Structural priming is a widely used psycholinguistic paradigm to study human sentence representations. In this work we propose a framework for using empirical priming patterns to build a theory characterizing the structural representations humans construct when processing sentences. This framework uses a new cognitively motivated parser, SPAWN, to generate quantitative …
