Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017 AbstractThe target article's call to end reliance on acceptability judgments is premature. First, it restricts syntactic inquiry to cases were a semantically equivalent alternative is available. Second, priming studies require groups of participants who are linguistically homogenous and whose grammar is known to the researcher. These requirements would

The Effect of Level of Education on Judgments of Grammatical Acceptability
Language and Speech, 1976 From Chomsky's assertion that the deep and surface structures of very simple utterances are highly similar, it follows that judgments of the degree of acceptability of such utterances should approximate judgments of their grammaticality. To test Chomsky's assertion that all native speakers of English share the same deep structure, judgments of the ...

Magnitude Estimation Scaling Judgments of Speech Intelligibility and Speech Acceptability
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1999 20 female students in speech-language pathology provided magnitude estimation scaling responses for the speech intelligibility and acceptability of audio-taped speech samples varying systematically the number of consonant sounds produced correctly. Analysis indicated no significant over-all differences between listeners' judgments of intelligibility ...

Anchoring and Grammar Effects in Judgments of Sentence Acceptability
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1994 This study examined the relation between anchoring effects, as demonstrated in 1992 by Nagata, and grammar-based effects in judgments of sentence acceptability. 35 subjects judged the acceptability of target sentences representing six different syntactic types.

Schemas and the frequency/acceptability mismatch: Corpus distribution predicts sentence judgments [PDF]
Cognitive Linguistics, 2020 A tight connection between competence and performance is a central tenet of the usage-based model. Methodologically, however, corpus frequency is a poor predictor of acceptability – a phenomenon known as the “frequency/acceptability mismatch”.

Acceptability judgments in bilectal populations
Linguistic Variation, 2014This paper investigates the gradient nature of acceptability judgements and grammatical variants in the bilectal population of Cyprus, by comparatively discussing the findings of two recent experiments on (i) exhaustivity effects in Cypriot Greek clefts and embu ‘it is that’-structures (Leivada et al.

Subjective judgments of acceptable error
Organizational Behavior and Human Performance, 1969Abstract Three of four groups of subjects were given problems of the form, “What is X % of Y ?” for which they subjectively estimated the answers. Then, without either the problems or their answers present, they were read a list of the correct answers and were asked to state an interval around each correct answer within which they would regard an ...
