Competing theoretical accounts make distinct predictions about the role of different types of alternatives in implicature computation. Recent experimental work has begun to address this issue using priming paradigms (Chemla &amp; Bott 2016; Rees &amp; Bott 2018; Waldon &amp; Degen 2021; Marty et al. 2024). In this talk, I present an extension of the existing priming paradigm that includes both matrix and embedded (downward-entailing) contexts, as well as conditions that manipulate the visual salience of alternatives. The findings suggest that both embedding and visual highlighting influence the rate at which implicatures are derived. I will discuss the implications of these results for theories of implicature and alternative-based reasoning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Nadine Bade (University of Konstanz) Title: Shared Mechanisms Behind Local and Global Implicatures: Evidence from Priming Time: Friday, May 2nd, 3:30pm - 5pm Location: 32-141 Abstract: The mechanisms underlying implicature derivation remain a topic of active debate.
