Naturalistic sentence comprehension in the brain

J Brennan - Language and Linguistics Compass, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
The cognitive neuroscience of language relies largely on controlled experiments that are
different from the everyday situations in which we use language. This review describes an …

Ten years ago, researchers using event‐related brain potentials (ERPs) to study language
comprehension were puzzled by what looked like a Semantic Illusion: Semantically …

Expectation-based comprehension: Modeling the interaction of world knowledge and linguistic experience

NJ Venhuizen, MW Crocker, H Brouwer - Discourse Processes, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
