Document Summary

Long term and short term memory and language. Working memory and language processing: predictions. Longer dependencies between words in text should be more difficult to maintain in working memory. Complex sentences should be more difficult than simpler sentences: daneman and carpenter. Those with a longer reading span have better correct pronoun referent responses. Those with less than 5 did worse the more sentences there were between referent noun and pronoun. Subject and object relative clauses: embedded relative clauses hard to comprehend. Initial noun is object of the relative clause; and the subject of the main verb. Long-term memory and language: word recognition involves accessing semantic representation of word in ltm, long term memory used to understand language. Relationship between semantic and episodic memory: semantic. Organized knowledge of words, concepts, symbols and objects. Experts can group or chuck pieces into larger units in working memory when units are meaningful: episodic. Central issues in language processing: serial processing.
