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 …

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 …

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

Literacy has many obvious benefits: it exposes the reader to a wealth of new information and
enhances syntactic knowledge. However, we argue that literacy has an additional, often …

We review information-theoretic measures of cognitive load during sentence processing that
have been used to quantify word prediction effort. Two such measures, surprisal and next …

Abstract Language comprehenders can use syntactic cues to generate predictions online
about upcoming language. Previous research with reading-impaired adults and healthy, low …

Despite strong evidence for prediction during language comprehension, the underlying
mechanisms, and the extent to which they are specific to language, remain unclear. Re …

There remains little consensus about whether there exist meaningful individual differences
in syntactic processing and, if so, what explains them. We argue that this partially reflects the …

Monolingual listeners continuously predict upcoming information. Here, we tested whether
predictive language processing occurs to the same extent when bilinguals listen to their …

Many studies have demonstrated that listeners use information extracted from verbs to guide
anticipatory eye movements to objects in the visual context that satisfy the selection …
