    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Are different amounts of semantic processing associated with\ndifferent semantic ambiguity effects? Could this explain some\ndiscrepant ambiguity effects observed between and across\ntasks? Armstrong and Plaut (2016) provided an initial set of\nneural network simulations indicating this is indeed the case.\nHowever, their empirical findings using a lexical decision\ntask were not clear-cut. Here, we use improved methods and\nfive different experimental manipulations to slow responding-\n--and the presumed amount of semantic processing---to\nevaluate their account more rigorously. We also expanded\nthe empirical horizon to another language: Spanish. The\nresults are partially consistent with the predictions of the\nneural network and differ in several important ways from\nEnglish data. Potential causes of these discrepancies are\ndiscussed in relation to theories of ambiguity resolution and\ncross-linguistic differences.",
