Processing strategies for scalar implicatures
, 2014 This dissertation investigates the processing of scalar implicatures. I report results from a series of studies using different scalar expressions (modals and quantifiers), which show that (a) scalar implicatures are generally accessed rapidly; and (b ...

Projecting Presuppositions with Scalar Implicatures
, 2019 I present a system which reconciles free choice permission effect with other scalar implicatures. The core idea is to cluster together alternatives which are obtained by similar transformations of the original sentence (e.g., replacement of a given item ...

Scalar implicatures in complex sentences
, 2004 This article develops a Gricean account for the computation of scalar implicatures in cases where one scalar term is in the scope of another. It shows that a cross-product of two quantitative scales yields the appropriate scale for many such cases.

Scalar Implicatures: a Gricean vs. a Relevance Theory Approach [PDF]
, 2017 Griceans have always supported the idea that scalar implicaturesare Quantity-based generalized conversational implicatures (GCI). With the purpose of explaining this phenomenon, they derived their own principles inspired in Grice’s Quantity maxims and ...

Investigation of Scalar Implicatures of Binus University Students
, 2011 Scalar implicatures are based on a range of quantifiers ordered in terms of informational strength, for example in quantity: some, most, all; in frequency: sometimes, often, and always.

Raising and resolving issues with scalar modifiers
Semantics and Pragmatics, 2013 We argue that the superlative modifiers at least and at most quantify over a scale of answers to the current question under discussion (and in this sense, resolve issues), and that they draw attention to the individual possibilities along the scale (and ...
