From decomposition to distributed theories of morphological processing in reading
The morphological structure of complex words impacts how they are processed during
visual word recognition. This impact varies over the course of reading acquisition and for …

[HTML][HTML] Form to meaning mapping and the impact of explicit morpheme combination in novel word processing
In the present study, we leveraged computational methods to explore the extent to which,
relative to direct access to semantics from orthographic cues, the additional appreciation of …

Semantic transparency is not invisibility: A computational model of perceptually-grounded conceptual combination in word processing
Previous studies found that an automatic meaning-composition process affects the
processing of morphologically complex words, and related this operation to conceptual …

A systematic search for compound semantics in pretrained BERT architectures
F Miletić, SS im Walde - Proceedings of the 17th Conference of the …, 2023 - aclanthology.org
To date, transformer-based models such as BERT have been less successful in predicting
compositionality of noun compounds than static word embeddings. This is likely related to a …

A (distributional) semantic perspective on the processing of morphologically complex words
While morphemes are theoretically defined as linguistic units linking form and meaning,
semantic effects in morphological processing are not reported consistently in the literature …

Trying to make it work: Compositional effects in the processing of compound “nonwords”
Speakers of languages with synchronically productive compounding systems, such as
English, are likely to encounter new compounds on a daily basis. These can only be useful …

[HTML][HTML] Are two words recalled or recognised as one? How age-of-acquisition affects memory for compound words
MM Elsherif, JC Catling - Journal of Memory and Language, 2023 - Elsevier
The age at which a person acquires knowledge of an item is a strong predictor of item
retrieval, hereon defined as the Age of Acquisition (AoA) effect. This effect is such that early …
