Asymmetric derivational priming in recognition of Greek nouns and verbs
We examined differences between the processing of inflectional versus derivational morphology, using Greek nouns and verbs with a primed lexical decision task. Previous work suggested that both noun and verb targets were significantly primed by the same grammatical class. However, when preceded by different grammatical class, verb but not noun targets showed priming. We attributed the asymmetri...
متن کاملDeveloping a Semantic Similarity Judgment Test for Persian Action Verbs and Non-action Nouns in Patients With Brain Injury and Determining its Content Validity
Objective: Brain trauma evidences suggest that the two grammatical categories of noun and verb are processed in different regions of the brain due to differences in the complexity of grammatical and semantic information processing. Studies have shown that the verbs belonging to different semantic categories lead to neural activity in different areas of the brain, and action verb processing is r...
متن کاملWord processing in Parkinson's disease is impaired for action verbs but not for concrete nouns.
Recent studies have demonstrated that processing of action words recruits cortical motor regions that are also involved in the planning and execution of the actions words refer to. The functional role of these regions in word understanding remains, however, to be clarified. The present study investigates this issue by examining the impact of Parkinson's disease (PD) on lexical decision performa...
متن کاملRegularity and Irregularity in an Inflectionally Complex Language: Evidence from Polish
We report two experiments which address the question of whether there is support for single or dual mechanisms in the processing of Polish regular and irregular nouns and verbs. The data from an immediate cross-modal priming experiment (verbs and nouns) revealed that there was significant priming, irrespective of regularity, for both verbs and nouns. The results for verbs were replicated in a s...
متن کاملActivating Verbs from Typical Agents, Patients, Instruments, and Locations via Event Schemas
Verbs are a major component of theories of language processing, partly because they exhibit systematic restrictions on their arguments. However, verbs follow their arguments in many constructions (particularly in verb-final languages), making it inefficient to defer processing until the verb. Computational modeling suggests that during sentence processing, nouns may activate information about s...
