Putting words together• Standard transmission of language is flat
• Stream of sounds
• Goal for the hearer: Get meaning!

The benefits of structure• Language is not flat
• Words are organized hierarchically
• Grouped into phrases
• Phrases grouped into larger phrases

• Parsing sentences involves:
• Assigning words to grammatical categories
• Building up tree-like relations within the sentence
• Sentence processing is highly incremental
• We usually do this parsing without the benefit of seeing what comes next

The need for speed• Language processing must be rapid
• We cannot take a step back and consider the sentence as a whole when we engage in regular, real-world use of language, we must make sense of sentences on-the-fly
• How do we achieve this speed?
• Autonomous vs. interactive approaches

Online/Offline methods• Online: When a task is able to capture the
processing of language in real time
• Typical online measures: Event-related brain potentials (ERPs) & eye-tracking
• Offline: When a task captures the processing of language after processing has taken place
• Typical offline measure: Grammaticality judgments

Influence of prior context• Semantic context plays a role in sentence
processing – but when?
• Semantic/contextual information is available at least 300-400 msec after the onset of a word

Influence of prior context• Semantic context plays a role in sentence
processing – but when?
• Semantic/contextual information is available at least 300-400 msec after the onset of a word
• The question is: what happens in that first 300 milliseconds?

Autonomous models• Fastest with initial parse of syntactic
information only (and then worry about meaning)
• Logic: We would only be slowed down by additional information that would need to be processed to take context into effect
• So, those first 300 msec are dedicated to grammatical parsing

• Some ERP studies show that violations of word category and other morpho-syntactic violations give an ERP response at early as 150msec
• But, these findings are still contested

Autonomous models• Evidence
• Speed of lexical activation is influenced by a number of factors, but all meanings of ambiguous words are initially activated to some degree
• Initial stages at least somewhat resistant to contextual influence
