Robust effects of working memory demand during naturalistic language comprehension in language-selective cortex

2021-09-19

Abstract excerpt

A standard view of human language processing is that comprehenders build richly structured mental representations of natural language utterances, word by word, using computationally costly memory operations supported by domain-general working memory resources. However, three core claims of this view have been questioned, with some prior work arguing that (1) rich word-by-word structure building is not a core funct...
