On Language and Connectionism: Analysis of a Parallel Distributed Processing Model of Language Acquisition
- COGNITION
, 1988
"... Does knowledge of language consist of mentally-represented rules? Rumelhart and McClelland have described a connectionist (parallel distributed processing) model of the acquisition of the past tense in English which successfully maps many stems onto their past tense forms, both regular (walk/walked) ..."

Echoes of echoes? An episodic theory of lexical access
- Psychological Review
, 1998
"... In this article the author proposes an episodic theory of spoken word representation, perception, and production. By most theories, idiosyncratic aspects of speech (voice details, ambient noise, etc.) are considered noise and are filtered in perception. However, episodic theories suggest that percep ..."

Words and voices: Episodic traces in spoken word identification and recognition memory
- J. Exp. Psych: Learn., Mem., & Cog
, 1996
"... Most theories of spoken word identification assume that variable speech signals are matched to canonical representations in memory. To achieve this, idiosyncratic voice details are first normalized, allowing direct comparison of the input to the lexicon. This investigation assessed both explicit and ..."

) first described the mental lexicon, a collection of words in long-term memory that mediates perceptual access to lexical knowledge. The lexicon has since been a focus of extensive investigation and theorizing. Painting in broad strokes, there are two basic views on lexical representation: Abstractionist
Probabilistic Phonotactics and Neighborhood Activation in Spoken Word Recognition
- Journal of Memory and Language
, 1999
"... nvestigated the implications of this information for the representation and processing of spoken language. Research on phonotactics in linguistics has examined the representations of various types of sequential constraints and segmental co-occurrence relations in syllables and words (Frisch, Broe, ..."

Alterations in brain and immune function produced by mindfulness meditation
- Psychosomatic Medicine

From Computing With Numbers To Computing With Words From Manipulation Of Measurements To Manipulation of Perceptions
- Appl. Math. Comput. Sci
"... Computing, in its usual sense, is centered on manipulation of numbers and symbols. In contrast, computing with words, or CW for short, is a methodology in which the objects of computation are words and propositions drawn from a natural language, e.g., small, large, far, heavy, not very likely, the p ..."

The Mental Representation of Semitic Words
"... This article is concerned with external evidence bearing on the nature of the units stored in the mental lexicons of speakers of Semitic lan-guages. On the basis of aphasic metathesis errors we collected in a single case study, we suggest that roots can be accessed as independent morphological units ..."

Toward a Theory of Social Practices. A Development in Culturalist Theorizing
- European Journal of Social Theory
, 2002
"... This article works out the main characteristics of ‘practice theory’, a type of social theory which has been sketched by such authors as Bourdieu, Giddens, Taylor, late Foucault and others. Practice theory is presented as a conceptual alternative to other forms of social and cultural theory, above a ..."
