    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Native adult speakers of a language can produce grammatical\nsentences fluently, effortlessly, and with relatively few errors.\nThese characteristics make the highly-practiced task of\nspeaking a viable candidate for an automatic process, i.e., one\nindependent of cognitive control. However, recent studies have\nsuggested that some aspects of production, such as lexical\nretrieval and tailoring speech to an addressee, may depend on\nthe speaker’s inhibitory control abilities. Less clear is the\ndependence of syntactic operations on inhibitory control\nprocesses. Using both a direct manipulation of inhibitory\ncontrol demands and an analysis of individual differences, we\nshow that one of the most common syntactic operations,\nproducing the correct subject-verb agreement, requires\ninhibitory control when a singular subject noun competes with\na plural local noun as in “The snake next to the purple\nelephants is green.” This finding calls for the integration of\ninhibitory control mechanisms into models of agreement\nproduction, and more generally into theories of syntactic\nproduction.",
