Children's interpretations of general quantifiers, specific quantifiers, and generics [0.03%]
儿童对不定冠词、特指冠词和泛指词语的解释

Susan A Gelman et al.
Recently, several scholars have hypothesized that generics are a default mode of generalization, and thus that young children may at first treat quantifiers as if they were generic in meaning. To address this issue, the present experiment p...
Lexical is as lexical does: computational approaches to lexical representation [0.03%]
词汇研究:词汇表征的计算方法

In much of neuroimaging and neuropsychology, regions of the brain have been associated with 'lexical representation', with little consideration as to what this cognitive construct actually denotes. Within current computational models of wor...
The time-course of speaking rate compensation: Effects of sentential rate and vowel length on voicing judgments [0.03%]
说话速率补偿的时间进程:句子速率和元音长度对送气判断的影响
Joseph C Toscano,Bob McMurray
Joseph C Toscano
Many sources of context information in speech (such as speaking rate) occur either before or after the phonetic cues they influence, yet there is little work examining the time-course of these effects. Here, we investigate how listeners com...
Priming of Early Closure: Evidence for the Lexical Boost during Sentence Comprehension [0.03%]
早期句末现象的启动效应——句子理解过程中的词汇启动效应的证据
Matthew J Traxler
Matthew J Traxler
Two self-paced reading experiments investigated priming in sentences containing "early" vs. "late closure" ambiguities. Early closure sentences impose relatively large processing costs at the point of syntactic disambiguation (Frazier & Ray...
Dynamic information processing states revealed through neurocognitive models of object semantics [0.03%]
基于物体语义的神经认知模型揭示的大脑动态信息加工状态
Alex Clarke
Alex Clarke
Recognising objects relies on highly dynamic, interactive brain networks to process multiple aspects of object information. To fully understand how different forms of information about objects are represented and processed in the brain requ...
Gesturing has a larger impact on problem-solving than action, even when action is accompanied by words [0.03%]
手势对解决问题的影响大于动作,即使该动作伴有语言提示的情况下也是如此
Caroline Trofatter,Carly Kontra,Sian Beilock et al.
Caroline Trofatter et al.
The coordination of speech with gesture elicits changes in speakers' problem-solving behavior beyond the changes elicited by the coordination of speech with action. Participants solved the Tower of Hanoi puzzle (TOH1); explained their solut...

A varied psychological vocabulary now describes the cognitive and social conditions of language production, the ultimate result of which is the mechanical action of vocal musculature in spoken expression. Following the logic of the speech c...
Proficiency and Control in Verbal Fluency Performance across the Lifespan for Monolinguals and Bilinguals [0.03%]
单语者和双语者一生中语言流畅度的表现及掌控程度
Deanna C Friesen,Lin Luo,Gigi Luk et al.
Deanna C Friesen et al.
The verbal fluency task is a widely used neuropsychological test of word retrieval efficiency. Both category fluency (e.g., list animals) and letter fluency (e.g., list words that begin with F) place demands on semantic memory and executive...

We evaluated the hypothesis that listeners can generate expectations about upcoming input using anticipatory deaccenting, in which the absence of a nuclear pitch accent on an utterance-new noun is licensed by the subsequent repetition of th...
A possible functional localizer for identifying brain regions sensitive to sentence-level prosody [0.03%]
一种可能的功能定位器 用于识别句子水平语调敏感的脑区
Evelina Fedorenko,Po-Jang Hsieh,Zuzanna Balewski
Evelina Fedorenko
Investigations of how we produce and perceive prosodic patterns are not only interesting in their own right but can inform fundamental questions in language research. We here argue that functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in genera...
