Cloze, Frequency, Surprisal, or Plausibility? A Comparative Analysis of Predictors for Local Ambiguity Resolution

open access: yesCognitive Science, Volume 50, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract This study investigated the cognitive mechanisms underlying the processing of garden‐path sentences by examining the influence of verb/structural bias, cloze probability, surprisal, and plausibility. Using self‐paced reading with yes/no comprehension questions, we analyzed a structurally diverse set of 11 types of ambiguous and unambiguous ...

The role of left and right hemispheres in the comprehension of idiomatic language: an electrical neuroimaging study

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2009
Background The specific role of the two cerebral hemispheres in processing idiomatic language is highly debated. While some studies show the involvement of the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG), other data support the crucial role of right-hemispheric ...

Event Representations for Automated Story Generation with Deep Neural Nets

open access: yes, 2017
Automated story generation is the problem of automatically selecting a sequence of events, actions, or words that can be told as a story. We seek to develop a system that can generate stories by learning everything it needs to know from textual story ...

Modulation of Predictive Coding in Auditory Paradigms of Varying Complexity in Children With Developmental Language Disorder

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 8, April 2026.
Event‐related potentials elicited in children with specific language impairment (SLI) and typically developing (controls), averaged across the F3, F4, Fz, C3, C4, and Cz electrodes. The upper panel displays the comparison between first‐ and second‐order complexity paradigms, averaging standard and deviant trials, with the baseline established previous ...

A Deep Generative Model of Vowel Formant Typology

open access: yes, 2018
What makes some types of languages more probable than others? For instance, we know that almost all spoken languages contain the vowel phoneme /i/; why should that be?

Late Positive Potentials as an Index of “Desirably Difficult” Learning Processes Engaged During Language Comprehension: ERP Evidence From Studies of Domain Knowledge

open access: yesPsychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Electrophysiological studies of language comprehension have primarily examined the kind of information that comes to mind, and when, as people process words and build message‐level understanding. However, less is known about the factors that allow people to commit the message‐level information to memory for future use.

Prediction in SVO and SOV languages: processing and typological considerations

open access: yesLinguistics
In this study, we tested the possibility that different word orders engender different processing preferences. Our key hypothesis was that a head-initial language like English (SVO) allows more prediction compared to a head-final language like Japanese ...

Thematic Relations: A Study on Conceptual Composition in Brazilian Portuguese

open access: yesCadernos de Linguística
This study explores the processing of noun-prep-noun combinations in prepositional phrases in Brazilian Portuguese, focusing on the syntactic-semantic relationship marked by prepositions, implies the semantic sense in which the noun is being modified ...

Semantic Processing in Autism During Speech‐in‐Music Listening: Insights From Congruency and Surprisal‐Based N400 Analyses

open access: yesPsychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding speech in background music is a common real‐world challenge, particularly when vocals compete for linguistic processing resources. This study examined how the presence and intelligibility of sung lyrics influence semantic processing in autistic and nonautistic adults.
