______ and _____ are not violations of turn taking Correct
Answers minimal responses and overlapping
a combination of turn yielding signals at once can provide other
speakers with __________ place to jump in with their own turn
Correct Answers transition relevant phrase
A researcher decides to conduct an experiment similar to
Neisser's (1964) visual search study, presenting "Z"'s in arrays
containing two types of distracter objects. In one array, there are
letters such as "O"s and "G"s. In the other array, there are letters
such as "E"s and "X"s. Which of the following patterns of
results would suggest that letter perception is bottom-up and
feature-based?
a. Faster detection of Zs in arrays of E's and X's
b. Slower detection of Z's in arrays of E's and X's
c. Slower detection of Z's in arrays of O's and G's
d. Equally fast detection in either array type Correct Answers b
A two-stage model with an initial stage that uses just syntactic
information and a second stage that makes use of any semantic
or pragmatic information Correct Answers garden path
sentence
ability to read non words disrupted, but reading learned words
remains Correct Answers phonological dyslexia
-no sub lexical route, only lexical route
,ability to read regular forms of words disrupted, but able to use
grapheme to phoneme rules Correct Answers surface dyslexia
-sublexical route and no lexical route
According the "Good-Enough" paper by Ferreira et al. (2002),
the reason why the good-enough approach might be particularly
useful in helping to account for sentence comprehension during
conversation is that in conversation, ______________.
a. syntactic priming is common
b. syntactic priming is uncommon
c. conversational partners usually do their best to deeply
understand each other
d. the goal of comprehension is to understand a partner's
statement well enough to produce a reply Correct Answers d
According to the Sacks, Shegloff, and Jefferson (1974) model of
turn-taking, the primary rule is that
a. the current speaker is allowed to select the next speaker
b. the first person to speak up during a silence gains the floor
c. the current speaker may continue, but is not obligated to do so
d. the speaker who yields the least number of turns is perceived
to be the conversational leader Correct Answers a
Along with experience, readers become more:
a. efficient in extracting information from text with fewer eye
movements
b. careful in fixating every word
c. careless by needing to regress more often to previous words
, d. rapid in their reading, but extract less information from the
text Correct Answers a
Also in the "Good-Enough" paper by Ferreira et al. (2002), two
experiments were summarized that supported good-enough
processing. In one of them, by Ferreira & Stacey (2000),
participants read sentences and were asked to provide ratings for
each sentence as to whether the sentence was plausible. They
concluded that readers sometimes used semantic knowledge and
ignored syntactic information in making these plausibility
judgment ratings. Ratings of which of the following sentences
allowed them to draw this conclusion?
a. The dog bit the man.
b. The man bit the dog.
c. The man was bitten by the dog.
d. The dog was bitten by the man. Correct Answers d
Although the perceptual spans of both English speakers and
Hebrew speakers are asymmetrical, they are not asymmetrical in
the same direction. For English speakers, perceptual span is
larger to the right side of the current fixation point, and for
Hebrew speakers, it is larger to the left side. Why is that?
a. speakers of English tend to drive and walk on the right;
speakers of Hebrew tend to drive and walk on the left
b. speakers of Hebrew focus more on the past than speakers of
English
c. due to differences in the direction in which each language is
written and read, attention moves further to the right while
reading English, and further to the left while reading Hebrew
