Individual Differences in Sentence Processing
Language comprehension is a complex task that involves constructing an incremental interpretation of a rapid sequence of incoming words before they fade from immediate memory, and yet the task is typically carried out effi ciently and with little conscious effort. Given the complexity associated with extracting intended meaning from an incoming linguistic signal, it is perhaps not surprising th...
متن کاملERPs reveal individual differences in morphosyntactic processing.
We investigated individual differences in the neural substrates of morphosyntactic processing among monolingual English speakers using event-related potentials (ERPs). Although grand-mean analysis showed a biphasic LAN-P600 pattern to grammatical violations, analysis of individuals׳ ERP responses showed that brain responses varied systematically along a continuum between negativity- and positiv...
متن کاملIndividual differences in sentence memory.
Results from an experiment with two parts are presented in this paper. In part one, participants listened to sentences containing two, three, four, or five clauses, and were asked questions about the content of the sentences. The results of part one demonstrate that an important unit of representation in sentence memory is the clause, and not some other component of discourse structure. In part...
متن کاملIndividual Differences in Chunking Ability Predict On-line Sentence Processing
There are considerable differences in language processing skill among the normal population. A key question for cognitive science is whether these differences can be ascribed to variations in domain-general cognitive abilities, hypothesized to play a role in language, such as working memory and statistical learning. In this paper, we present experimental evidence pointing to a fundamental memor...
متن کاملGender Differences in Cognition among Older Adults in China.
In this paper, we model gender differences in cognitive ability in China using a new sample of middle-aged and older Chinese respondents. Modeled after the American Health and Retirement Study (HRS), the CHARLS Pilot survey respondents are 45 years and older in two quite distinct provinces-Zhejiang, a high-growth industrialized province on the East Coast, and Gansu, a largely agricultural and p...
