Psychology of Reading
Reading is a highly complex skill that is prerequisite to success in many societies in which a great deal of information is communicated in written form. Since the 1970s, much has been learned about the reading process from research by cognitive psychologists. This book summarizes that important work and puts it into a coherent framework. The book’s central theme is how readers go about extracting information from the printed page and comprehendi…

This guide accompanies the following article : Charles Clifton Jr and Adrian Staub, ‘Parallelism and Competition in Syntactic Ambiguity Resolution’, Language and Linguistics Compass 2 (2008): 234–250, doi: 10.1111/j.1749‐818x.2008.00055.x Introduction Two metaphors have dominated cognitive psychology throughout its history: ‘activation’ and ‘computation’. Activation (itself metaphorically based on neural firing rate) assumes that representations …
Parsing Coordinates and Ellipsis
In this paper we argue that the human parsing mechanism has available two distinct methods of building syntactic structure. One mechanism, which has been studied extensively, involves building structure in response to the input in a step-by-step, inference-by-inference manner. Building more structure by this means involves more processing cost than building less structure. The second mechanism, proposed here, involves essentially cost-free copyin…
