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.

In a situation when two or more grammaticalization targets in one language are phonologically identical but functionally distinct, neither polygrammaticalization nor accidental syncretism can be ruled out, especially if we are dealing with a language without historical attestations. In the present paper, I present a detailed account of the coexistence of two homophonous grammatical markers ...

This paper presents a first typological study of a particular type of imperative interjections, namely interjections with the meaning ‘here, take it!’ used by a speaker when they ask the addressee to take something from the speaker's hands (often combined with a gesture of giving). The sample of languages is both geographically and genealogically restricted ...

Light verb constructions are complex predicates consisting of a semantically reduced verb and an additional often phrasal element contributing the main predicational content. Although light verb constructions have been identified for various (genetically unrelated) languages, a comparative concept which allows identifying light verb constructions across languages is still missing. The present volume approaches this issue ...

Abstract. In the context of global communication, the construction of national images in the media has evolved from passive reporting to active meaning modulation. Using China as a case study, this research introduces the Semiotic Intensity Approach (SIA) to quantify how news media integrate verbal, visual, and layout resources to either amplify or attenuate specific ...

Rectangularity can be an a priori constraint for the visual system to recover a 3D shape from a 2D image. Two psychophysical experiments (n = 16 each) were conducted to test whether observers are biased to perceive trihedral corners as rectangular and whether this bias is perceptual rather than a response bias. The results of ...

Abstract. This article explores the semantic and cognitive mechanisms governing the functioning of the lexeme “irreversibility” (Unumkehrbarkeit) within contemporary German media discourse covering the crisis in German-Russian relations. The study tests the hypothesis that the use of irreversibility semantics in the mass media serves as a rhetorical strategy intended to reinforce the perception of ongoing ...

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. ...
