{ "pk": 25650, "title": "The perceptual foundation of linguistic context", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Context plays a ubiquitous role in language processing. For\nthe most part, work in language processing investigates the\neffects of context without investigating questions about what\ndetermines a context. For example, interpretation of any referential\nexpression must take into account the notion of a referential\ndomain. Here we investigate the influence of perceptual\ncues in establishing a referential domain, or linguistic context.\nWe demonstrate that people use perceptual cues to establish a\nlinguistic context; the influence of perceptual cues is gradient\nwith respect to cue magnitude; and the contribution of a perceptual\ncue in constructing a linguistic context is not an effect\nof attention or salience. We provide these results as a first step\ntoward developing a formal model for the establishment of linguistic\ncontext.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "language processing; reference resolution; linguistic\ncontext" } ], "section": "Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/464856tb", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Francis", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Mollica", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Rochester", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Steven", "middle_name": "T", "last_name": "Piantadosi", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Rochester", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Michael", "middle_name": "K", "last_name": "Tanenhaus", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Rochester", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2015-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25650/galley/15274/download/" } ] }
