Lexical and perceptual biases in speakers’ syntactic choices
Discourse Processes. 2024. P. 1–10.
Myachykov A., Scheepers C.
Russell Tomlin’s groundbreaking work laid a foundation for the explorations of the interplay between linguistic and nonlinguistic factors determining structural choice during sentence production. The present article investigates the interplay between two such factors, lexical priming and visual cueing, which may prioritize a particular referent of an event for privileged subject status within a sentence. To this end, native speakers of English read noun names of either the agent or the patient prior to describing a transitive event. Before the event description, an exogenous visual cue directed their attention to the location of one of the event’s referents. Analysis of the proportion of passive-voice descriptions revealed a strong effect of lexical priming with more passives after patient-related lexical primes but no effect of visual cueing. This highlights potential constraints on previously documented visual cueing effects on speakers’ structural choices.

Although epistemic stance in academic discourse has been extensively researched
in linguistics, relatively little is known about diachronic change and variation in its expression
across disciplines, and still less about the grant proposal abstract, a genre produced under strong
promotional pressure. The present paper addresses this gap by testing whether the widely reported trend towards research “hype” is ...

Технологии автоматического распознавания речи (АРР) к настоящему моменту стали базовым компонентом бэкенд-инфраструктуры различных голосовых и когнитивных ассистентов, обеспечивая доступ пользователей к коммерческим сервисам и государственным платформам. Однако из-за неравномерного распределения данных, на которых модели АРР обучаются, острой становится проблема предвзятости моделей при работе с атипичной речью. Цель исследования заключается в оценке качества распознавания и сравнении ...

This study investigates the mental representation and processing of the two types of metaphorical senses in Russian polysemous verbs and adjectives using eye-tracking, sensicality judgment, and semantic clustering tasks. The metaphorical senses under study differ in their semantic proximity to the literal sense, with “proximal” metaphors (e.g. “raise prices”) retaining more semantic components, and “distal” ...

The proactive gain control hypothesis suggests that the global language context regulates lexical access to the bilinguals’ languages during reading. Specifically, with increasing exposure to non-target language cues, bilinguals adjust the lexical activation to allow non-target language access from the earliest word recognition stages. Using the invisible boundary paradigm, we examined the flow of lexical activation in ...

When we speak, selecting the right word takes longer whenever its semantic associates become active simultaneously. Although such semantic interference (SI) activates the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG), its lesions do not systematically increase SI induced by written word distractors. Therefore, whether the LIFG plays a causal role in resolving SI remains an open question. ...
