Word order effect in collocation processing (2021)
Journal Article

Collocations are words associated because of their frequent co-occurrence, which makes them predictable and leads to facilitated processing. While there have been suggestions that collocations are stored as unanalysed chunks, other researchers disagr... Read More about Word order effect in collocation processing.

'Did You See That?' - The Role of Repetition and Enhancement on Lexical Bundle Processing in English Learning Materials (2021)
Journal Article

For second-language learners, the use of formulaic language can benefit processing. Previous studies have explored the development of a 'processing advantage' for lexical bundles and investigated whether learning materials can be optimized via repeti...

The effect of input modes and number of exposures on the learning of L2 binomials (2021)
Journal Article

Despite the importance of mastering different types of formulaic sequences in a second language, little is known about the relative effect of different input modes on their acquisition. This study explores the learning of a particular type of formula... Read More about The effect of input modes and number of exposures on the learning of L2 binomials.

When the Idiom Advantage Comes Up Short: Eye-Tracking Canonical and Modified Idioms (2021)
Journal Article

The literature on idioms often talks about an ‘idiom advantage’, such that familiar idioms (spill the beans) are generally processed faster than comparable literal phrases (burn the beans). More recently, researchers have explored the processing of i... Read More about When the Idiom Advantage Comes Up Short: Eye-Tracking Canonical and Modified Idioms.

Using GAMMs to model trial-by-trial fluctuations in experimental data: More risks but hardly any benefit (2021)
Journal Article

Data from each subject in a repeated-measures experiment forms a time series , which may include trial-by-trial fluctuations arising from human factors such as practice or fatigue. Concerns about the statistical implications of such effects have incr... Read More about Using GAMMs to model trial-by-trial fluctuations in experimental data: More risks but hardly any benefit.

The Effect of Auditory Input on Multimodal Reading Comprehension: An Examination of Adult Readers’ Eye Movements (2021)
Journal Article

Comprehension of many types of texts involves constructing meaning from text and pictures. However, research examining how second language (L2) learners process text and pictures and the relationship with comprehension is scarce. Thus, while verbal i...
