Our work may suggest that speakers are adopting less of an incremental production strategy, as well as supports the role of affordance-based information in scene descriptions given that speakers are ordering object mentions based on object-level semantic features.

Check out our newest publication with Gwen Rehrig and @fernandaedi which addresses the linearization problem in multi-utterance language production! 🧵

Speakers are more likely to first mention objects that they are likely to interact with, “interactable” objects, when providing a description of a real-world scene.

@fernandaedi @yEvb0 @bevcotter That is correct!

The punchline? We found that object-level semantic information predicted order of mention, which we interpreted as the role of object semantics in scene viewing and description.

Big things have happened in the last week! Check out our new preprint with @gweezlouise and @fernandaedi which looks at speakers’ production strategies for multi-sentence utterances https://t.co/PPteycgCiI

[Madison Barker @mbarkyy]

We were interested in which semantic features of real-world scenes would predict ordering strategies for discourse-level speech.

Questions you should not ask a PhD student:
1. How’s your research going?
2. When are you graduating?

Questions you SHOULD ask a PhD student:
1. I found some money; would you like it?
2. I found some food; would you like some?
