Involvement of episodic memory in language comprehension: Naturalistic comprehension pushes unrelated words closer in semantic space for at least 12 h
Recent experience with a word significantly influences its subsequent interpretation. For instance, encountering bank in a river-related context biases future interpretations toward 'side of a river' (vs. 'financial bank'). To explain this effect, the episodic context account posits that episodic memory helps bind word meanings in the language input, creating a temporary, context-specific representation that can bias subsequent lexical interpreta…
The contribution of learning and memory processes to verb-specific syntactic processing
We exposed specific verbs towards their dispreferred syntactic interpretations. • Primed interpretations were more preferable ∼ 20 min after encountering them. • There is some evidence that this enhanced preferability was present 12 h later. • Verb-bias priming is underpinned by memory systems. • Results are consistent with an episodic context account of language processing. Certain aspects of lexical knowledge can be primed by recent usage, with…
Understanding Caregiver Perspectives on the Management of Individuals With Parkinson's Disease in Thailand: A Qualitative Study
Caregivers' perspectives, knowledge, and coping strategies critically influence the care of individuals with Parkinson's disease. This study explores the experiences, challenges, coping mechanisms, and support needs of caregivers in Thailand. Ten caregivers from the Physical Therapy Centre at Mahidol University participated in face-to-face, in-depth interviews. Thematic analysis identified four key themes: understanding of Parkinson's disease, da…
Contemporary Pastoralism in the Dhofar Mountains of Oman
In the Dhofar Mountains of Oman stakeholders are concerned about the social and ecological sustainability of pastoralism. In this study we used interviews with pastoralists to examine the prevailing drivers of pastoralism and how they are changing. We find that people are committed to pastoralism for sociocultural reasons but also that this commitment is under pressure because of husbandry costs and changing values. We find that capital investmen…
