"Mechanisms of Structural Priming"

Abstract: 

Structural priming is a tendency to re-create a recently uttered or
recently heard syntactic structure in different words. In language
production, this tendency may occur independently of specific lexical
items, thematic roles, or word sequences. A proposed mechanism for the
phenomenon is a change in the cognitive procedures for creating sentences,
as a form of implicit learning. The talk will survey some old and new
evidence for this conception, focusing on the persistence of priming in
the performance of normal, amnesic, and simulated speakers.
