DOI: 10.1016/j.actpsy.2019.102866
Abstract: Causal relations can be presented as subjective, involving someone's reasoning, or objective, depicting a real-world cause-consequence relation. Subjective relations require longer processing times than objective relations. We hypothesize that the extra time is due to… read more here.

Prediction during simultaneous interpreting: Evidence from the visual-world paradigm
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Cognition"
DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2021.104987
Abstract: We report the results of an eye-tracking study which used the Visual World Paradigm (VWP) to investigate the time-course of prediction during a simultaneous interpreting task. Twenty-four L1 French professional conference interpreters and twenty-four L1… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41593-017-0062-4
Abstract: Neuroimaging studies of human entorhinal cortex activity revealed 60-degree spatial periodicity, a hallmark of grid cells, as gaze movements were made throughout the visual field. This activity may serve as a framework for organizing visuospatial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/0163853x.2024.2445904
Abstract: ABSTRACT Metaphor comprehension has been investigated in neurodevelopmental disorders, but studies devoted to adults with dyslexia are few and present inconsistent results. The present study sought to investigate how adults with dyslexia process novel metaphors.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/23273798.2018.1448935
Abstract: ABSTRACT This paper reports three eye-tracking experiments using the visual world paradigm to explore the meaning of conditionals in Mandarin Chinese. Experiment 1 found that, when all the tokens were actually true in the experimental… read more here.

Does cognitive control modulate referential ambiguity resolution? A remote visual world study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Language, Cognition and Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.1080/23273798.2024.2369182
Abstract: ABSTRACT Cognitive control facilitates the resolution of representational conflict during language comprehension when incompatible interpretations vie for selection due to linguistic ambiguity. However, it remains unknown if control is required only when conflict arises between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/23273798.2025.2506635
Abstract: ABSTRACT This research investigates the role of consonants and vowels in learning the phonological form and meanings of artificial words. Participants learned to map artificial words to meaningless shapes. The visual world paradigm was applied,… read more here.

Visuospatial working memory load reduces semantic prediction in the visual world

DOI: 10.1080/23273798.2025.2522272
Abstract: ABSTRACT Prediction in language is often about objects in the language users’ visual surroundings. Previous research suggests that linguistic working memory limitations in such task environments constrain language-mediated anticipatory eye movements. In this study, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsif.2019.0750
Abstract: Animal eyes typically possess specialized regions for guiding different behavioural tasks within their specific visual habitat. These specializations, and evolutionary changes to them, can be crucial for understanding an animal's ecology. Here, we explore how… read more here.
