This chapter focuses on structural processing, and examines the role of underlying or
canonical word order (or, more specifically, grammatical role order) on structural processing …

Carried out 2 S-paced reading experiments to examine the way in which discourse

A crucial part of understanding a sentence is to construct its syntactic structure. Without this,
it would be very difficult for language users to determine that sentences with different word …

The study investigated the influence of a syntactically biasing context sentence on the
processing of syntactically complex object-first relative clauses and even more complex …

Manipulating the semantic relatedness of noun and verb targets in contexts where they are

Previous psycholinguistic research has shown that a variety of contextual factors can
influence the interpretation of syntactically ambiguous structures, but psycholinguistic …

Real-time language comprehension is a principal cognitive ability and thereby relates to
central properties of the human cognitive architecture. Yet how do the presumably universal …

In this chapter, the application of a functionalist model of sentence processing to the task of
simultaneous interpretation is examined. It also explores how simultaneous interpretation …
