Researchers agree that comprehenders regularly predict upcoming language, but they do
not always agree on what prediction is (and how to differentiate it from integration) or what …

Currently, production and comprehension are regarded as quite distinct in accounts of
language processing. In rejecting this dichotomy, we instead assert that producing and …

Neurolinguistic accounts of sentence comprehension identify a network of relevant brain
regions, but do not detail the information flowing through them. We investigate syntactic …

Sentences encode hierarchical structural relations among words. Several neuroimaging
experiments aiming to localize combinatory operations responsible for creating this structure …

Differences between native (L1) and non-native (L2) comprehension have been debated.
This study explores whether a source of potential L1/L2 differences lies in susceptibility to …

A long-standing question in sentence processing research concerns the online parsing
process in clause-boundary garden-path sentences, such as After Mary dressed John …

When forming a dependency between two elements of a sentence, the processor must
retrieve a grammaticality licensed element from memory. Previous research has suggested …

Comprehenders can use rich contextual information to anticipate upcoming input on the fly,
but recent findings suggest that salient information about argument roles may not impact …

This volume brings together cutting-edge experimental research from leaders in the fields of
linguistics and psycholinguistics to explore the nature of a phenomenon that has long been …

Psycholinguistic research shows that key properties of the human sentence processor are
incrementality, connectedness (partial structures contain no unattached nodes), and …
