Are individual differences in attention control related to working memory capacity? A latent variable mega-analysis.
The current study examined whether there are coherent individual differences in attention
control abilities and whether they are related to variation in working memory capacity. Data …

Linguistic experience affects pronoun interpretation
We test the hypothesis that language experience influences the cognitive mechanisms used
to interpret ambiguous pronouns like he or she, which require the context for interpretation …

Do domain-general executive resources play a role in linguistic prediction? Re-evaluation of the evidence and a path forward
Most current accounts of language comprehension agree on a role for prediction, but they
disagree on the importance of domain-general executive resources in predictive behavior. In …

Testing the validity of a self-report scale, author recognition test, and book counting as measures of lifetime exposure to print fiction
L Wimmer, HJ Ferguson - Behavior Research Methods, 2023 - Springer
We report a study testing the validity of the three most commonly used indicators of lifetime
exposure to print fiction, namely a self-report scale, an author recognition test (ART), and …
