Structural facilitation: Mere exposure effects for grammatical acceptability as evidence for syntactic priming in comprehension

Article Abstract:

The experimental method was modeled after 'mere exposure' and artificial grammar learning paradigms in which preferences ratings are enhanced by prior experience with the material. The results were interpreted with respect to frequency sensitive models of parsing and to syntactic priming observed in language production, and the available evidence for shared representations or mechanisms for language production and comprehension is considered.
