Mental simulation theories of language comprehension propose that people automatically create mental representations of objects mentioned in sentences. Mental representation is often measured with the sentence-picture verification task, wherein …
Presentation
Third language acquisition often involves morphosyntactic transfer from previously acquired languages. Research suggests that crosslinguistic influence follows systematic patterns, with attention playing a role in selecting the source of transfer. …

The burgeoning field of third language (L3) acquisition has increasingly focused on intermediate stages of language development, aiming to establish the groundwork for comprehensive models of L3 learning that encompass the entire developmental …
Presentation
Unlike children acquiring their first language (L1), L2/Ln learners can draw on existing grammatical knowledge to ease the task, at least for those properties where the grammars align. This means that, in addition to statistical learning, there might …
Presentation
The acquisition of a third language (L3) often involves the transfer of morphosyntactic structures from the first language and/or the second language to the developing L3 grammar, allowing the recycling of previously acquired knowledge (Rothman et …

Custom functions that extend sjPlot to discretise continuous variables in interaction plots into equally-sized intervals (deciles or sextiles) that include minimum and maximum values, with legend counts showing sample sizes per level.
Post
Custom functions extending sjPlot for plotting interactions between two continuous variables by dividing one into ten bins (deciles) or six bins (sextiles), with optional sample size display in legend for individual differences research.
Publication
Multilevel analyses investigating the interplay between language-based and vision-based information in conceptual processing across semantic priming, semantic decision and lexical decision paradigms, with power analyses revealing sample size requirements for examining perceptual simulation and individual differences.
