The present studies investigated children's use of verb inflections to guide their initial mapping of verb meanings. Given that children initially apply the progressive -ing inflection to verbs denoti...
This study focuses on the relation between verb position and verb inflection in the speech production of Dutch agrammatic patients. In Dutch, the finite verb is moved to second position in the matrix ...
this paper we measure these probabilities only for syntactic argument frames, but the Lemma Argument Probability hypothesis bears equally on the semantic/thematic expectations shown by studies such as...

There is considerable evidence showing that the human sentence processor is guided by lexical preferences in resolving syntactic ambiguities. Several types of preferences have been identified, includi...
The probabilistic relation between verbs and their arguments plays an important role in psychological theories of human language processing. For example, Ford, Bresnan and Kaplan (1982) proposed that ...
