Thus, they will generally make many incorrect guesses about a word’s meaning before arriving at its correct meaning. Here, we asked whether these initial incorrect guesses might nevertheless be useful to learners by providing information about a word’s semantic neighborhood (e.g., if most guesses were food items, perhaps the word has a food-related meaning). To test this, we analyzed datasets from previous tasks in which adults guessed the word which caregivers uttered in interactions with their children. We first tested whether adults’ incorrect guesses are, indeed, semantically similar to the correct meaning. In Study 1, we established that learners’ incorrect guesses were semantically similar to the target word. We then asked whether adults successfully used these semantically similar guesses as “stepping-stones” to arrive at the correct meaning across exposures. Study 2 showed that overall, learners’ guesses were semantically consistent across exposures. However, this effect was small, and correct guesses were not judged to be similar to learners’ prior, incorrect guesses. Moreover, Study 3 revealed that semantically close-to-target guesses did not improve learners’ subsequent accuracy. Thus, even adult word learners fail to use semantic similarity in cross-situational word learning. Study 4 confirmed this result in a new word learning experiment: even for maximally similar meaning pairs, adults failed to generate thematically or taxonomically similar meanings across exposures. While learners’ incorrect guesses tend to be similar to the correct meaning, learners do not successfully use this information to learn words across exposures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16493,"journal":{"name":"Journal of memory and language","volume":"146 ","pages":"Article 104693"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145011009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four experiments were conducted to investigate whether comprehension processes are also impaired by concurrent speech planning, or whether language comprehension is prioritised during process overlap in turn taking. In Experiment 1a, participants verbally responded to quiz questions while monitoring the auditorily presented question for a target phoneme. Phoneme detection performance was found to be reduced when the target phoneme was located at a position in the question where participants were already planning their response as compared to when they were not yet planning their response. A comparison with participants’ phoneme detection performance in Experiments 1b and 1c, featuring either no or a delayed speech planning task, shows that interlocutors prioritise speech planning in phases of limited processing capacity during turn taking situations. In Experiment 2, participants answered the same quiz questions used in Experiment 1a but had to detect tones instead of phonemes. A comparison with the phoneme detection performance in Experiment 1a suggests that speech planning interferes with phonological input processing in particular.

Linguistic labels may affect categorization by either enhancing sensory encoding or modulating post-sensory processing. To dissociate these accounts, this study investigated whether label effects arise during sensory encoding or post-sensory processing, and whether they are modality-specific or modality-general. Using visual and auditory categorization tasks with a priming paradigm, we combined hierarchical drift–diffusion modeling (HDDM), electroencephalogram (EEG) decoding, and neurally-informed modeling to compare label effects against pseudoword baseline. Our results revealed consistent patterns across visual and auditory tasks. Behaviorally, congruent labels facilitated faster and more accurate responses in both visual and auditory tasks, while incongruent labels impaired accuracy in visual categorization. HDDM revealed that labels reduced response boundaries across tasks, with congruent labels shortening non-decision time and incongruent labels prolonging it. Critically, EEG analyses demonstrated that labels selectively amplified late neural components (post-sensory processing) without affecting early sensory encoding. Neurally informed modeling further confirmed that changes in response boundary arise from the enhanced efficiency of the post-sensory process. These findings support a modality-general, post-sensory account of label effects in categorization, aligning with the label-as-marker framework, where labels act as supervisory signals guiding categorical decisions rather than perceptual features.

It analyzes a large-scale Duolingo dataset and quantifies the impact of previously learned words on current word memory. By improving the Half-Life Regression model with interlexical features, we constructed an L2 interlexical influence matrix and examined how similarity dimensions affect vocabulary retention through complementary analytical approaches. The results indicate that semantic similarity is the primary facilitator with significant nonlinear impacts, whereas orthographic similarity causes interference when considered in isolation. Notably, high semantic similarity mitigates orthographic interference, enabling successful vocabulary retention even when visual form similarities would otherwise impede learning. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional interactions significantly enhanced model fit, while four-dimensional interactions showed no significant improvement, suggesting an optimal complexity threshold for similarity-based memory facilitation.

Through four web-based mouse-tracking experiments, we tested whether and how segmental variations in the auxiliary <em>have</em> (contracted vs. uncontracted) could signal prominence in relation to information structure and guide sentence processing in a mini two-sentence dialogue. It was hypothesized that the uncontracted, segmentally full form would carry prosodic weight on the auxiliary, independently of suprasegmental cues with pitch accent. The first two experiments showed that when <em>have</em> (in <em>they have</em>) was hyperarticulated with pitch accent, participants could use its prosodic weight, perceiving an enhanced affirmativeness in contrast with a preceding negative question with <em>haven’t</em>. However, an uncontracted <em>have</em> when produced with no pitch accent, was not perceived as carrying such prosodic weight. The intended uncontracted form produced with no pitch accent differed from the accented one, not only in suprasegmental features but also in segmental detail, with the ‘h’ being weakened. Experiment 3 used an uncontracted <em>have</em> with a clear ‘h’, which did create prosodic weight for enhancing affirmativeness contrast even without pitch accent. Experiment 4 confirmed that this effect was not merely due to the longer duration of this form as a whole, contributed by a full ‘h’, highlighting genuine segmental contribution to the interpretation of <em>they have</em> with its prosodic weight of prominence in relation to the information structure of the mini dialogue.
