Changing Structures in Midstream: Learning Along the Statistical Garden Path
Previous studies of auditory statistical learning have typically presented learners with sequential structural information that is uniformly distributed across the entire exposure corpus. Here we present learners with nonuniform distributions of structural information by altering the organization of trisyllabic nonsense words at midstream. When this structural change was unmarked by low-level a...

For the most part, where punctuation has been included in parsing studies, investigators have simply assumed that punctuation, such as commas, can be used to effectively disambigua...
متن کاملThematic roles assigned along the garden path linger.

In a series of five experiments,...
متن کاملHallucinations in Garden Path sentences
Garden path sentences are those in which an ambiguity in the structure biases the reader’s interpretation so strongly toward a wrong interpretation that when a disambiguating word is encountered, the meaning is very tough to recover, if at all possible. In this project, we study sentences that are not traditionally garden path, but that are interpreted as garden path because the initial input, ...
