Neural Evidence for Syntactic Unification in Second Language Sentence Comprehension: A Time‐Frequency Analysis

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates whether syntactic unification occurs during online L2 sentence comprehension using time‐frequency analysis. We measured the oscillatory power changes in native English speakers and L1‐Cantonese L2‐English speakers while they were reading well‐formed English sentences, syntactically intact nonsense sentences, and random ...

Effects of Lexical Frequency in Predictive Processing: Higher Frequency Boosts First Language Speed and Facilitates Second Language Prediction

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores how word frequency affects verb‐mediated prediction in L1 and L2 speakers, using a visual‐world eye‐tracking task. By manipulating frequency of nouns within subjects (higher; lower) and type of verbs used as predictive cues (semantically restrictive; neutral) in sentences (e.g., The {doctor/surgeon} {opened/moved} the box),

Flummoxing expectations

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Expected utility theory often falls silent, even in cases where the correct rankings of options seems obvious. For instance, it fails to compare the Pasadena game to the Altadena game, despite the latter turning out better in every state. Decision theorists have attempted to fill these silences by proposing various extensions to expected ...

Symmetries of value

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Standard decision theory ranks risky prospects by their expected utility. This ranking does not change if the values of all possible outcomes are uniformly shifted or dilated. Similarly, if the values of the outcomes are negated, the ranking of prospects by their expected utility is reversed.

A Necessary and Sufficient Condition for the Uniqueness of Minimum Spanning Tree

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2019
We develop a fundamental property of min-max transitive closure of a dissimilarity, considered as a fuzzry relation, in connection with its subdominant ultrametric.

Potential placebo bias in current trials of delirium prevention: a network meta‐analysis of 86 randomized controlled trials

open access: yesPsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Aim Numerous network meta‐analyses (NMAs) have reported inconsistent findings on the efficacy of various pharmacologic treatments for delirium prevention in high‐risk patients. A potential confounder was the study design—using a placebo control or standard‐of‐care (SoC) control. We reexamined the incident delirium between SoC plus placebo and SoC alone
