First paper of my dissertation is out! We (@PolynSean and @brownschmidt) developed a family of computational models for a binary semantic classification task, in which participants judged target words for the referent’s size or animacy.

This proposal combines the principles of semantic projection by @gabe_grand @IbanDlank @ev_fedorenko @fpereira and is consistent with the instance theory of semantic memory.
English
We propose that when making a decision on a binary semantic classification task, humans use task prompts to retrieve instances representative of the extremes on that semantic dimension & compare the probe to those instances.

Tennessee has the 8th highest murder rate in the nation.
It ranks 44th among states for health outcomes.
And this is what the Governor is focused on.

Tennessee's Republican Gov. Bill Lee signed drag show restrictions into law on Thursday, making it the first state to severely limit the performances amid conservative outcry. bit.ly/3KTnHZ6

@emily7ellington @brownschmidt @APA Hey Emily, I know many have this perception! Happy to hear you found our work helpful 🙂

@ediachek @brownschmidt @APA Fascinating!!! I know I occasionally pause and 'mmmm' when I speak sometimes; my mouth can struggle to keep up with my brain! But I always felt it bought listeners some time to follow my flow...seems that may well be the case! Thanks so much for sharing.

Love seeing so much interest in our work🤩
That’s right: speech disfluencies aid language processing and improve memory for what was said @brownschmidt
Posting the link to our @APA JEP:LMC paper for anyone who might be interested

It's a mistake to stop saying "um" and "uh" altogether. Evidence: filler words signal that new information is coming, making it easier for listeners to understand and remember what comes next. Hesitations don't make you sound weak. They help you... uh... communicate clearly.

Speech disfluencies (e.g. "um", "uh" improve listeners' memory for speech (new research). They might also buy time for speakers to think (my commentary). *Other* researchers make ableist claim that "um" is better than "uh" because autistics say it less. 🔗ir.vanderbilt.edu/bitstream/hand…

Une récente étude de #psychologie (Diachek & Brown-Schmidt, 2022) montre que ponctuer son discours de "euh" permettrait d'en faciliter sa mémorisation !
Voici un court thread 🧵 pour vous expliquer comment les chercheurs sont venus à cette conclusion.
