Testing contrastive inferences from suprasegmental features using offline measures

open access: yesProceedings of the Linguistic Society of America, 2018
Speakers add modifiers to the extent that they are informative (Grice 1975); studies using the visual world eye-tracking paradigm find that the use of pre-nominal modifiers (short, big) leads listeners to infer the existence of similar objects differing along that same scale (Grodner & Sedivy 2011; Sedivy et al. 1999).
