The brain basis of language processing: from structure to function. (2011, background): “32), as well as studies that had used comprehension verification tasks either by question answering (who did what to whom) (13, 22, 70, 166), by sentence probe verification (184), or by word probe verification (225, 226).”
Neuroimaging of syntax and syntactic processing. (2006, methodology): “This area is activated when the parser encounters ungrammatical strings for which syntactic integration of the violating element into the prior structure is impossible [33], when processing syntactically complex object-first compared with subject-first sentences [48,49], and when processing scramble”
The extended argument dependency model: a neurocognitive approach to sentence comprehension across languages. (2006, methodology): “This finding cannot be derived via unification, as (a) the assumption of different unification operations in the two structures contradicts Hagoort’s basic premises (see above) and (b) the integration of word-order relevant features such as animacy, thematic roles (Bornkessel et al., 2005) and refer”
