verbal working memory and sentence comprehension

[Evan Kidd]

Dear List members,

 

I am currently reviewing the literature on the role of verbal working memory
in sentence comprehension. By 'verbal working memory' I mean that part of
memory typically measured by span tasks, such as Gaulin & Campbell (1994) or
digit-span (so not phonological short-term memory).  I think I have most of
the literature covered, but it feels like a rather small category, so I'd be
grateful for any suggestions. All types of populations (e.g., typically
developing, SLI, poor comprehenders) and methods of comprehension (e.g.,
offline, online) accepted.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Evan
