Thank you #CCS2024 for the kind invitation! New academic milestone unlocked :)
Thanks to the organizers and huge congratulations on running such a wonderful conference!
Our second invited speaker of the day is @csqsiew The auditorium is full and ready to learn about the network structure of mental lexicons. If you aren’t around you can still follow the presentation online bit.ly/siew-presentations
a follow up to the question about Eminem claiming that 'orange' and 'porridge' rhyme - tho not technically phonological neighbors based on the 1-edit distance rule; Eminem makes them "rhyme" by playing around with the prosody and syllabic structure of those words :) #CCS2024
Second #CCS2024 invited speaker @csqsiew discusses the organization of mental lexicon networks

Very excited about this new paper @PNASNews:
pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23…
Key Q: what predicts how much young kids (👶)talk?
How much 🗣 kids heard predicted how much 👶talked, but other factors, e.g. mom’s education, didn’t. #PsychSci #DevPsy 🗣💬

📣New paper with @vigliocco_g and @Nareg_Kh in @cogsci_soc on iconicity and memory.
When it comes to imitative words (e.g., splash, meow), it seems people will THINK they have seen them before, even if they haven't.

Sadly, I will have to withdraw my talk this morning at Recognition II #psynom23, as I tested covid positive (after escaping so many waves!). If you are interested in the talk, you can find the slides at drive.google.com/file/d/1kRg……. I hope everyone takes care and stays healthy!
I made it to San Francisco for Psychonomics! #psynom23 I'll present a talk at the main conference, and two talks at SCiP. Three talks! Never again :)
