Document Summary
Chapter 11 you can skip family resemblance models. Chapter 12, you can skip the neuroscience of text processing. Chapter 14, read the first bit, including speech acts, but you don"t need the rest. At first sight, our experience of garden path sentences is evidence for a serial autonomous processor. We could have been taken there by either semantic or syntactic factors. There has been a great deal of research on trying to decide which. According to the serial autonomy model, we experience the garden path effect because the single syntactic representation we are constructing on syntactic grounds turns out to be incorrect. According to the parallel autonomy model, one representation is much more active than the others because of the strength of the syntactic cues, but this turns out to be wrong. According to the interactive model, various sources of information support the analysis more than its alternative. However, later information is inconsistent with these initial activation levels.
