The present study explores predictors of bare single nouns and bare single verbs in Gulf Arabic through a picture-naming paradigm. Aspects specific to the morpho-phonology of the language (CV skeleton, vocalic pattern) have been investigated for their roles in noun and verb retrieval. A picture-naming paradigm was carried out with 64 healthy native speakers of Gulf Arabic where participants named 282 line drawings representing nouns, and 154 line drawings representing verbs to generate naming latencies for the nouns and verbs in question. Linear regression models were fitted to analyse the relationship between grammatical class and naming latencies as well as morphological features and naming latencies. Verbs, which are more morphologically complex than nouns, were found to have higher naming latencies. Both CV skeleton and vocalic pattern impacted naming latencies and can account for the difference between verb and noun production. The results are discussed in relation to the non-concatenative morphology framework for Semitic languages.","PeriodicalId":47689,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psycholinguistic Research","volume":"54 3","pages":"40"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12106545/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144144143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While most of the prior research has examined RP in the context of psychodynamic psychotherapy and single-case designs, the current study examined RP in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) for 40 depressed clients. The Discourse Attributes Analysis Program (DAAP; Maskit, Bucci, & Murphy, 2012) was employed to evaluate discourse attributes within 80 session transcripts. Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) was used to analyze the data. There was a higher occurrence of affect words in EFT transcripts and a higher occurrence of reflection words in CBT transcripts reflecting each approach's theory of change. The results of the study highlighted the therapists' ability to effectively connect to their experiences and articulate themselves clearly to clients. Among the highest client-rated sessions, therapists of good outcome clients used more concrete, imagistic, specific, and clear language compared to therapists of poor outcome clients. Therapists of the good outcome group had higher WRADM (weighted referential activity mean) scores ((β =.018, p =.006) and WRADHP (weighted referential activity high proportion) scores (β =.059, p =.008). Moreover, clients' session ratings increased as therapists' WRADM (β = 15.08, p =.017) and WRADHP (β = 4.12, p =.032) increased. Contrary to the hypotheses, clients' WRADM, WRADHP, and WRAD/WRRL did not differ between highest and lowest-rated sessions, nor did they predict clients' session ratings. Clients in the two outcome groups also did not differ in terms of how much they symbolized and then reflected on their experiences. Clinical, theoretical, and measurement implications, limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.","PeriodicalId":47689,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psycholinguistic Research","volume":"54 3","pages":"39"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144121207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the COVID-19 pandemic saw the widespread adoption of remote videoconferencing software across a range of talk therapy formats, differences in clinical process between Zoom and in-person treatment formats still have not been widely investigated. This study examined turn-taking dynamics in therapy, a development with ramifications for clinical process as conceptualized via the Referential Process construct of Multiple Code Theory. This study is the first application of the new T-DAAP, the Time-based Discourse Attributes Analysis Program, which analyzes transcripts using measures of Referential Process functions-Arousal, Symbolizing, and Reflecting/Reorganizing-in terms of elapsed time rather than standard methods based on word count. Differences in number and length of pauses, and Referential Process measures (WRAD and WRRL) were compared between 8 in-person and 8 Zoom sessions from the Spring of 2020. Mean pause length was significantly lower in the Zoom condition than in the in-person condition, for both participants, for both within-, and between-speakers pauses. The patient also showed a larger number of turn-taking pauses, and a higher level of Reflection in the Zoom condition, while other Referential Process measures remained largely consistent for the two participants. Ramifications for the understanding of clinical process were explored.","PeriodicalId":47689,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psycholinguistic Research","volume":"54 3","pages":"38"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144121205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this review, we present the results from the last decade by the three main university research groups (Universities of Rome, Bergamo, and Padua) on Italian computerized linguistic measures of the Referential Process (RP). We discuss 22 studies across several clinical and non-clinical settings and populations, exploring the application of RP measures to heterogeneous materials, such as transcripts of validated clinical instruments, expressive writings, autobiographical memories, dreams, and the therapists' clinical notes. We also consider the associations between linguistic measures and psychological constructs. The results show the existence of definite linguistic characteristics in the different samples examined. Specifically, a higher use of sensory-somatic words appears to be associated with depressive states, while a greater use of abstract words is associated with defensive dimensions. Additionally, RP measures seem to capture the affective dysregulation features shown by individuals with higher alexithymia scores, indicating reduced symbolizing and affective capabilities. In general, these findings confirm a strong association between language and bodily functioning, highlighting the connection between physical arousal, emotion, thoughts, and health/pathology dimensions.","PeriodicalId":47689,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psycholinguistic Research","volume":"54 3","pages":"31"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12062113/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144041029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main risks of this neglect are the unexamined adoption of the epistemology that is taken for granted by the culture and is largely inconsistent with the specifics of the object of study of psychological science; the reduction of intervention effectiveness due to the inconsistency between epistemology, theory, and practice; and the maintenance of the gap between research and practice due to the different epistemologies used by clinicians and researchers. This article discusses the scientific status of the computerized linguistic measures of the Referential Process when used for clinical and research purposes. Our claim is that these measures developed to test Wilma Bucci's multiple code theory don't represent an objective examination of the psychotherapeutic process, but rather a methodological option to guide the researcher and clinician in identifying the most plausible scientific hypotheses about the complex phenomenon of emotional communication between speakers. Comparison of data from different points of view (therapist, patient, external observer, computerized linguistic analysis, etc.) and in different contexts (therapies, psychological tests, everyday conversations, experimental situations, etc.) will be presented as promising and viable ways to examine the validity of the hypotheses based on the Referential Process theory.","PeriodicalId":47689,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psycholinguistic Research","volume":"54 3","pages":"33"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12062047/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144003427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dr. Maskit discusses the Discourse Attributes Analysis Program (DAAP) which he created to evaluate psychotherapy and other texts utilizing measures of the Referential Process, a theory developed in the context of multiple code theory (Bucci in Psychoanalysis and cognitive science: a multiple code theory, Guilford Press, New York, 1997, 2023). Dr. Maskit's emphasis is for his audience to understand how his system can be used technically and conceptually, and to provide updates on how measures can be aligned with time to produce new insights. In the first days of the Workshop, Dr. Maskit reviewed the development of the DAAP and its measures; sections of these talks are summarized here with references to relevant publications. He then went on to focus on development of the new TimeDAAP and its crucial role in the Referential Process project. We note with sadness that Dr. Maskit died before he could review and edit his presentation for publication. Wilma Bucci participated in the work presented here and prepared Dr. Maskit's talks for publication. We thank Sean Murphy, Michael Peral and Perry Suskind for their invaluable contributions to this paper.","PeriodicalId":47689,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psycholinguistic Research","volume":"54 3","pages":"34"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12062042/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144046620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
