Nikole D. Patson; Tessa Warren; Fabian Hurler; Barbara Kaup – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
To develop theories of how comprehenders extract the message from a linguistic stream, it is critical to understand how they conceptually represent referents. The experiments reported here focus on singular collective nouns (e.g., "committee," "team"), which introduce a single group into the discourse and test whether they…

Bénédicte Grandon; Marcel Schlechtweg; Esther Ruigendijk – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Our goal is to understand how the different types of plural marking are understood and processed by children with cochlear implants (CIs): (a) how does salience affect the processing of plural marking, (b) how is this processing affected by the incomplete signal provided by the CIs, and (c) is it linked to individual factors such as…

Bender, Andrea; Beller, Sieghard; Klauer, Karl Christoph – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
The question of whether language affects thought is long-standing, with grammatical gender being one of the most contended instances. Empirical evidence focuses on the gender congruency effect, according to which referents of masculine nouns are conceptualized more strongly as male and those of feminine nouns more strongly as female. While some…

Spychalska, Maria; Kontinen, Jarmo; Noveck, Ira; Reimer, Ludmila; Werning, Markus – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
It is generally assumed that bare numerals (e.g., "three") have two readings: the "exactly" and the "at least" reading. It has been a matter of debate whether one of these two readings is derived from the other pragmatically. To shed light on this question research has aimed at characterizing the processing demands…

Stegenwallner-Schütz, Maja; Adani, Flavia – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study examines the contribution of number morphology to language comprehension abilities among children with specific language impairment (SLI) and age-matched controls. It addresses the question of whether number agreement facilitates the comprehension accuracy of object-initial declarative sentences. According to the predictions of…

Rzepka, Nathalie; Müller, Hans-Georg; Simbeck, Katharina – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
The ability to spell correctly is a fundamental skill for participating in society and engaging in professional work. In the German language, the capitalization of nouns and proper names presents major difficulties for both native and nonnative learners, since the definition of what is a noun varies according to one's linguistic perspective. In…

Bader, Markus; Meng, Michael – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
Most current models of sentence comprehension assume that the human parsing mechanism (HPM) algorithmically computes detailed syntactic representations as basis for extracting sentence meaning. These models share the assumption that the representations computed by the HPM accurately reflect the linguistic input. This assumption has been challenged…

Schouwenaars, Atty; Finke, Mareike; Hendriks, Petra; Ruigendijk, Esther – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the processing of morphosyntactic cues (case and verb agreement) by children with cochlear implants (CIs) in German which-questions, where interpretation depends on these morphosyntactic cues. The aim was to examine whether children with CIs who perceive the different cues also make use of them…

Stegenwallner-Schütz, Maja; Adani, Flavia – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2020
This study examines the discourse basis for referent accessibility and its relation to the choice of referring expressions by children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and typically developing children. The aim is to delineate how the linguistic and extra-linguistic context affects referent accessibility to the speaker. The study also examines…

Tatz, Joshua R.; Undorf, Monika; Peynircioglu, Zehra F. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
According to the principle of inverse effectiveness (PIE), weaker responses to information in one modality (i.e., unisensory) benefit more from additional information in a second modality (i.e., multisensory; Meredith & Stein, 1986). We suggest that the PIE may also inform whether perceptual fluency affects judgments of learning (JOLs). If…

Misersky, Julia; Majid, Asifa; Snijders, Tineke M. – Discourse Processes: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2019
Grammatically masculine role-nouns (e.g., "Studenten"masc.'students') can refer to men and women but may favor an interpretation where only men are considered the referent. If true, this has implications for a society aiming to achieve equal representation in the workplace since, for example, job adverts use such role descriptions. To…

Bäuml, Karl-Heinz T.; Dobler, Ina M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2015
Depending on the degree to which the original study context is accessible, selective memory retrieval can be detrimental or beneficial for the recall of other memories (Bäuml & Samenieh, 2012). Prior work has shown that the detrimental effect of memory retrieval is typically recall specific and does not arise after restudy trials, whereas…

Vogt, Susanne; Kauschke, Christina – Journal of Child Language, 2017
Research has shown that observing iconic gestures helps typically developing children (TD) and children with specific language impairment (SLI) learn new words. So far, studies mostly compared word learning with and without gestures. The present study investigated word learning under two gesture conditions in children with and without language…

Schaefer, Blanca; Ehlert, Hanna; Kemp, Lisa; Hoesl, Kristina; Schrader, Verena; Warnecke, Clarissa; Herrmann, Frank – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2019
There is a need to provide bilingual assessments and reference data to identify those who struggle to acquire their heritage language (L1) or the language spoken in the country of residence (L2). However, bilingual assessments and data are still sparse. Therefore, the aim was to use a tablet application to screen receptive vocabulary in different…

Lago, Sol; Sloggett, Shayne; Schlueter, Zoe; Chow, Wing Yee; Williams, Alexander; Lau, Ellen; Phillips, Colin – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Previous studies have shown that speakers of languages such as German, Spanish, and French reactivate the syntactic gender of the antecedent of a pronoun to license gender agreement. As syntactic gender is assumed to be stored in the lexicon, this has motivated the claim that pronouns in these languages reactivate the lexical entry of their…
