Syntactic Processing in Aphasia

Brain and Language, 1995
In this report we comment upon subject selection and methodology, and we describe some recent studies of syntactic processing in aphasia. Our data show that, like neurologically intact subjects, Wernicke's patients reactivate moved constituents (instantiate coreference) at the site of their extraction (even for sentences that they do not understand ...

Speech rhythm facilitates syntactic ambiguity resolution: ERP evidence [PDF]

, 2012
In the current event-related potential (ERP) study, we investigated how speech rhythm impacts speech segmentation and facilitates the resolution of syntactic ambiguities in auditory sentence processing.

Lexicon over Syntax: L2 Structural Processing of Chinese Separable Verbs

Languages, 2023
This study used online and offline tasks to examine whether proficient Korean learners of Chinese can analyze the syntactic structure of separable verbs in a native-like manner during real-time processing.

Contributions of neuroscience to the understanding of syntactic processing

Signo, 2015
This article aims at contributing to the understanding of the nature of language and the human brain by analyzing studies of syntactic processing. Studies involving syntactic processing are still a challenge for neuroscience. However, advanced techniques

Active prediction of syntactic information during sentence processing [PDF]

, 2011
We describe an eye-tracking experiment that tested the effect of syntactic predictability on skipping rates during reading. We found that plural noun phrases were skipped more often than singular noun phrases, in syntactic contexts which induced a high ...

Early occipital sensitivity to syntactic category is based on form typicality [PDF]

, 2010
Syntactic factors can rapidly affect behavioral and neural responses during language processing; however, the mechanisms that allow this rapid extraction of syntactically relevant information remain poorly understood.

Neural correlates of successful and unsuccessful syntactic processing in primary progressive aphasia

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
Introduction Syntax is one of the defining features of human language, yet the functional neuroanatomy of syntactic processing is not well understood. Lesion studies have not revealed robust relationships between damage to specific regions and syntactic ...

Processing empty categories in a second language: When naturalistic exposure fills the (intermediate) gap [PDF]

, 2013
An ongoing debate on second language (L2) processing revolves around whether or not L2 learners process syntactic information similarly to monolinguals (L1), and what factors lead to a native-like processing. According to the Shallow Structure Hypothesis

Code-switching costs from Chinese-English relative clauses processing

Frontiers in Psychology, 2023
IntroductionThe source of costs is a primary concern in code-switching, yet a consensus has not yet been reached. This study investigates whether code-switching during syntactic processing in Chinese-English dual languages results in a cost.MethodsWe use

Rapid Expectation Adaptation during Syntactic Comprehension. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
When we read or listen to language, we are faced with the challenge of inferring intended messages from noisy input. This challenge is exacerbated by considerable variability between and within speakers.
