Target-Error Resemblance in French Word Substitution Speech Errors and the Mental Lexicon.

Arnaud, Pierre J. L.

Applied Psycholinguistics, v20 n2 p269-87 Jun 1999

Word substitution errors from a corpus of 2,400 French slips of the tongue were grouped into several categories: contaminational, semantic, formal, and mixed cases; substitutions of syntagmatic codependents also occurred. Semantic and formal substitutions involved a resemblance between target and error. All substitutions exhibited a strong degree of word class and gender identity. (Author/VWL)
