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 …

Prediction is often regarded as an integral aspect of incremental language comprehension,
but little is known about the cognitive architectures and mechanisms that support it. We …

Do people routinely pre-activate the meaning and even the phonological form of upcoming
words? The most acclaimed evidence for phonological prediction comes from a 2005 Nature …

Current theories of language processing emphasize prediction as a mechanism to facilitate
comprehension, which contrasts with the state of the field a few decades ago, when …

Current theories of language comprehension posit that readers and listeners routinely try to
predict the meaning but also the visual or sound form of upcoming words. Whereas most …

Prediction of upcoming words during reading has been suggested to enhance the efficiency
of discourse processing. Emerging models have postulated that predictive mechanisms …

To make sense of the world around us, we must be able to segment a continual stream of
sensory inputs into discrete events. In this review, I propose that in order to comprehend …

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 …

During language comprehension, we routinely use information from the prior context to help
identify the meaning of individual words. While measures of online processing difficulty …

Two eye movement while reading experiments address the issue of how reading of an
unpredictable word is influenced by the presence of a more predictable alternative. The …
