The processing of various attributes of verbs is crucial for sentence comprehension. Verb
attributes include the number of complements the verb selects, the number of different …

This paper examines verb processing during sentence comprehension. We describe two
experiments that assess the interaction between verb complexity and the structural …

This study examines verb processing during sentence comprehension. We describe two
experiments that assess whether or not a verb's representational complexity affects real-time …

We report five experiments that deal with the role of verb selectional restrictions and the
animacy of nouns in the construction and interpretation of syntactic structure. In the first two …

Unaccusative verbs like fall are special in that their sole argument is syntactically generated
at the object position of the verb rather than at the subject position. Unaccusative verbs are …

A functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was conducted to map syntactic and
semantic processes onto the brain. Chinese‐English bilingual subjects performed two …

This paper explores the nature of thematic information made available when a verb is
accessed during sentence comprehension. Following Shapiro, Zurif, and Grimshaw (1987) …

An eye tracking experiment was conducted in order to investigate the role of verb
information in resolving structural ambiguity during sentence comprehension. Reading time …

The interaction between language and action systems has become an increasingly
interesting topic of discussion in cognitive neuroscience. Several recent studies have shown …

Neuroimaging and lesion studies suggest that processing of word classes, such as verbs
and nouns, is associated with distinct neural mechanisms. Such studies also suggest that …
