Some new folks are joining the lab this Fall: Kuan-Jung Huang, a new PhD student, and Bojana Ristic, a visiting grad student from BCBL. Welcome, Kuan-Jung and Bojana!
Several new papers from the lab, on a disparate set of topics, are now in press. Requests for reprints are welcome.
One presents data from Lap-Ching Keung’s Masters Thesis on agreement with coordinate subjects:
- Keung, L., & Staub, A. (2018). Variable agreement with coordinate subjects is not a form of agreement attraction. Journal of Memory and Language, 103, 1-18.
Another reports an experiment carried out by Sophia Dodge as part of an independent study, where we find that readers often fail to report a ‘the the’ sequence even when they directly fixate both instances of ‘the’!
- Staub, A., Dodge, S., & Cohen. A. (in press). Failure to notice function word repetitions and omissions in reading: Are eye movements to blame? Psychonomic Bulletin & Review.
A third reports experiments showing that invalid parafoveal preview eliminates the standard predictability effect on early reading time measures. I’ve talked about this work at the CUNY conference, Psychonomics, and elsewhere.
- Staub, A., & Goddard, K. (in press). The role of preview validity in predictability and frequency effects on eye movements in reading. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition.
