Syntactic comprehension priming and lexical boost effects in older adults [PDF]
The extent to which syntactic priming in comprehension is affected by ageing has not yet been extensively explored. It is further unclear whether syntactic comprehension priming persists across fillers in older adults. This study used a self-paced reading task and controlled for syntactic and lexical overlap, to (1) discover whether syntactic ...

Syntactic priming during sentence comprehension: evidence for the lexical boost. [PDF]
Syntactic priming occurs when structural information from one sentence influences processing of a subsequently encountered sentence (Bock, 1986; Ledoux et al., 2007). This article reports 2 eye-tracking experiments investigating the effects of a prime sentence on the processing of a target sentence that shared aspects of syntactic form. The experiments

Relation priming, the lexical boost, and alignment in dialogue [PDF]
AbstractThe authors' claim that analogical reasoning is the product of relational priming is compatible with language processing work that emphasizes the role of low-level automatic processes in the alignment of situation models in dialogue. However, their model ignores recent behavioral evidence demonstrating a “lexical boost” effect on relational ...

No looking back: the effects of visual cues on the lexical boost in structural priming [PDF]
Four structural priming experiments investigated the lexical boost effect in structural priming. In two experiments, we tested whether repeating the subject in prepositional object or double object ditransitive structures boosted structural priming. In two other experiments, we manipulated the repetition of the verb.

The lexical boost in structural priming: The syntactic head matters but adjacency does not.
Evidence for head-centered models of structural priming (e.g., Pickering & Branigan, 1998) comes from studies showing that structural priming is stronger when the head of the primed structure is repeated between prime and target than when it is not (the lexical boost effect), whereas the repetition of nonhead words does not affect structural priming (e.

Boosting lexical support does not enhance lexically guided perceptual learning.
A challenge for listeners is to learn the appropriate mapping between acoustics and phonetic categories for an individual talker. Lexically guided perceptual learning (LGPL) studies have shown that listeners can leverage lexical knowledge to guide this process.
