ABSTRACTThe present study explored the role of constituent frequency and distractor type in complex word learning. Skilled readers were trained to associate novel letter strings with one out of two pictures, with one picture serving as the target, and the other as a distractor. A facilitatory effect of first-constituent frequency was found only in trials where distractors promoted first-constituent learning, and a facilitatory effect of second-constituent frequency only in trials where distractors promoted second-constituent learning, but not vice versa. Learning occurred in the absence of any pre-existing knowledge about the constituent morphemes and any explicit reference to the constituents during learning. The results point to the important role of constituent frequency and distractor type in novel word learning and provide insights into the mechanisms involved in the implicit acquisition of morphological knowledge in adult learners, that we suspect to be a key aspect of language learning in general.KEYWORDS: Novel word learningconstituent frequencydistractor typemorphological knowledge Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementMaterials, data and analyses scripts have been made available under the following link: https://osf.io/r3cdf/?view_only = c9bd1f5142724e59878d14d5deae8cb0.Additional informationFundingThis research was supported by the center of excellence on Language, Communication and the Brain (France2030, ANR-16-CONV-0002), the Excellence Initiative of Aix-Marseille University A*MIDEX (ANR-11-IDEX-0001-02), and the pilot center for teacher training and research in education (AMPIRIC).

摘要本研究探讨成分频率和干扰物类型在复杂单词学习中的作用。熟练的读者被训练将小说字母串与两幅图片中的一幅联系起来,其中一幅作为目标,另一幅作为干扰。第一成分频率的促进效应仅在干扰物促进第一成分学习的试验中被发现,第二成分频率的促进效应仅在干扰物促进第二成分学习的试验中被发现,反之则没有。在学习过程中,在没有任何预先存在的关于组成语素的知识和任何对组成成分的明确参考的情况下,学习发生了。研究结果指出,词频和干扰物类型在新单词学习中的重要作用,并为成人学习者内隐获取词形知识的机制提供了见解,我们认为这是语言学习的一个关键方面。关键词:新词学习成分频率干扰物类型形态学知识披露声明作者未报告潜在利益冲突。数据可用性声明资料、数据和分析脚本已通过以下链接提供:https://osf.io/r3cdf/?view_only = c9bd1f5142724e59878d14d5deae8cb0。本研究得到了语言、交流和大脑卓越中心(France2030, anr -16- convo -0002)、艾克斯-马赛大学卓越计划(ANR-11-IDEX-0001-02)和教育教师培训和研究试点中心(AMPIRIC)的支持。该研究由ANR拨款(MORPHEME ANR-15- fral -0003-01)直接资助,并获得了ERC拨款742141的额外支持。EB得到了FYSSEN奖学金的支持。

ABSTRACTEmpirical studies have found a processing asymmetry between Chinese subject-extracted relative clauses (SRCs) and object-extracted relative clauses (ORCs). Still, there is no consensus on how this SRC-ORC asymmetry occurs. Thus, aiming to elucidate how the neural activity, in the forms of both event-related potentials (ERPs) and brain oscillations (i.e. event-related synchronisation/desynchronisation, ERS/ERD), attuned to sentences with different levels of processing difficulty, we conducted an electroencephalography (EEG) study to examine the comprehension of Chinese SRCs and ORCs. The results showed an N400 and a P600 effect when comparing SRCs and ORCs. Simultaneously, delta ERS was associated with N400 during the processing of both types of relative clauses and theta ERS with P600 during the processing of SRCs. By incorporating the ERP and ERS indexes, we propose that the dissociation between the integration and retrieval effort involved in sentence comprehension may account for the processing asymmetry between sentences.KEYWORDS: Event-related potentials (ERPs)delta/theta synchronisationmemory retrievalintegrationsentence comprehension Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by Shanghai Municipal Education Commission and Shanghai Educational Development Foundation [grant number: WBH4307002].
摘要:研究发现汉语主语提取关系分句与宾语提取关系分句之间存在加工不对称性。尽管如此,对于SRC-ORC不对称是如何发生的还没有达成共识。因此,为了阐明神经活动如何以事件相关电位(ERPs)和脑振荡(即事件相关同步/去同步,ERS/ERD)的形式与不同处理难度的句子相协调,我们进行了脑电图(EEG)研究,以检验汉语SRCs和ORCs的理解程度。结果表明,在比较src和ORCs时,存在N400和P600效应。同时,在处理两种类型的关系分句时,δ ERS与N400相关,在处理SRCs时,δ ERS与P600相关。通过结合ERP和ERS指标,我们提出句子理解中整合和检索努力之间的分离可能是句子加工不对称的原因。关键词:事件相关电位(ERPs)delta/theta同步记忆检索整合句子理解披露陈述作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。本研究得到上海市教委和上海市教育发展基金会的支持[资助号:WBH4307002]。

ABSTRACTShared attention across individuals is a crucial component of joint activities, modulating how we perceive relevant information. In this study, we explored shared attention in language production and memory across separate representation levels. In a shared go/no-go task, pairs of participants responded to objects displayed on a screen: One participant reacted according to the animacy of the object (semantic task), while her partner reacted to the first letter/phoneme (phoneme-monitoring task). Objects could require a response from either one participant, both participants or nobody. Only participants assigned to the phoneme-monitoring task were faster at responding to the joint than to alone trials. However, results from a memory recall test showed that for both partners recall was more accurate for those items to which the partner responded and for jointly responded items. Overall, our findings suggest that partners co-represent each other’s language features even when they do not engage in the same task.KEYWORDS: Shared attentionco-representationjoint memory effectcollective-prioritisation effectlanguage production AcknowledgmentsWe are grateful to Noel Nguyen for his advices and his support.

摘要个体间的共同关注是共同活动的重要组成部分,它调节着我们对相关信息的感知。在本研究中,我们探讨了不同表征水平下语言产生和记忆的共同注意。在一个共享的“走”/“不走”任务中,成对的参与者对屏幕上显示的物体做出反应:一个参与者根据物体的活力做出反应(语义任务),而她的搭档则根据第一个字母/音素做出反应(音素监测任务)。对象可能需要来自一个参与者、两个参与者或任何人的响应。只有被分配到音素监测任务的参与者对联合试验的反应比单独试验的反应快。然而,记忆回忆测试的结果表明,对于伴侣双方来说,对自己回应的项目和共同回应的项目的回忆更加准确。总的来说,我们的研究结果表明,即使他们不参与相同的任务,合作伙伴也会共同代表彼此的语言特征。关键词:共同注意、共同表征、联合记忆效应、集体优先效应、语言生成感谢Noel Nguyen的建议和支持。我们也非常感谢Xavier Alario在项目最初阶段的监督。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。本研究得到了Marie Curie Actions (FP7-PEOPLE 2014-2016, REA协议号623845)、Laboratoire Parole et Language和Aix-Marseille University - A*MIDEX卓越计划(语言、交流和大脑研究所)的资金支持。G.C.是由艾克斯-马赛大学356博士学院资助的。C.B.由Ramon y Cajal研究项目(RYC2018-026174-I)资助。E.R.项目得到了法国政府的支持,由法国国家研究局(ANR)通过一项研究补助金(ANR-18- ce28 -0013)进行管理。K.S.得到了ANR的研究资助(ANR-18- fral -0013-01)。

ABSTRACTWhile Mismatch Negativity (MMN) and P300 have been found to correlate with the processing of acoustic and phonological information involved in speech perception, there is controversy surrounding how these two components index acoustic and/or phonological processing at pre-attentive and attentive stages. The current study employed both passive and active oddball paradigms to examine neural responses to lexical tones at the two stages in Cantonese speakers, using the paradigm of categorical perception (CP) where the between- and within-category deviants share the same acoustic distance from the standard but differ in the involvement of phonological information. We failed to observe a CP effect in P300, which might indicate that this component doesn’t necessarily index phonological processing, while MMN does, as reflected by the finding of a greater MMN amplitude elicited from the between-category than within-category deviant. Nevertheless, phonological processing might be overridden by acoustic processing among participants who were sensitive to pitch.KEYWORDS: Acoustic informationphonological informationmismatch negativityP300categorical tone perception Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis study was supported by a grant from the Research Grants Council of Hong Kong (GRF: 15610321).
摘要失配负性(MMN)和P300被发现与语音感知中涉及的声学和语音信息加工相关,但关于这两个成分如何在注意前和注意阶段指示声学和/或语音加工存在争议。本研究采用主动和被动两种模式,采用范畴感知范式,研究了粤语使用者在两个阶段对词汇语调的神经反应。范畴感知范式中,范畴内和范畴间偏差与标准语音距离相同,但涉及的语音信息不同。我们未能在P300中观察到CP效应,这可能表明该成分不一定指示语音加工,而MMN则可以,这反映在发现类别间偏差比类别内偏差引起的MMN振幅更大。然而,在对音高敏感的参与者中,语音加工可能被声学加工所覆盖。关键词:声学信息语音信息错配否定性300分类语气感知披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。本研究由香港研究资助局拨款(GRF: 15610321)资助。

ABSTRACTAlthough there is compelling evidence for cascading activation in adult lexical planning, there is little research on how and when cascaded processing develops. We use a picture naming task to compare word planning in adults and five-year-old children. We manipulated image codability (name agreement) and name frequency, factors that affect lexical selection and phonological encoding, respectively. These factors had qualitatively similar influences on naming response time in both populations, suggesting similar underlying planning processes. Critically, we found an under-additive interaction between codability and frequency such that the frequency effect was attenuated when name agreement was low. This interaction generalises across experiments and languages and can be simulated in a planning architecture in which phonological forms become activated before lexical selection is complete. These results provide evidence for cascaded processing at an earlier age than previous studies, suggesting that informational cascades are a fundamental property of the production architecture.KEYWORDS: Language productioncascaded processingword planningname agreementcodabilityfrequencylanguage acquisition AcknowledgementsThank you to Parker Robbins and Benazir Neree for their assistance with data collection and processing as well as to Alfonso Caramazza and Joshua Cetron for sharing their thoughts on the project and analyses.

尚不清楚我们是否应该期望在有序尺度上的频率测量显示与研究1.9中使用的频率评分测量相同的H分数相互作用。正如一位评论者指出的那样,在某些假设下,级联激活实际上可能预测过度加性相互作用。特别是,如果(i)候选词汇激活后语音编码就开始了,(ii)与不同候选词汇相关的音素相互竞争(但由同一候选词汇激活的音素不竞争),(iii)语音竞争取决于频率(高频竞争导致更大的竞争),以及(iv)在名称一致性低的情况下,可能会出现过度加和性。产生的名称相对于替代名称的频率优势对于高频词比低频词更大。在这些假设下,语音编码过程中的竞争对高频、低可编码性项目的影响最小,对低频、低可编码性项目的影响最大,从而导致过度加性相互作用。我们的数据与这个假设不一致。本研究得到了哈佛大学FAS心理学的内部资助。

ABSTRACT We investigated prediction skills of adult heritage speakers and the role of written and spoken language experience on predictive processing. Using visual world eye-tracking, we focused on predictive use of case-marking cues in verb-medial and verb-final sentences in Turkish with adult Turkish heritage speakers (N = 25) and Turkish monolingual speakers (N = 24). Heritage speakers predicted in verb-medial sentences (when verb-semantic and case-marking cues were available), but not in verb-final sentences (when only case-marking cues were available) while monolinguals predicted in both. Prediction skills of heritage speakers were modulated by their spoken language experience in Turkish and written language experience in both languages. Overall, these results strongly suggest that verb-semantic information is needed to scaffold the use of morphosyntactic cues for prediction in heritage speakers. The findings also support the notion that both spoken and written language experience play an important role in predictive spoken language processing.

The interpretation of novel noun-noun compounds (NNCs, e.g. “devil salary”) requires the combination of nouns in the absence of syntactic cues, an interesting facet of complex meaning creation. Here we examine unconstrained interpretations of a large set of novel NNCs, to investigate how NNC constituents are combined into novel complex meanings. The data show that words’ lexical-semantic features (e.g. material, agentivity, imageability, semantic similarity) differentially contribute to the grammatical relations and the semantics of NNC interpretations. Further, we demonstrate that passive interpretations incur higher processing cost (longer interpretation times and more eye-movements) than active interpretations. Finally, we show that large language models (GPT-2, BERT, RoBERTa) can predict whether a NNC is interpretable by human participants and estimate differences in processing cost, but do not exhibit sensitivity to more subtle grammatical differences. The experiments illuminate how humans can use lexical-semantic features to interpret NNCs in the absence of explicit syntactic information.
解释新奇的名-名复合词(nnc,如“devil salary”)需要在没有句法线索的情况下将名词组合起来,这是复杂意义创造的一个有趣方面。在这里,我们研究了大量新颖NNC的无约束解释,以研究NNC成分如何组合成新的复杂含义。数据表明,词的词汇语义特征(如材料性、能动性、可想象性、语义相似性)对NNC解释的语法关系和语义有不同的影响。此外,我们证明了被动口译比主动口译产生更高的处理成本(更长的口译时间和更多的眼球运动)。最后,我们发现大型语言模型(GPT-2、BERT、RoBERTa)可以预测NNC是否可以被人类参与者解释,并估计处理成本的差异,但对更微妙的语法差异不敏感。这些实验阐明了人类如何在缺乏明确句法信息的情况下使用词汇语义特征来解释nnc。

Fast structural priming of grammatical decisions during reading 阅读过程中语法决策的快速结构启动

ABSTRACT In two grammatical decision experiments, we used fast-priming as a novel method for uncovering the syntactic processes involved in written sentence comprehension while limiting the influence of strategic processes. Targets were sequences of four words that could be grammatically correct or not. Targets (e.g. they see the moon) were preceded by the brief (170 ms) presentation of four types of prime: (1) same syntactic structure / same verb (you see a friend); (2) same structure / different verb (she writes a book); (3) different structure / same verb (he sees him now); or (4) different structure / different verb (stay in our hotel). Same structure primes facilitated decisions to grammatical targets in error rates, and this effect did not significantly interact with the facilitatory effect of a shared verb. These results provide evidence for structural priming of sentence reading in conditions that greatly limit any role for strategic processing.

Incremental sentence processing is guided by a preference for agents: EEG evidence from Basque 增量句子处理是由代理人的偏好引导:来自巴斯克语的脑电图证据
IF 2.3 3区 医学 Q2 AUDIOLOGY & SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGY Pub Date : 2023-08-30 DOI: 10.1080/23273798.2023.2250023

ABSTRACT Comprehenders across languages tend to interpret role-ambiguous arguments as the subject or the agent of a sentence during parsing. However, the evidence for such a subject/agent preference rests on the comprehension of transitive, active-voice sentences where agents/subjects canonically precede patients/objects. The evidence is thus potentially confounded by the canonical order of arguments. Transitive sentence stimuli additionally conflate the semantic agent role and the syntactic subject function. We resolve these two confounds in an experiment on the comprehension of intransitive sentences in Basque. When exposed to sentence-initial role-ambiguous arguments, comprehenders preferentially interpreted these as agents and had to revise their interpretation when the verb disambiguated to patient-initial readings. The revision was reflected in an N400 component in ERPs and a decrease in power in the alpha and lower beta bands. This finding suggests that sentence processing is guided by a top-down heuristic to interpret ambiguous arguments as agents, independently of word order and independently of transitivity.

Effects of referential structure on pronoun interpretation 指称结构对代词解释的影响
IF 2.3 3区 医学 Q2 AUDIOLOGY & SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGY Pub Date : 2023-08-24 DOI: 10.1080/23273798.2023.2250481

ABSTRACT Pronoun interpretation is guided by various factors. While most previously-investigated factors involve properties occurring before the pronoun, less attention has been paid to properties of the pronoun-containing clause. We investigate whether pronoun interpretation is influenced by the referential structure of the pronoun-containing clause (i.e. whether another referent from the preceding clause is mentioned), which contributes to discourse coherence. We report three experiments showing referential structure effects: whether subject-position pronouns are ultimately interpreted as referring to the preceding subject or object depends on whether the clause contains another pronoun (e.g. she called Lisa vs. she called her). More specifically, subject-position pronouns exhibit a stronger object preference when only one of the prior antecedents is mentioned, compared to when both are mentioned. We show that this effect is separate from effects of verb semantics and cannot be reduced to semantic or syntactic parallelism effects. Implications for models of pronoun resolution are discussed.
