Double Negation Without Double Effort: ERP Evidence From Mandarin Chinese
Accounts of negation processing, including two‐step simulation, pragmatic, and monotonicity‐based accounts, differ in their predictions about whether double negation requires additional cognitive effort relative to affirmation. Using eve...

Factors Influencing the Emergence of Dependency Length Minimization in Neural Agent Simulations
Given various grammatical options, language users prefer the word order choice that reduces the overall length of syntactic dependencies, a principle known as dependency length minimization (DLM). The origins of this preference remain an...

More Evidence for the Standard Account of Theory of Mind Development: A Reply to Fabricius (2026)
Fabricius argues that the results of a recent study of ours speak for a deflationary competence limitation account of Theory of Mind development. According to this account, children do not operate with proper mental state concepts until ...

One, Two, Three, Four… What's More? Successor Relations, not Mappings to Approximate Magnitudes, Support Learning the Later‐Greater Principle
As we count up, number words that occur later in our count denote greater quantities. Here, we tested whether children's understanding of this “later‐greater” principle originates from associating number words with approximate magnitudes...

Effect of Network Structure on the Spread of Linguistic Behavior
Theoretical and computational models predict that social‐network topology shapes the diffusion of linguistic forms, yet direct experimental evidence remains limited. Across three laboratory experiments, we tested whether network structur...

Implicit Nature of Visual Statistical Learning: The Importance of Participants’ Goals and Experimental Paradigm
In a recent Letter to the Editor in Cognitive Science , Németh et al. (2026) published a critical commentary in response to our experimental article on the study of visual statistical learning (visual SL) in children aged 3–9 years. The ...

Large Language Models Persuade Without Planning Theory of Mind
A growing body of work attempts to evaluate the theory of mind (ToM) abilities of humans and large language models (LLMs) using static, noninteractive question‐and‐answer benchmarks. However, theoretical work in the field suggests that f...

The Role of Space and Body in Referent Distinction Strategies: A Cross‐Cultural Comparison
The emergence of linguistic structure is shaped by interaction and cultural transmission as well as cognitive biases and social conventions. An important aspect of linguistic structure is reference distinction or “who did what to whom.” ...

Effects of Statistical Learning on Target Detection Speed Can Reflect Prediction
In a recent study in Cognitive Science , Sheinenson, Kleiman, and Siegelman found that statistical learning of visual pairs produces response time facilitation during target detection that is driven exclusively by the predictive value of...
