If-conditionals, modality, and Schrödinger’s cat. [PDF]
, 2008 This talk addresses the modal nature of if-conditionals. If-conditionals are seen as bipartite constructions (Fillmore 1986: 196, 1998: 36) which (a) attract modality statistically significantly above average, and (b) show a markedly higher degree of ...

The annotation scheme is based on the notion of epistemic construction and virtually languageindependent. The annotation is rigorously evaluated by means of a newly developed strategy based on the alignment of the entire ...

Mathematical Structures in Computer Science, 2020 AbstractAny modality in homotopy type theory gives rise to an orthogonal factorization system of which the left class is stable under pullbacks. We show that there is a second orthogonal factorization system associated with any modality, of which the left class is the class of ○-equivalences and the right class is the class of ○-étale maps.

Processing time not modality dominates shift costs in the modality-shifting effect [PDF]
, 2019 Shifting attention between visual and auditory targets is associated with reaction time costs, known as the modality-shifting effect. The type of modality shifted from, e.g., auditory or visual is suggested to have an effect on the degree of cost ...
