Adapting pragmatic interpretation in multiparty conversations
Listeners flexibly adapt utterance interpretation based on speaker characteristics, but less is known about how this works in multiparty conversations, particularly for pragmatic inferences like Mutual Exclusivity (MEI) – the tendency to map novel terms onto unnamed referents. MEI may reflect a flexible, speaker-sensitive process or a rigid default. This study tested whether listeners modulate MEI based on speaker-specific referential consistency…
Hedging the truth
Researchers from various disciplines—linguistics, law, and philosophy—have long recognized an important distinction between lying and merely misleading, arguing that false explicit content constitutes lying, whereas false implicit content is merely misleading. Recent experimental work has challenged this distinction, showing that a statement conveying false implicit content may be judged as a lie, even if it is explicitly true. This study offers …
Are Adolescents with a Wider Vocabulary Faster at Inference Making During Reading? Evidence from Self-Paced Reading
This study investigates the relationship between vocabulary knowledge and inference-making during real-time reading comprehension in Spanish-speaking adolescents, addressing an important gap in the literature. A large sample of adolescents (n = 265) aged between 11 and 18 were asked to perform a self-paced reading task, which required integrating words across sentence boundaries. The study compared two conditions: repetition and inference. In the…
Adult Vocabulary Modulates Speed of Word Integration Into Preceding Text Across Sentence Boundaries
An important component of reading comprehension is the reader's capacity to make inferences that can maintain the coherence between propositions within the text. However, the cognitive and linguistic skills that underlie online inference making remain elusive. The authors aimed to clarify the effects of vocabulary and text comprehension on word‐to‐text integration during reading. In a self‐paced reading study, the authors measured participants’ i…

Show me the pragmatic contribution
An utterance such as ‘Show me the large rabbit’ potentially generates a contrastive inference , i.e., the article the and the adjective large allow listeners to pragmatically infer the existence of other entities having the same noun (e.g. a small rabbit). The primary way to measure children's ability to carry out this pragmatic inference has been through tasks that measure infelicity detection. We argue that such studies are not as revealing as …
El pasado que nos pesa
El presente artículo muestra los resultados de una encuesta de opinión pública acerca del 11 de septiembrede 1973 y el Régimen Militar, aplicada a 792 personas de la Región Metropolitana. La muestracontempló participantes de distintas orientaciones ideológicas y de tres generaciones políticas: quienescumplieron 18 años antes de 1973, los que lo hicieron entre 1974 y 1989, y los que llegaron a esa edada partir de 1990. Los resultados confirman que…
