The role of working memory in processing L2 input: Insights from eye-tracking

Bilingualism: Language and Cognition

Published in: Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, Volume 21, Issue 2, 355-374 Abstract “Our study investigated how attention paid to a target syntactic construction causative had is related to the storage capacity and attention regulation function of working memory (WM) and how these WM abilities moderate the change of knowledge of the target construction in different input conditions. 80 […]

Reconstructing the recent visual past: Hierarchical knowledge-based effects in visual working memory

Psychonomic Bulletin & Review

Published in: Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, Volume 24, Issue 6, December 2017, 1889-1899 Abstract “This paper presents two experiments that examine the influence of multiple levels of knowledge on visual working memory (VWM). Experiment 1 focused on memory for faces. Faces were selected from continua that were constructed by morphing two face photographs in 100 steps; half of

Maintenance of memory for melodies: Articulation or attentional refreshing?

Psychonomic Bulletin & Review

Published in: Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, Volume 24, Issue 6, December 2017, 1964-1970 Abstract “Past research on the effects of articulatory suppression on working memory for nonverbal sounds has been characterized by discrepant findings, which suggests that multiple mechanisms may be involved in the rehearsal of nonverbal sounds. In two experiments we examined the potential roles

A cognitive load delays predictive eye movements similarly during L1 and L2 comprehension

Bilingualism: Language and Cognition

Published in: Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, Volume 21, Issue 2, 251-264 Abstract “We used the visual world eye-tracking paradigm to investigate the effects of cognitive load on predictive eye movements in L1 (Experiment 1) and L2 (Experiment 2) speakers. Participants listened to sentences whose verb was predictive or non-predictive towards one of four objects they were
