This study examines the processing of morphologically complex words focusing on how morphological (in addition to orthographic and semantic) factors affect bilingual word recognition. We report findings from a large experimental study with groups of bilingual (Turkish/German) speakers using the… read more
Felser, Claudia and Anna Jessen 2020 Brain responses elicited by implausible fillers and filled object gaps in GermanTypical and Impaired Processing in Morphosyntax, Torrens, Vincent (ed.), pp. 75–90 | Chapter
We report the results from two experiments on the processing of filler-gap dependencies in German using event-related potentials (ERPs). Our aim was to identify and isolate brain responses linked to semantic vs. syntactic integration processes. Using maximally parallel stimulus materials, we… read more
Jessen, Anna, João Veríssimo and Harald Clahsen 2018 Variability and consistency in late bilinguals’ morphology: An ERP production studyThe Mental Lexicon 13:2, pp. 186–214 | Article
Speaking a late-learned second language (L2) is supposed to yield more variable and less consistent output than speaking one’s first language (L1), particularly with respect to reliably adhering to grammatical morphology. The current study investigates both internal processes involved in encoding… read more
