“…Models of syntactic priming differ in how they account for the inverse preference effect (Chang, 2009; Chang et al, 2006; Cho et al, 2020; MacDonald, 2013; Reitter et al, 2011), though several borrow components from models of action production (e.g., Anderson et al, 2004; Botvinick & Plaut, 2004; Pomerleau, 1991). This overlap suggests an anticipation of domain-general effects of reuse, such as those reported here.…”

“…This overlap suggests an anticipation of domain-general effects of reuse, such as those reported here. It has recently been argued that activation-based theories may be better suited to account for self-priming effects, which arguably are prevalent in both domains (see Cho et al, 2020). While our findings cannot adjudicate between alternative models, we see the current study, with its focus on commonalities across quite different domains, as a useful step in further understanding changes in behaviour that can be described as priming or hysteresis.…”

Hysteresis in motor planning and syntactic priming in language planning refer to the influence of prior production history on current production behaviour. Computational efficiency accounts of action hysteresis and theoretical accounts of syntactic priming both argue that reusing an existing plan is less costly than generating a novel plan. Despite these similarities across motor and language frameworks, research on planning in these domains has largely been conducted independently. The current study adapted an existing language paradigm to mirror the incremental nature of a manual motor task in order to investigate the presence of parallel hysteresis effects across domains. We observed asymmetries in production choice for both the motor and language tasks that resulted from the influence of prior history. Further, these hysteresis effects were more exaggerated for subordinate production forms implicating an inverse preference effect that spanned domain. Consistent with computational efficiency accounts, across both tasks participants exhibited reaction time savings on trials in which they reused a recent production choice. Together, these findings lend support to the broader notion that there are common production biases that span both motor and language domains.

“…A linear mixed effect regression model will be applied to compare intervention arms against the control at baseline and stimulated measures for the HPA axis or the retinal-SCN-pineal axis comprising cortisol, melatonin, and sAA [106]. Baseline characteristics of patients from each group will be compared applying independent t tests, 2-way repeated-measures ANOVA, and the Fisher exact test.…”

Background The medical community is beginning to recognize that retinitis pigmentosa (RP), due to its disabling progression, eventually leads to a reduction in the patient´s quality of life, a direct economic impact, and an increase in the burden on the health care system. There is no curative treatment for the origin of the disease, and most of the current interventions fail in reducing the associated negative psychological states, such as anxiety and depression, which lead to increased variability of vision and pose a continuous threat to the patient’s independence. Objective The aim of this study is to assess the effect of oral melatonin (OM) administration alone and combined with short-wavelength light (SWL)–blocking filters on patients with RP and test their effectiveness in improving the level of stress and sleep problems in many of these patients. Methods We have developed a low-cost therapy protocol for patients with RP with sleep disorders and negative psychological stress. Patients will be randomized to receive a combined intervention with SWL-blocking filters and OM, SWL-blocking filters alone, or OM alone. There will also be a nonintervention arm as a control group. This study will be conducted across 2 retinal units in patients with RP with sleep disorders and high perceived stress and anxiety score reports. Patients will be assessed in the preintervention period, weekly during the 4 weeks of intervention, and then at 6 months postintervention. The primary outcomes are the differences in changes from baseline to postintervention in hormone release (α-amylase, cortisol, and melatonin) and sleep quality, as measured with the visual analog scale. Secondary outcome measures include clinical macular changes, as measured with optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography; retinal function, as measured using the visual field and best-corrected visual acuity; sleep data collected from personal wearables; and several patient-reported variables, such as self-recorded sleep diaries, quality of life, perceived stress, and functional status. Results This project is still a study protocol and has not yet started. Bibliographic research for information for its justification began in 2020, and this working group is currently seeking start-up funding. As soon as we have the necessary means, we will proceed with the registration and organization prior to the preliminary phase. Conclusions In this feasibility randomized clinical controlled trial, we will compare the effects of SWL blocking alone, administration of OM alone, and a combined intervention with both in patients with RP. We present this study so that it may be replicated and incorporated into future studies at other institutions, as well as applied to additional inherited retinal dystrophies. The goal of presenting this protocol is to aid recent efforts in reducing the impact of sleeping disorders and other psychological disorders on the quality of life in patients with RP and recovering their self-autonomy. In addition, the results of this study will represent a significant step toward developing a novel low-cost therapy for patients with RP and validating a novel therapeutic target.

Syntactic priming and individual preferences

This paper analyses the relation between syntactic priming/persistence and individual preferences in the variation between the two forms of the Spanish past subjunctive (-ra vs -se). The analysis finds that the probability of repetition of one of these variants is governed by an interaction between individual preferences and the difference between self- and other-priming. Previous use of a variant by another speaker is more likely to lead to persistence than previous use by the current speaker in the case that the current speaker does not usually prefer usage of the variant in question. However, if the current speaker prefers usage of the variant in question, this situation is inverted. These findings suggest that for speakers who prefer usage of the primed variant, self-priming in corpus data might actually be more adequately explained as an effect of individual preferences.
