A note on co-occurrence, transitional probability, and causal inference

2020-09-01

Abstract excerpt

<p>Much has been written about the role of prediction in cognition in general, and language processing in particular, with some authors even claiming that prediction is the central goal of cognition. Attributing such a specific goal to cognition seems speculative, but prediction is generally held to play an important role in both perception and action. In empirical studies of language processing, however, measures...
