Kapkin, Engin; Joines, Sharon – International Journal of Art & Design Education, 2021
The design brief informs particularly the first phases of the design process; however, there are very limited studies on its role and functions. The current study proposes a framework that relates problem statement types in a design brief to creative outcomes by promoting the priming effect, which is a cognitive phenomenon describing the ways…

Abdulaal, Mohammad Awad Al-Dawoody – Arab World English Journal, 2020
Agreement asymmetry is one of the significant linguistic phenomena that Arab and Western linguists (Ghaly, 1995; Parkinson, 1995; Benmamoun, 1998; Collins, 2001; Dayf, 1986) and Aoun, 1994) have tried to account for within the framework of the Government and Binding theory. They focused upon the number asymmetry in different varieties in Arabic.…

Eline Visser – Language Documentation & Conservation, 2024
Yamdena is an Austronesian language of eastern Indonesia. Although many language materials are available, the language has received very little scientific attention. In this article, I present the Yamdena corpus, which includes glossed legacy materials and original fieldwork. I also give an up-to-date introduction to Yamdena grammar, sketching its…

Huang, Yi Ting; Ovans, Zoe – Cognitive Science, 2022
Children often interpret first noun phrases (NP1s) as agents, which improves comprehension of actives but hinders passives. While children sometimes withhold the agent-first bias, the reasons remain unclear. The current study tests the hypothesis that children default to the agent-first bias as a "best guess" of role assignment when they…

Heather Bruett – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Conceptual representations can be altered to align with the current context given learning and task goals. One cognitive process, known as conceptual combination, allows for a unique perspective for exploring how complex conceptual processing occurs and how this processing influences the underlying representations of concepts. During novel nominal…

Huei-Mei Liu; Feng-Ming Tsao; Chun-Yi Lin; Gwyneth Rost; Ling-Yu Guo – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: The current investigation evaluated the extent to which early noun, verb, and adjective lexicon sizes predicted later grammatical outcomes in Mandarin-speaking children with and without late language emergence (LLE) using a parent report. Method: In Study 1, the parents of 24 Mandarin-speaking children with typical language filled out the…

Fazila Artykbayeva; Aygul Spatay; Abdurassul Raimov; Sholpan Bakirova; Maira Taiteliyeva – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
The purpose of this study was to consider the core of the mental lexicon of the Kazakh language based on the analysis of associative dictionaries, to determine the basic lexico-semantic groups of words and to compare the basic lexical layer with value categories. This study uses the following methods of linguocultural, comparative,…

Rana Abu-Zhaya; Inbal Arnon – Language Learning, 2024
Making adults learn from larger linguistic units can facilitate learning article-noun agreement. Here we ask whether initial exposure to larger units improves learning by increasing the predictive associations between the article and noun. Using an artificial language learning paradigm, we taught 106 Hebrew-speaking participants novel article-noun…

Mostafa Azari Noughabi; Mohammad Davoudi – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
In spite of the proliferation of research studies on vocabulary knowledge, investigating the relationship between self-regulation, vocabulary size, and collocational knowledge among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners has received scant attention. The current study aimed to investigate whether vocabulary and collocation size can explain…

Yangzhao; Liana Mikhailovna Akhmetzyanova – Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2024
The intricate and tricky case of semantic analysis, especially of the enigmatic realm of nouns, the red thread of linguistics and literary exploration. This academic research explores the rich sphere of Russian literature in-depth to determine connections between function and the embodiment of theme through proper names. This research is aiming at…

Yao, Panpan; Stockall, Linnaea; Hall, David; Borer, Hagit – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2022
Using the Visual World Paradigm, the current study aimed to explore whether the mass/count distinction is determined by syntax in Mandarin Chinese, focusing on classified nouns in nominal phrases. By using dual-role classifiers, ontological count and mass nouns, and phrase structures with and without biased syntactic cues we found that the…

Grinstead, John; Kirk, Sadler; Pratt, Amy; Arrieta-Zamudio, Ana – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: We measure typically developing monolingual child Spanish speakers' lexical development with a range of standard expressive and receptive tests. We also measure their comprehension of sentences with the existential quantifier "algunos" "some" to determine their abilities to generate "some, but not all" scalar…

Ní Chéileachair, Fódhla; Chondrogianni, Vasiliki; Sorace, Antonella; Paradis, Johanne; De Aguiar, Vânia – Journal of Child Language, 2023
The current study sought to investigate whether word properties can facilitate the identification of developmental language disorder (DLD) in sequential bilinguals by analyzing properties in nouns and verbs in L2 spontaneous speech as potential DLD markers. Measures of semantic (imageability, concreteness), lexical (frequency, age of acquisition)…

Sauppe, Sebastian; Naess, Åshild; Roversi, Giovanni; Meyer, Martin; Bornkessel-Schlesewsky, Ina; Bickel, Balthasar – Cognitive Science, 2023
The language comprehension system preferentially assumes that agents come first during incremental processing. While this might reflect a biologically fixed bias, shared with other domains and other species, the evidence is limited to languages that place agents first, and so the bias could also be learned from usage frequency. Here, we probe the…
