• The effect of animacy on the choice of referring expression (2011, methodology): “We used a written sentence completion task, which has been used in previous studies investigating reference production (e.g., Fukumura & Van Gompel, 2010; Garvey & Caramazza, 1974; Stevenson et al., 1994, 2000).”
• Coherence and Coreference Revisited (2007, background): “Finally, it has been proposed that connectives carry their own focusing properties (Stevenson et al., 1994; Stevenson et al., 2000) that can affect antecedent selection, such that the use of and similarly and and so in Wolf et al.”
• Establishing coherence relations in discourse: The influence of implicit causality and connectives on pronoun resolution (2013, methodology): “Both Experiments 1 and 2 showed that connectives modulate the strength of implicit causality as a cue in pronoun resolution, thereby complementing previous studies (e.g., Ehrlich, 1980; Mckoon et al., 1993; Stevenson et al., 1994, 2000).”
