This repository contains the code for the experiments reported in
Production of syntactic alternations displays accessibility but not informativity effects. Goodwin, E. and Degen, J. (2024). In Proceedings of the 46th Annual Conference of the Cognitive Science Society.
- Experiment 1: Non-interactive picture description task. Effect of foregrounding on spray-load productions, without informativity manipulation.
- Experiment 1 Norming: Norming stimuli for affectedness
- Experiment 2: Interactive picture description task (participnats in dyads). Effect of informativity and foregrounding on spray-load productions.
experiments: original experiment code, as it was run
analysis: R files for the main analyses, visualizations, and data processing
models: RSA model

The norming experiment relies on an excellent custom plugin from Mateusz Wozniak to present participants with a response slider that does not automatically start at a particular value.
