Expectation violation enhances the development of new abstract syntactic representations: evidence from an artificial language learning study
Prediction error is known to enhance priming effects for familiar syntactic structures; it also strengthens the formation of new declarative memories. Here, we investigate whether violating expectations may aid the acquisition of new abstract syntactic structures, too, by enhancing memory for indivi...
