In this review we provide a discussion of the concept of alternatives and its role in linguistic
and psycholinguistic theorizing in the context of the contributions that have appeared in the …

Research in Experimental Pragmatics has shown that deriving scalar implicatures involves
effort and processing costs. This finding was robust and replicated across a wide variety of …

In experiments investigating the processing of true and false negative sentences, it is often
reported that polarity interacts with truth-value, in the sense that true sentences lead to faster …

The neurocognitive mechanism underlying negation processing remains controversial.
While negation is suggested to modulate the access of word meaning, no such evidence …

While sentence processing is generally a highly incremental and predictive process,
negation seems to present an exception to this generalization. Two‐step models of negation …

Studies on negation processing often report a Polarity by Truth interaction: False affirmative
sentences show longer response times and larger N400 ERPs relative to true affirmative …

Negation as a universal feature of human language is used effortlessly in everyday
communication. However, experimental research has shown that the comprehension of …

Although there have been so many studies on schizophrenia under the framework of
predictive coding, works focusing on treatment are very preliminary. A model-oriented …

Previous research in cognitive science and psycholinguistics has shown that language
users are able to predict upcoming linguistic input probabilistically, pre-activating material …
