Who said it—and did it fit the speaker's age? How age-typicality of named objects improves source memory
Memory for who said what can help native and non-native listeners identify critical information for use in conversations. In this study, source memory for object-speaker associations was tested for listeners differing in language background and nativeness. Native and non-native participants of German first heard the voice of a child and an adult speaker name photographs of objects with age-typical characteristics (e.g., a board book for children …
Who said it? Native and non-native listeners' source memory for object-speaker associations
Memory for who said what can help native and non-native listeners identify critical information for use in conversations. In two experiments, source memory for object-speaker associations was tested for listeners varying in language proficiency. Native and non-native participants of English first heard speakers name objects with prototypical color (e.g., broccoli) before they had to indicate who had previously named each object. Speakers either c…
What Fires Together, Wires Together
This study investigated the processing of lexical elements of idioms in isolation. Using visual word priming, spreading activation for idiomatically related word pairs (e.g., pop-question) was compared to that for semantically related (e.g., answer-question) and unrelated word pairs (e.g., trim-question) in two experiments varying in SOA (500 ms and 350 ms). In line with hybrid theories of idiom representation and processing, facilitatory priming…
Context and Literality in Idiom Processing
In a self-paced reading study, we investigated how effects of biasing contexts in idiom processing interact with effects of idiom literality. Specifically, we tested if idioms with a high potential for literal interpretation (e.g., break the ice) are processed differently in figuratively and literally biasing contexts than idioms with a low potential (e.g., lose one's cool). Participants read sentences that biased towards a figurative or literal …
