Interactive structure building in sentence production
2024, Cognitive PsychologyProducing filler-gap dependencies: Structural priming evidence for two distinct combinatorial processes in production
2022, Journal of Memory and LanguageCitation Excerpt :Structure-building processes in a reading-aloud task are thus arguably similar to those during normal comprehension. In contrast, structure-building processes in sentence recall are arguably similar to those during production, because the sentence recall task likely involves the regeneration of sentences from conceptual representations (V. Ferreira, 2003; McDonald, Bock, & Kelly, 1993; Potter & Lombardi, 1990; 1998 among others). Under these assumptions, the structural priming effects observed in the current study reflect priming from structural representations built from form-based inputs to structural representations build from conceptual inputs.
The extended present: an informational context for perception
2021, Acta PsychologicaCitation Excerpt :In fact, the originally presented form was regenerated on the majority of occasions. Potter and Lombardi (1998) found support for the hypothesis that the presented syntax exerts a priming effect, essentially increasing the transient accessibility of the presented structure from LTM relative to the unpresented structure. Thus, their research is consistent with the hypothesis that syntactic structure of sentences previous to the current one is not retained in WM, but that it can be accurately regenerated on short time scales from available information about semantics, the verb in the sentence, and the priming effect of the presented sentence.
