Agreement attraction in Serbian: decomposing markedness
(The Mental Lexicon, 2016)
Asymmetric number attraction effects have been typically explained via a privative markedness account: plural nouns are more marked than singular ones and thus stronger attractors. However, this account does not explain ...
Finding identity in the midst of ambiguity: case and number disambiguation in Basque
(Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2020)
Restrictive contextual information has been found to bias syntactic disambiguation, when only one
alternative leads to a meaningful interpretation. The current study tests whether disambiguation
can be influenced by ...
Agreement and illusion of disagreement: An ERP study on Basque
(Cortex, 2019)
Agreement is a syntactic relation involving a controller (e.g., a noun) and a target with matching inflectional morphology (e.g., a verb). Across languages, electrophysiological studies consistently report that the presence ...
Tracing the interplay between syntactic and lexical features: fMRI evidence from agreement comprehension
(NeuroImage, 2018)
The current fMRI study was designed to investigate whether the processing of different gender-related cues embedded in nouns affects the computation of agreement
dependencies and, if so, where this possible interaction ...
Disentangling meaning in the brain: Left temporal involvement in agreement processing
(Cortex, 2017)
Sentence comprehension is successfully accomplished by means of a form-to-meaning mapping procedure that relies on the extraction of morphosyntactic information from the input and its mapping to higher-level semantic–discourse ...
Maintenance cost in the processing of subject-verb dependencies
(APA American Psychological Association, 2022)
Although research in sentence comprehension has suggested that processing long-distance dependencies
involves maintenance between the elements that form the dependency, studies on maintenance of
long-distance subject–verb ...
The Neurolinguistics of the Second Language Morphological System: The Role of Grammar-Related and Speaker-Related Factors
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)
This chapter provides an overview of the neural correlates related to second language morphological processing, by integrating recent empirical evidence coming from event-related potentials, functional magnetic resonance ...
