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 …

This study examined the contributions of verbal ability and executive control to verbal
fluency performance in older adults (n= 82). Verbal fluency was assessed in letter and …

Much research in cognitive neuroscience supports prediction as a canonical computation of
cognition across domains. Is such predictive coding implemented by feedback from higher …

The notion that prediction is a fundamental principle of human information processing has
been en vogue over recent years. The investigation of language processing may be …

Because context has a robust influence on the processing of subsequent words, the idea
that readers and listeners predict upcoming words has attracted research attention, but …

Efficient language processing may involve generating expectations about upcoming input.
To investigate the extent to which prediction might facilitate reading, a large-scale survey …

The authors examined whether people can use their knowledge of the wider discourse
rapidly enough to anticipate specific upcoming words as a sentence is unfolding. In an event …

Reviewed are studies using event‐related potentials to examine when and how sentence
context information is used during language comprehension. Results suggest that, when it …

Several mechanisms of predictive language processing have been proposed. The possible
influence of mediating factors such as working memory and processing speed, however, has …
