To determine how these features are accessed during both native (L1) and non-native (L2) word recognition, the present study compares the results from a masked visual priming experiment testing inflected adjectives of German to those of a previous overt (cross-modal) priming experiment on the same phenomenon. While for the L1 group both experiments produced converging results, a group of highly-proficient Russian L2 learners of German showed native-like modulations of repetition priming effects under overt, but not under masked priming conditions. These results indicate that not only affixes but also their morphosyntactic features are accessible during initial form-based lexical access, albeit only for L1 and not for L2 processing. We argue that this contrast is in line with other findings suggesting that non-native language processing is less influenced by structural information than the L1.}, language = {en} } @article{ClahsenVerissimo2016, author = {Clahsen, Harald and Verissimo, Joao Marques}, title = {Investigating grammatical processing in bilinguals The case of morphological priming}, series = {Linguistic approaches to bilingualism}, volume = {6}, journal = {Linguistic approaches to bilingualism}, publisher = {John Benjamins Publishing Co.}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1879-9264}, doi = {10.1075/lab.15039.cla}, pages = {685 -- 698}, year = {2016}, abstract = {In this article we discuss methods for investigating grammatical processing in bilinguals. We will present a methodological approach that relies on: (i) linguistic theory (in our case, morphology) for the construction of experimental materials; (ii) a design that allows for direct (within-experiment, within-participant, and within-item) comparisons of the critical conditions; and (iii) data analysis techniques that make both linear and non-linear gradient effects visible. We review recent studies of masked morphological priming in bilinguals in which the application of these methodological principles revealed highly selective interactions of age of acquisition (and the native/non-native contrast) with the linguistic distinction between inflection and derivation. We believe that such considerations are not only relevant for grammatical processing experiments, but also for studying bilingualism, and its potential cognitive advantages, more generally.}, language = {en} } @misc{LeminenLehtonenBozicetal.2016, author = {Leminen, Alina and Lehtonen, Minna and Bozic, Mirjana and Clahsen, Harald}, title = {Editorial: Morphologically Complex Words in the Mind/Brain}, series = {Frontiers in human neuroscienc}, volume = {10}, journal = {Frontiers in human neuroscienc}, publisher = {Frontiers Research Foundation}, address = {Lausanne}, issn = {1662-5161}, doi = {10.3389/fnhum.2016.00047}, pages = {150 -- 160}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @misc{LeminenLehtonenBozicetal.2016, author = {Leminen, Alina and Lehtonen, Minna and Bozic, Mirjana and Clahsen, Harald}, title = {Editorial}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {441}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-407243}, pages = {3}, year = {2016}, abstract = {kein abstract vorhanden}, language = {en} } @misc{Clahsen2016, author = {Clahsen, Harald}, title = {Contributions of linguistic typology to psycholinguistics}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-397757}, pages = {16}, year = {2016}, abstract = {This article first outlines different ways of how psycholinguists have dealt with linguistic diversity and illustrates these approaches with three familiar cases from research on language processing, language acquisition, and language disorders.
