6. What does eyetracking provide a sensitivity to?

  • Speed of processing of individual words
  • Speed of semantic processing
  • Speed of lexical processing
  • Channel switching

7. Which theory states that context can override the garden path effect?

  • Constraint based theories
  • Referential context
  • Sausage machine
  • Interactivity

8. Which of these is not true of referential context theory?

  • Context can override the garden path effect
  • No such thing as a truly neutral context
  • Incremental parallel processing (Alternative parses generated in parallel)
  • Serial autonomous processing (Alternative parses generated in parallel)
  • Weak interactivity

9. What does the study by Frazier & Rayner support?

  • An interactive parser guided by late closure
  • A serial parser guided by late closure
  • A serial parser guided by interactivity
  • An interactive parser guided by minimal attachment

10. Which feature of the garden path has best stood the test of time?

  • Autonomous
  • Innate/universal
  • Incrementality
  • Serial

11. In a constraint based framework, what is ambiguity resolution seen as?

  • A constraint satisfaction process
  • Incrementality
  • A resource limitation
  • A processing limitation

12. How does animacy affect the parse?

  • Makes a difference to the size of the garden path; evidence AGAINST a fully autonomous parser
  • Makes a difference to the size of the garden path; evidence FOR a fully autonomous parser
  • Makes a difference to the context of the garden path; evidence AGAINST a fully autonomous parser
  • Makes a difference to the context of the garden path; evidence FOR a fully autonomous parser
