Prediction in language processing has been a topic of major interest in psycholinguistics for
at least the last two decades, but most investigations focus on semantic rather than syntactic …

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 …

Predictive processing is a critical component of language comprehension, but exactly how
and why comprehenders generate lexical predictions remains to be determined. Here, we …

This paper investigates the role of resource allocation as a source of processing difficulty in
human sentence comprehension. The paper proposes a simple information-theoretic …

Carried out 2 S-paced reading experiments to examine the way in which discourse
information exerts its influence in sentence comprehension. The results show that whereas …

Syntactic parsing processes establish dependencies between words in a sentence. These
dependencies affect how comprehenders assign meaning to sentence constituents …

Abstract discuss sentence comprehension, focusing on the relation between language
structure and language processing at this level of analysis/presents a history of sentence …

This paper investigates the prediction of syntactic structure during sentence processing,
using constructions that temporarily allow a sluicing interpretation in English. Making use of …

Reading time for the second clause of a conjoined sentence was found to be faster when the
clause was structurally similar to the first clause than when the clausal structures differed …
