PS I’m hoping the experiment ultimately resembles this study:
Friedmann, N., Taranto, G., Shapiro, L. P., & Swinney, D. (2008). The leaf fell (the leaf): The online processing of unaccusatives. Linguistic inquiry, 39(3), 355-377.I should maybe add some additional context on the project. Participants will hear a recorded sentences. Each sentence will have a lexical decision task probe at some point while the sound file plays. There are three probe positions we want to measure reaction time at (each experimental stimulus sentence will differ slightly in exactly where we want the probes to appear). The experiment will have a two levels for relatedness of the probe; three levels for probe position; and two levels for the factor noun animacy. We’re testing to see if (in)animacy affects reactivation of sentence material.
