Abstract Analyses in vocabulary research should avoid the language‐as‐a‐fixed‐effect fallacy, whereby no statistical evidence is provided to support claimed generalizations beyond the words tested in the sample. Although mixed‐effects models are widely adopted in social sciences to avoid this fallacy, second language vocabulary researchers primarily ...

Abstract Over the past three decades, Van Gelder's dynamical hypothesis has been instrumental in reconceptualizing the ways in which perception‐action‐cognition unfolds over time and in context. Here, I examine how the dynamical approach has enriched the theoretical understanding of social dynamics within cognitive science, with a particular focus on ...
