Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract We employed structural priming to test whether targeted exposure to unambiguous form–meaning mappings led to learning of noncanonical word orders, specifically in object relative clauses, among 165 low‐to‐intermediate‐level L1 German L2 learners of English.

Neural Network Models for Word Sense Disambiguation: An Overview
Cybernetics and Information Technologies, 2018 The following article presents an overview of the use of artificial neural networks for the task of Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). More specifically, it surveys the advances in neural language models in recent years that have resulted in methods for ...

Listening, Reading, or Both? Rethinking the Comprehension Benefits of Reading‐While‐Listening
Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract The rising popularity of audiobooks in language learning has highlighted the need to understand their potential benefits in enhancing comprehension and the mechanisms driving these effects. In this registered report, we explored the hypothesis that reading‐while‐listening can enhance lower‐level decoding skills, in turn freeing up cognitive ...

How Flexible Are Grammars Past Puberty? The Case of Relative Clauses in Turkish‐American Returnees
Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract How flexible are grammars after puberty? To answer this, we test returnees: heritage speakers (HS) born in an immigration context who returned to their homeland in later years. If returnees are targetlike, then language is still malleable after puberty; in contrast, if maturational effects are in play, postpuberty returnees will show ...

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract We investigate what is learned from exposure to usage in verbal morphology using an error correction mechanism within an associative learning framework. We computationally simulated how second language (L2) learners would respond to naturalistic input of aspectual usage, characterized by “imperfect contingencies,” given two types of ...

The cognitive role of concept variability
Mind &Language, EarlyView.I present and defend concept variability, the view that concepts can admit of indefinitely many variations and changes in their representational contents without thereby losing their identity. I argue that the variability of concepts is central to their role in enabling cognition, and thus that a concept's content variability is, despite philosophical ...

Heavy‐duty conceptual engineering
Noûs, EarlyView.Abstract Conceptual engineering is the process of assessing and improving our conceptual repertoire. Some authors have claimed that introducing or revising concepts through conceptual engineering can go as far as expanding the realm of thinkable thoughts and thus enable us to form beliefs, hypotheses, wishes, or desires that we are currently unable to ...

Noûs, EarlyView.Abstract It is overwhelmingly plausible that part of what gives individuals their particular legal or institutional statuses is the fact that there are general laws or other policies in place that specify the conditions under which something is to have those statuses.

Word Sense Disambiguation using a Bidirectional LSTM
, 2016 In this paper we present a clean, yet effective, model for word sense disambiguation. Our approach leverage a bidirectional long short-term memory network which is shared between all words.
