Journal ArticleDOI

Memory interference during language processing.

TL;DR: The authors studied the operation of working memory in language comprehension by examining the reading of complex sentences, finding the poorer language comprehension performance typically observed for object-extraction compared with subject-extracted forms was found to depend strongly on the mixture of types of NPs in a sentence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of noun phrase type on sentence complexity

TL;DR: In this article, a series of self-paced reading time experiments was performed to assess how characteristics of noun phrases (NPs) contribute to the difference in processing difficulty between object-and subject-extracted relative clauses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Similarity-based interference during language comprehension: Evidence from eye tracking during reading.

TL;DR: The results are interpreted as indicating that similarity-based interference occurs online during the comprehension of complex sentences and that the degree of memory accessibility conventionally associated with different types of NPs does not have a strong effect on sentence processing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physician Non-adherence to Colonoscopy Interval Guidelines in the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System.

TL;DR: In a managed care setting with salaried physicians, endoscopists recommend repeat colonoscopy sooner than guidelines for more than one third of patients, which could reduce overuse of Colonoscopy and associated healthcare costs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Underuse and Overuse of Colonoscopy for Repeat Screening and Surveillance in the Veterans Health Administration

TL;DR: The need for system-level improvements to facilitate the appropriate delivery of colonoscopy that is based on individual risk is highlighted, as more than one fourth of patients with low-risk adenomas received follow-up colonoscopies too early, whereas more than half of those with high-riskAdenomas did not undergo surveillance Colonoscopy as recommended.
