role of input in adult second-language (L2) acquisition and on artificial and statistical language learning, surprisingly little is known about how adults break into a new language in the wild. This article reports on a series of behavioral and neuro
Children appear to be able to learn their native language by exposure to their linguistic and communicative environment, but without requiring that their mistakes are corrected. Such learning from “positive evidence” has been viewed as raising “logical” problems for language acqu
Recent studies on specific language impairment (SLI) have suggested that language deficits are directly associated with poor procedural learning abilities (Kemény & Lukács, 2010; Lum, Gelgec, & Conti-Ramsden, 2009; Tomblin, Mainela-Arnold, & Zang, 2007; Ullman & Pierpont, 2005).
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to differentiate effects of phonotactic probability, the likelihood of occurrence of a sound sequence, and neighborhood density, the number of words that sound similar to a given word, on adult word learning. A second purpose was to determin
Acquiring spoken language involves implicitly learning the statistical relations among language units. In this chapter, we review recent behavioral and neurophysiological findings from our research group that illuminate the relation of this type of ‘implicit statistical learning’
