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 …

Our ability to remember the past depends on neural processes set in train in the moment an
event is experienced. These processes can be studied by segregating brain activity …

Stimuli are easier to process when context makes them predictable, but does context-based
facilitation arise from preactivation of a limited set of relatively probable upcoming stimuli …

The ability to rapidly and systematically access knowledge stored in long‐term memory in
response to incoming sensory information—that is, to derive meaning from the world—lies at …

To comprehend language, we continually use prior context to pre-activate expected
upcoming information, resulting in facilitated processing of incoming words that confirm …

The functional significance of the N400 evoked‐response component is still actively
debated. An increasing amount of theoretical and computational modelling work is built on …

How do violations of predictability and plausibility affect online language processing? How
does it affect longer-term memory and learning when predictions are disconfirmed by …

Although we often seem to successfully comprehend language in the face of distraction, few
studies have examined the role of sustained attention in critical components of sentence …

Grandparents play a critical role in child rearing across the globe. Yet, there is a shortage of
neurobiological research examining the relationship between grandparents and their …

Little is understood about how people strategically process and remember important but
complex information, such as sentences. In the current study, we asked whether people can …
