Syntactic representation of missing-verb anomalous utterances in Mandarin: Evidence from structural priming.
Article in Memory & cognition, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Theories of how people interpret utterances with verb-related anomalies are chiefly based on English, but relatively little is known about the syntactic representation of missing-verb anomalous utterances in Mandarin, which has strikingly different typological features. In the current study, two experiments in structural priming paradigm were carried out to investigate whether native Mandarin speakers reconstructed a full syntactic form of missing-verb anomalous utterances. Our study shows that the magnitude of priming following a missing-verb anomalous sentence is equivalent to that following an error-free sentence, indicating that native Mandarin speakers reconstruct a full syntactic representation of missing-verb anomalous utterances. The results thus provide robust evidence for the syntactic reconstruction account.
