Digging up the building blocks of language: Age-of-acquisition effects for multiword phrases (2017, unknown): “…and extend previous findings on the role of multiword units in online processing (e.g., Arnon & Snider, 2010; Jolsvai et al., 2013; Tremblay & Tucker, 2011) and underscore the importance of incorporating larger units into production and comprehension models (McCauley & Christiansen, 2013).”
The cortical dynamics of speaking: present shortcomings and future avenues (2016, background): “…comprehension (e.g. Friederici, 2012; Hickok & Poeppel, 2007; Kotz & Schwarze, 2010; Rauschecker & Tian, 2000), and in particular its recent adaption to speech production (e.g. Hickok, 2012, 2014a; Pickering & Garrod, 2013) are promising alternative accounts to explore in language production.”
Timing in turn-taking and its implications for processing models of language (2015, background): “Pickering and Garrod (2013) outline a general model of psycholinguistic processing, suggesting that production and comprehension are intimately intermeshed.”
Linguistic generalization and compositionality in modern artificial neural networks (2019, background): “, [30]), and predicting what comes next plays a central role in cognition [31, 32, 33, 34].”
What do we mean by prediction in language comprehension? (2015, background): “Actively generative models also provide a link between language comprehension and language production (for discussion, see Jaeger & Ferreira, 2013; Pickering & Garrod, 2007, 2013, and for further discussion of the relationship between prediction in language comprehension and production, see Brown &…”
Monitoring and Control in Language Production (2017, background): “Pickering and Garrod (2013) proposed a classic forward model, in which a predicted percept generated through an efference copy of the action command is compared to an actual percept.”
Individual differences in working memory and processing speed predict anticipatory spoken language processing in the visual world (2016, unknown): “Other accounts assume an important role for event knowledge (e.g. Altmann & Mirkovich, 2009; Metusalem et al., 2012), Indeed, it is likely that multiple-mechanism accounts are required to provide a full picture of anticipatory language processing (Huettig, in press; Mani & Huettig, 2013).”
