Specific language impairment is not specific to language: the procedural deficit hypothesis. (2005, unknown): “…morphemes (e.g., the -ed or -ness suffixes, as in walked and happiness) and representations of complex linguistic structures whose meanings cannot be transparently derived from their parts (e.g., idiomatic phrases, such as kick the bucket) (Di Sciullo and Williams, 1987; Halle and Marantz, 1993 ).”
The Psychological Reality of Phonaesthemes (2004, methodology): “In fact, in most experiments using this methodology, the same targets are used across conditions, with only the primes varying.”
The faculty of language: what's special about it? (2005, unknown): “Another distinctive feature about words is that (with the exception of proper names, which in many regards are more like phrases than words; (see Bloom, 1994b) they are generic, referring to kinds of objects and events rather than specific objects and events (di Sciullo & Williams, 1987).”
Contributions of memory circuits to language: the declarative/procedural model. (2004, background): “However, the nature of this “linguistic” lexicon is controversial, as to whether it is a simple storage place (the mental lexicon) or whether, in addition, rule-based computations are carried out there (Anderson, 1992; Chomsky, 1970; Di Sciullo & Williams, 1987; Lieber, 1992; Spencer, 1991).”
The indeterminacy of word segmentation and the nature of morphology and syntax (2011, background): “Bauer 1988: 52, Dixon & Aikhenvald 2002: 19, Mugdan 1994: 2552). Bauer (1988: 52) notes that in a Latin word like reg-e:-ba-nt-ur [rule-STEM-PST-3PL-PASS] 'they were being ruled', the order of the morphs cannot be rearranged, while the word forms of a sentence are "much more movable". But on the one”
Productivity and Reuse in Language (2011, unknown): “However, not all generalizations that are consistent with the input data are productive, nor is storage and reuse limited to a single kind of unit such as words, but rather both productivity and reuse cut across levels of linguistic structure (Di Sciullo & Williams, 1987).”
Realizing Germanic Inflection: Why Morphology Does Not Drive Syntax (2002, background): “…and morphology along these lines constitutes a prima facie challenge to the version of the lexicalist hypothesis called the Atomicity Thesis in DiSciullo & Williams 1987, p. 49, according to which “[w]ords are ‘atomic’ at the level of phrasal syntax [… in that they] have ‘features,’ or…”
