TL;DR: A motor theory of speech perception, initially proposed to account for results of early experiments with synthetic speech, is now extensively revised to accommodate recent findings, and to relate the assumptions of the theory to those that might be made about other perceptual modes.

TL;DR: The results of these experiments indicate that, contrary to Piaget's (1954) claims, infants as young as 5 months of age understand that objects continue to exist when occluded and 5-month-old infants realize that solid objects do not move through the space occupied by other solid objects.

TL;DR: Differences in the manner in which writing systems represent phonology are not relevant to the recognition of common words, consistent with a parallel interactive model of word recognition in which orthographic and phonological information are activated at different latencies.

TL;DR: The hypothesis explored in this paper is that this hierarchy is related to the conceptual accessibility of the intended referents of noun phrases that commonly occur in particular relational roles, with relations higher in the hierarchy typically occupied by noun phrases representing more accessible concepts.

TL;DR: The results of three experiments indicated that subjects processed idiomatic expressions more quickly than they did nonidiomatic, control strings, and that flexible idioms were recalled more often than were frozen ones.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the matching task utilizes a level of mental representation at which overgenerated sentences are indistinguishable from fully grammatical sentences, which implies a close correspondence between formal derivational mechanisms and features of the operation of the language processor.

TL;DR: A further possibility is examined, that the metre of a piece of music can be used to control the time course of a performance through its mapping onto a time scale generated by a timekeeper.

TL;DR: The pattern of errors and latencies suggested a general explanation for failures in rationality: subjects do not see immediately the need to search for counterexamples, and may lose their insight into this principle when it becomes difficult to determine what counts as a countereXample.

TL;DR: Two experiments were designed to replicate Au's findings using Chinese speakers with minimal or no previous exposure to English as a Foreign Language instruction and indicate that grade of the subject, content of the story or problem and presentation format are significant factors in determining performance on the tasks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a modified version of a dual-route model intended to accommodate these data, and suggest that this exercise shows that there is no basis on which to prefer the time-course model I have developed.

TL;DR: This article argued that Seidenberg's claim that effects of spelling-to-sound regularity are limited to low frequency words in English is not adequately supported by the data and proposed a parallel interactive activation model of word recognition based on McClelland and Rumelhart (1981).

TL;DR: This instance of grammatical priming is described as an effect that arises post-lexically, based on the outcomes of relatively independent lexical and syntactical processors.

TL;DR: The notion of “epistemological parity” is introduced as a mechanism by which a psychologist's substantive theory and epistemological views are adjusted one to another in a historical case study of the “place versus response” controversy.

TL;DR: It is argued that the psychological notion of learnability is actually the touchstone of comparison, and given this criterion, one can understand just why linguistic grammars should form the abstract foundation of psychological parsing models.

TL;DR: Serafine as mentioned in this paper argued that every formal analysis of an artwork should be an implicit description of the human cognitive processes that give rise to it, in composing or hearing or both.

TL;DR: In this paper, Serafine argues that there is a wide gap between observable behavior and claims about mental states and/or processes, and argues persuasively for the autonomy of music scholarship in relation to cognitive science.

TL;DR: The problem of cognitive scientists being in a bind as mentioned in this paper has been identified as a major obstacle in cognitive science and neuroscience research, and it has been addressed in a variety of ways, e.g., the way an agency can propose a lofty scientific goal, closely monitor steps in progress, then terminate funding at a point at which the results are practically applicable to an intermediate, possibly even undisclosed objective.

TL;DR: In this paper, Marantz makes the following complaints, which are treated in reverse order before mentioning two additional issues which are possibly the source of our differing opinions: cognitive-psychological and epistemological issues.

TL;DR: The combined results of normal and agrammatic subjects provide evidence for a computational distinction of different vocabulary types, and consequently, their attribution to different levels of sentence processing, and suggest that lexical and non-lexical information is generally processed at different levels, even if both types of information are carried by one item.

TL;DR: It is concluded that children's concept of weight and density do differentiate in development and that it does make sense to view children's concepts in the context of theory-like structures.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the authors' memory is made up of individual, unconnected Records, to each of which is attached a Heading, and that Headed Records can neither be deleted nor modified.

TL;DR: The extremely poor abilities of subjects to predict results can hardly be accounted for by a ‘tacit knowledge’ hypothesis, since, assuming that knowledge of the relationships linking speed, time, and physical distance normally ‘penetrates’ image processing, such knowledge is likely to be used for making rather accurate predictions concerning these experimental situations.

TL;DR: It is argued that there are compelling reasons to question the coherence of agrammatism as a psychological entity and that the single case methodology for the study of aphasia can address these goals by taking patterns of performance on particular linguistic tasks as basic units of analysis, and that this approach avoids the methodological pitfalls faced by studies which take clinical categories as starting points.

TL;DR: An explanation as to why many superordinate category terms are mass nouns although they refer to diverse, discrete, countable objects, and a novel way in which psychological functions contribute to the evolution of linguistic structure is suggested.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the count/mass distinction is not acquired via an object/substance distinction although semantic properties of quantification are probably important for the acquisition process.

TL;DR: In this article, Smith, Medin and Rips have argued that the metaphysics is of interest only to metaphysics and not to psychology, and that metaphysics are irrelevant to psychology.
