What can the brain teach us about building artificial intelligence? (2016, background): “These capacities are in place before children master language, and they provide the building blocks for linguistic meaning and language acquisition (Carey 2009; Jackendoff 2003; Kemp 2007; O’Donnell 2015; Pinker 2007; Xu & Tenenbaum 2007).”
Is the heritage language like a second language (2012, background): “with their own structural and hierarchical organization, as well as connections between modules, or “interfaces” (Burkhardt, 2005; Jackendoff, 2002; Ramchand & Reiss, 2007).”
Becoming syntactic. (2006, unknown): “, 1996; MacWhinney, 1999; Seidenberg, 1997; Tomasello, 2003) and, more recently, generativists themselves (Culicover & Nowak, 2003; Hauser, Chomsky, & Fitch, 2002; Jackendoff, 2002), have placed their hopes on domain-general learning mechanisms, such as implicit sequence learning.”
The logic of syntactic priming and acceptability judgments (2016, unknown): “Importantly, elements expressed in the message may not always straightforwardly correspond to elements expressed in the syntax and to lexical content (e.g., there is no word expressing the writing event; cf. Jackendoff 2002b).”
The extended argument dependency model: a neurocognitive approach to sentence comprehension across languages. (2006, background): “, 1994), the competition model appears better suited to modeling cross-linguistic findings (particularly in verb-final languages), as it (at least implicitly) assumes an abstract, rather than a verb-based, representation of the some of the relevant cues (see, e.g., the connectionist simulation in Ke”
Alignment as the Basis for Successful Communication (2006, background): “Whereas Jackendoff (2002) focused on the description of a relatively fixed lexicon, the lexicon can change all the time during dialogue, with new expressions becoming routinized (and, presumably, other previously routinized expressions being “lost”).”
On my mind: thoughts about salience, context and figurative language from a second language perspective (2006, background): “When we communicate we internalize the uttered (or written) linguistic context, that is, bring it into our mind (see Gardenfors, 1997; Jackendoff, 2002; Rapaport, 2003).”
The Evolution of Language: A Comparative Review (2005, unknown): “…with biologists and cognitive scientists, and the valuable insights of decades of theoretical and comparative research are being re-integrated into the cognitive sciences and comparative biology (Rizzolatti and Arbib 1998; Calvin and Bickerton 2000; Jackendoff 2002; Hauser et al. 2002a).”
Interface transparency and the psychosemantics of most (2011, background): “As a long notable exception, Jackendoff (1983, 1990, 2002) has usefully illustrated how theorists can draw conclusions about conceptual structures from linguistic data.”
The nature of the language faculty and its implications for evolution of language (Reply to Fitch, Hauser, and Chomsky) (2005, background): “In the case of language (see Jackendoff, 2002), consider the possible orderings in the evolution of the lexicon and syntax.”
Construction Morphology (2010, background): “Booij cites as a well-known example of a syntactic construction the following caused-motion sentence from Goldberg (2006).”
