Modeling sentence production as a staged generative process Open
Two-stage models of grammatical encoding posit that sentence production unfolds in two sequential steps: the construction of a hierarchical syntactic structure, followed by its linearization into a sequence suitable for articulation. While…

Distinct patterns of syntactic errors doubly dissociate in chronic post-stroke aphasia Open
Background: The lesion correlates of syntactic deficits in aphasia remain poorly understood. Previous studies have suggested that distinct error types in expressive syntax, such as paragrammatic and agrammatic speech, may be associated wit…

The neurobiology of sentence production: A narrative review and meta-analysis Open
Although there is a sizeable body of literature on sentence comprehension and processing both in healthy and disordered language users, the literature on sentence production remains much more sparse. Linguistic and computational descriptio…

An objective coding scheme for grammatical production deficits in aphasia reveals a categorical divide between agrammatism and paragrammatism Open
Syntactic impairments in aphasia can provide a powerful window into the neurobiology of language. Considerable research has focused on agrammatism in nonfluent aphasia, driving a strong association between frontal brain systems and syntax.…

Aligning psycholinguistics, neuroscience, and aphasiology with respect to grammatical encoding Open
The influential model of sentence production developed by Bock and Levelt (1994) posits two stages of grammatical encoding: functional processing and positional processing. This model is sometimes referred to as the "consensus model" of gr…

A review of the neurobiology of syntax Open
The literature regarding the neural basis of syntax is a varied landscape of mutually incompatible descriptions of how and where hierarchical structure is generated and processed. In this work, I first lay out the predominant neurobiologic…

Gender-inclusive language as a Rational Speech Act in Spanish Open
Amidst social changes in gendered language use, there is pushback from institutions such as the Spanish Royal Academy, which claims that the use of the generic masculine (e.g., bomberos ‘firemen’) in describing a mixed-gender group is equa…

Sentence superiority in the reading brain Open
When a sequence of written words is briefly presented and participants are asked to identify just one word at a post-cued location, then word identification accuracy is higher when the word is presented in a grammatically correct sequence …

Parallel word reading revealed by fixation-related potentials Open
During reading, does lexical processing occur for multiple words simultaneously? Cognitive science has yet to answer this prominent question. Recently it has been argued (Snell & Grainger, 2019, TiCS) that the issue warrants supplementing …

On the prosody of French ambiguous multiple negative sentences. Open
While it has long been assumed that prosody can help resolve syntactic and semantic ambiguities, empirical evidence has shown that the mapping between prosody and meaning is complex (Hirschberg & Avesani 2000; Jackendoff 1972). This pa…

Neural representation of linguistic feature hierarchy reflects second-language proficiency Open
Acquiring a new language requires a simultaneous and gradual learning of multiple levels of linguistic attributes. Here, we investigated how this process changes the neural encoding of natural speech by assessing the encoding of the lingui…

Parafoveal‐on‐foveal repetition effects in sentence reading: A co‐registered eye‐tracking and electroencephalogram study Open
When reading, can the next word in the sentence (word n + 1) influence how you read the word you are currently looking at (word n )? Serial models of sentence reading state that this generally should not be the case, whereas parallel model…

English negative concord and double negation: The division of labor between syntax and pragmatics Open
Recent research demonstrates that prototypical negative concord (NC) languages allow double negation (DN) (Espinal & Prieto 2011; Prieto et al. 2013; Déprez et al. 2015; Espinal et al. 2016). In NC, two or more syntactic negations yield a …
