TLDR
In this paper, a series of experiments is reported in which subjects describe simple visual scenes by means of both sentential and non-sentential responses, and the data support the following statements about the lexicalization (word finding) process.

A theory of lexical access in speech production

TL;DR: The authors focused on experimental reaction time evidence in support of the theory and showed that the speaker monitors the output and self-corrects, if necessary, selfcorrecting to correct the output.

Toward a mechanistic psychology of dialogue

TL;DR: A mechanistic account of dialogue, the interactive alignment account, is proposed and used to derive a number of predictions about basic language processes, and the need for a grammatical framework that is designed to deal with language in dialogue rather than monologue is considered.

Lexical Access in Aphasic and Nonaphasic Speakers

TL;DR: An interactive 2-step theory of lexical retrieval was applied to the picture-naming error patterns of aphasic and nonaphasic speakers, arguing that simple quantitative alterations to a normal processing model can explain much of the variety among patient patterns in naming.

An integrated theory of language production and comprehension

TL;DR: It is asserted that producing and understanding are interwoven, and that this interweaving is what enables people to predict themselves and each other.

Statistical Principles in Experimental Design

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce the principles of estimation and inference: means and variance, means and variations, and means and variance of estimators and inferors, and the analysis of factorial experiments having repeated measures on the same element.

The "Tip of the Tongue" Phenomenon

TL;DR: For instance, the authors found that the closer a user to successful recall, the more accurate the information he possessed, such as the number of syllables in the missing word, and the location of the primary stress, while in the TOT state.

Q1. What are the contributions in this paper?

The data support the following statements about the lexicalization ( word finding ) process. 

The authors feel that this set of ideas, which are in need of further experimental testing, provides a useful and attractive framework for designing more detailed process models of word finding in human speakers. 

The new assumption the authors are forced to make is that there are lexical processing units corresponding to their pre-phonological Ll-items. 

If SV responses do not involve any action processing of a lexical nature, then shifting towards a new set of action names will not be expected to disrupt performance, except for some deterioration due to temporary factors such as distraction or loss of concentration. 

The locus of typicality and level of abstraction effects, accordiig to tlhe standard interpretation in the literature, is the name retrieval stage. 

In sum, the new model predicts a substantial disruption of performance in both SV and VS reaction times following the transition to new verbs.
