Lexical access in aphasia

open access: yes, 2018
The present paper aimed to analyze the lexical access in aphasic and control subjects. Data were obtained using a Naming Picture Test (SNODGRASS & VANDERWARTS, 1980). The theoretical assumptions of the Usage-based Models were adopted for data analysis in which it concerns the lexicon organization in networks based on sound and meaning similarities ...

A framework for lexical representation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
In this paper we present a unification-based lexical platform designed for highly inflected languages (like Roman ones). A formalism is proposed for encoding a lemma-based lexical source, well suited for linguistic generalizations.

Children With ASD Do Not Understand Hidden Emotions Before False Belief Attribution

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies concluded that theory of mind (ToM) development is deviant in autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Typically developing children's ability to understand that one may hide their emotion would be acquired before false belief understanding in children with ASD (e.g., Peterson and Wellman 2019), but with contradictory results (e.g ...

Effects of lexical processing deficits on agrammatic sentence comprehension: An eyetracking study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Individuals with Broca’s aphasia show lexical processing deficits, such as deficits in lexical access or lexical integration. Although studies have implicated lexical processing as areas of impairment in Broca’s aphasia, few studies have looked at the ...

Cross-linguistic activation in bilingual sentence processing: the role of word class meaning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This study investigates how categorial (word class) semantics influences cross-linguistic interactions when reading in L2. Previous homograph studies paid little attention to the possible influence of different word classes in the stimulus material on ...

Subcategorical phonetic mismatches and lexical access [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & Psychophysics, 1991
The place of phonetic analysis in the perception of words is unclear. While some theories assume fully specified phonemic strings as input, other theories assume that little analysis occurs. An earlier experiment by Streeter and Nigro (1979) produced evidence, based on auditorily presented words with misleading acoustic cues, that lexical decisions ...

Bilingualism Enhances Metalinguistic Awareness in Autism: Extending the Two‐Dimensional Grammaticality Judgment Task

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bilingualism has been associated with enhanced metalinguistic awareness (MA), the ability to reflect upon language. However, findings remain mixed, and little is known about how proficiency in the most proficient (L1) and second‐best language (L2) contribute to MA, especially in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), who often present ...
