  • The Real-Time Processing of Sluiced Sentences

    Open AccessJosée Poirier, Katie Wolfinger et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psycholinguistic…2010Cited by: 3References: 33

    Ellipsis refers to an element that is absent from the input but whose meaning can nonetheless be recovered from context. In this cross-modal priming study, we examined the online processing of Sluicing, an ellipsis whose antecedent is an entire clause: The handyman threw a book to the programmer but I don't know which book the handyman threw to the programmer(ellipsis.) To understand such an elliptical construction, the listener arguably must 'fi…

  • Parallelism Effects and Verb Activation

    Open AccessSarah M Callahan, Lewis P Shapiro et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psycholinguistic…2010Cited by: 3References: 27

    This study investigated the processes underlying parallelism by evaluating the activation of a parallel element (i.e., a verb) throughout and-coordinated sentences. Four points were tested: (1) approximately 1,600 ms after the verb in the first conjunct (PP1), (2) immediately following the conjunction (PP2), (3) approximately 1,100 ms after the conjunction (PP3), (4) at the end of the second conjunct (PP4). The results revealed no activation at P…

  • The On-Line Processing of Verb-Phrase Ellipsis in Aphasia

    Open AccessJosée Poirier, Lewis P Shapiro et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psycholinguistic…2009Cited by: 1References: 47

    We investigate the on-line processing of verb-phrase ellipsis (VPE) constructions in two brain injured populations: Broca's and Anomic aphasics. VPE constructions are built from two simple clauses; the first is the antecedent clause and the second is the ellipsis clause. The ellipsis clause is missing its verb and object (i.e., its verb phrase (VP)), which receives its reference from the fully specified VP in the antecedent clause. VPE constructi…

  • The Time Course of Verb Processing in Dutch Sentences

    Open AccessDieuwke De Goede, Lewis P Shapiro et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psycholinguistic…2009Cited by: 2References: 39

    The verb has traditionally been characterized as the central element in a sentence. Nevertheless, the exact role of the verb during the actual ongoing comprehension of a sentence as it unfolds in time remains largely unknown. This paper reports the results of two Cross-Modal Lexical Priming (CMLP) experiments detailing the pattern of verb priming during on-line processing of Dutch sentences. Results are contrasted with data from a third CMLP expe…

  • The Leaf Fell (the Leaf)

    Naama Friedmann, Gina Taranto et al.ARTICLELinguistic Inquiry2008Cited by: 7References: 27

    According to the Unaccusative Hypothesis, unaccusative subjects are base-generated in object position and move to subject position. We examined this hypothesis using the cross-modal lexical priming technique, which tests whether and when an antecedent is reactivated during the online processing of a sentence. We compared sentences containing unergative verbs with sentences containing unaccusatives, both alternating and nonalternating, and found t…
