In our experimental pragmatics research, we aim to uncover systematic correlations between the formal properties of various mechanisms involved in discourse construction and their cognitive processing. These studies offer insights into how speakers store, organize, and connect mental representations, as well as how these representations are modified during communication. By exploring these cognitive processes, we gain a deeper understanding of how language is processed and interpreted in real-time interactions.
