{ "pk": 31320, "title": "Another Context Effect in Sentence Processing: Implications for the Principle of Referential Support", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "A major goal of psycholinguistics is to determine what sources of information are used immediately in language comprehension, and what sources come into play at later stages. Prepositional phrase attach-ment ambiguities were used in a self-paced reading task to compare contexts that contained one or two possible referents for the verb phrase (VP) in the target sentence. With one set of sentences, a VP-attachment preference was observed in the 2-VP-referent context, but not in the 1-VP-referent context. With another set of sentences, no effect of context was observed. This result falls outside of the scope of the principle of referential support (Altmann & Steedman, 1988) as currently formulated. It suggests that a similar but more broadly-based theory is required.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Talks", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4rb2718f", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Michael", "middle_name": "J.", "last_name": "Spivey-Knowlton", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Rochester", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1992-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/31320/galley/22389/download/" } ] }
