Currently, production and comprehension are regarded as quite distinct in accounts of
language processing. In rejecting this dichotomy, we instead assert that producing and …

Our target article proposed that language production and comprehension are interwoven,
with speakers making predictions of their own utterances and comprehenders making …

Although Pickering & Garrod (P&G) argue convincingly for a unified system for language
comprehension and production, they fail to explain how such a system might develop. Using …

We welcome the proposal to use forward models to understand predictive processes in
language processing. However, Pickering & Garrod (P&G) miss the opportunity to provide a …

Abstract Although applauding Pickering & Garrod's (P&G's) attempt to ground language use
in the ideomotor perception-action link, which provides an" infrastructure" of embodied …

Pickering and Garrod's integrated model of production and comprehension includes no
explicit role for non-linguistic cognitive processes. Yet, how domain-general cognitive …

Currently, production and comprehension are regarded as quite distinct in accounts of
language processing. In rejecting this dichotomy, we instead assert that producing and …

There is little doubt that predictive coding is an important mechanism in language
processing–indeed, in information processing generally. However, it is less clear whether …

Interactive theories of lexical retrieval in language production assume that activation
cascades from earlier to later processing levels, and feeds back in the reverse direction. This …

Pickering and Garrod consider the possibility that inner speech might be a product of
forward production models. Here I consider the idea of inner speech as a forward model in …
