Statistically induced chunking recall: A memory‐based approach to statistical learning
The computations involved in statistical learning have long been debated. Here, we build on
work suggesting that a basic memory process, chunking, may account for the processing of …

Close encounters of the word kind: Attested distributional information boosts statistical learning
Statistical learning, the ability to extract regularities from input (eg, in language), is likely
supported by learners' prior expectations about how component units co‐occur. In this study …

Measuring children's auditory statistical learning via serial recall
Statistical learning (SL) has been a prominent focus of research in developmental and adult
populations, guided by the assumption that it is a fundamental component of learning …

The effect of children's prior knowledge and language abilities on their statistical learning
Statistical learning (SL) is assumed to lead to long-term memory representations. However,
the way that those representations influence future learning remains largely unknown. We …

False friends or real friends? False cognates show advantage in word form learning
We explored the acquisition of three types of second language (L2) words in a paired–
associates learning task. Seventy–six Polish participants were presented with 24 nonwords …
