Currently, production and comprehension are regarded as quite distinct in accounts of
language processing. In rejecting this dichotomy, we instead assert that producing and …

Brains, it has recently been argued, are essentially prediction machines. They are bundles
of cells that support perception and action by constantly attempting to match incoming …

Why our use of language is highly creative yet also constrained We use words and phrases
creatively to express ourselves in ever-changing contexts, readily extending language …

When we read or listen to language, we are faced with the challenge of inferring intended
messages from noisy input. This challenge is exacerbated by considerable variability …

This study provides evidence for implicit learning in syntactic comprehension. By
reanalyzing data from a syntactic priming experiment (Thothathiri & Snedeker, 2008), we …

The Bayesian brain hypothesis provides an attractive unifying framework for perception,
cognition, and action. We argue that the framework can also usefully integrate interoception …

Speech from unfamiliar talkers can be difficult to comprehend initially. These difficulties tend
to dissipate with exposure, sometimes within minutes or less. Adaptivity in response to …

Two visual-world experiments examined listeners' use of pre word-onset anticipatory
coarticulation in spoken-word recognition. Experiment 1 established the shortest lag with …

Why do brains have so many connections? The principles exposed by Andy Clark provide
answers to questions like this by appealing to the notion that brains distil causal regularities …

Clark appears to be moving toward epistemic internalism, which he once rightly rejected.
This results from a double over-interpretation of predictive coding's significance. First, Clark …
