Semantic Ambiguity Effects in Lexical Processing: A Neural-Network Account Based on Semantic Settling Dynamics

The meanings of most words depend on the context in which they occur (e.g., vs. BANK). Developing a theory of how comprehension of semantically ambiguous words are understood is a critical aspect of any theory of word or discourse comprehension. However, success to date has been limited by discrepancies in the effects of relatedness of meaning observed within and between tasks. ...

Neural systems for word meaning modulated by semantic ambiguity.

One important issue in neuroimaging research on language is how the brain processes and represents lexical semantics. Past studies with various paradigms reveal that the left inferior prefrontal and mid-superior temporal regions play a crucial role in semantic processing. Those studies, however, typically utilize words having a precise and dominant meaning as stimuli and have not manipulated le...

Accent modulates access to word meaning: Evidence for a speaker-model account of spoken word recognition

Speech carries accent information relevant to determining the speaker's linguistic and social background. A series of web-based experiments demonstrate that accent cues can modulate access to word meaning. In Experiments 1-3, British participants were more likely to retrieve the American dominant meaning (e.g., hat meaning of "bonnet") in a word association task if they heard the words in an Am...

An Account of Proceduralist Meaning

Within both game studies and development communities, it is often argued that a game’s processes (rules and goals) are of primary significance when considering a game’s meaning. In opposition to this position, some claim that this approach denies player subjectivity by ignoring the dynamic, culturally-embedded ways in which players create, rather than receive, meaning through play. This paper c...

Semantic Ambiguity Effects in Word Identification

The influence of semantic ambiguity on word identification processes was explored in a series of word naming and lexical-decision experiments. There was no reliable ambiguity effect in 2 naming experiments, although an ambiguity advantage in lexical decision was obtained when orthographically legal nonwords were used. No ambiguity effect was found in iexical decision when orthographically illeg...
