SLUGS AT CUNY

From March 29-31, our growing psycholinguistics contingent managed to extract enough oxygen from Boulder’s mile-high air to deliver 8(!) successful presentations. Kudos to dynamic duo Stack Ruff for organizing the latest installment of the UMass/UCSC/UCLA party. Good times were had by all! Cruz-entations are listed in no particular order below:

Talks:

Jenny Bellik & Tom Roberts: “Remembering prosody in discourse: Verbatim memory and regeneration.”

Posters:

Stephanie Rich & Jesse Harris: “Thinking ahead has its limits: Structural prediction with correlative and quantificational ‘both.'”

Steven Foley & Matt Wagers: “Computing object agreement in Georgian is easier than computing subject agreement.”

Netta Ben-Meir, Nick Van Handel, & Matt Wagers: “Verbs retrieve subjects, not clausal attachment sites.”

Margaret Kroll & Amanda Rysling: “Evaluating truth: Experimental evidence from appositives and conjunctions.”

Amanda Rysling, Charles Clifton, Nick Van Handel, Ria Geguera, Hanna Choi and Anne Cutler: “Listeners’ predictions of sentence lengths are categorical, not gradient.”

Kelsey Sasaki: “Grammatical and pragmatic cues guide temporal interpretation in discourse.”

Shayne Sloggett, Amanda Rysling, Adrian Staub: “Linguistic focus as predictive attention allocation.”
