A case study in underspecification of UG: External Pair Merge of v and T
Syntax, EarlyView.Abstract Previous works have explored the options of Pair Merging R and v as well as T and C, respectively, yielding R‐v and T‐C with various consequences. This paper proposes that v and T can yield the complex head v‐T, an amalgam formed by external Pair Merge.

Who Is Afraid of Love? Adam Smith and the Rational Analysis of Bonding
Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT For Smith, love inextricably involves negative feelings, what this paper calls “bonding cost”. The bonding cost can be moderate. However, it can easily become excessive, taking the form of turbulent emotions, obsessions, vulnerabilities, and ego‐centrism. Hence, it is no wonder that Smith is highly critical of love.

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Modulation of visual attention in the Visual World Paradigm relies on parallel processing of linguistic and visual information. Previous studies have argued that the human linguistic capacity includes an aspect of anticipation of upcoming material. Such anticipation can be triggered by both lexical and grammatical/morphosyntactic cues. In this

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Languages are neither designed in classrooms nor drawn from dictionaries—they are products of human minds and human interactions. However, it is challenging to understand how structure grows in these circumstances because generations of use and transmission shape and reshape the structure of the languages themselves.

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract How should we identify interesting topics in cognitive science? This paper suggests that one useful research strategy is to hunt for, and attempt to resolve, paradoxes: that is, apparent or real contradictions in our understanding of the mind and of thought.
