J., & White, K. S. (2015). [[http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/cdev.12421/abstract?userIsAuthenticated=false&deniedAccessCustomisedMessage=|I Forget What That’s Called! Children's Online Processing of Disfluencies Depends on Speaker Knowledge]]. Child Development, 86(6), 1701–1709. doi:10.1111/cdev.12421 - ANP A friend recommend [[http://www.devontechnologies.com/|DevonThink]] which works with Mendeley and allows you to organize your papers, and search for related papers (you can give it a paper and it produces a list of papers in your collection that are related). - ANP [[http://wordbank.stanford.edu/|WordBank]] cool visualization of word acquisition. - ANP [[http://metalab.stanford.edu/|MetaLab]] super cool page with meta-analyses of infant language development - includes a doc on how to make your own meta-analysis . - ANP == What we did over last week == === Florian === 1. '''Edited''' CUNY abstracts (4). 1. Met with Mike Kaschak about various projects on syntactic adaptation and how to move forward. 1. '''Edited''' Thomas Hoeberg's thesis chapter. 1. Two more meetings about potential CUHK-UR grant on studying relearning of articulation in patients with apraxia. 1. Letters: 6 this week (0 new). === Kodi === 1. '''Wrote''' and '''submitted''' abstract for SVaLP 1. '''Analyzed data''' for Bradlow and Bent replication. so far, so good (mostly). 1. '''Working on''' CUNY abstract about accent adaptation. 1. Continued '''writing/revising''' review paper on language processing and social-indexical knowledge 1. Lots of '''mentoring''' about mixed effects modeling, analysis workflow, and the use of Rmarkdown for reproducible data reports. 1. '''Feedback''' to undergrads in BCS 206 on their conference application, based on their attempts to replicate Clarke & Garrett (2004) 1. Worked on '''job application materials''' 1. '''Built''' new website/blog using jekyll. (almost ready for launch) === Andrew === 1. Met with Olga and Stephen about self check audit for consent forms 2. GChat'd with Dave about deploying his subject anonymizer 3. Made sure all the lab computers have antivirus software in advance of university IT audit on 11/17. Failed miserably on Linux, because AV makers just don't give a crap. 4. Looked into installing Shiny Server on www, but no initial luck, because it's packaged for the 2012 Ubuntu LTS with a pre-[[http://heartbleed.com/|Heartbleed]] SSL package and Debian refuses to install it. The build process looks... painful. 5. Initial full version of language survey. Still needs some cleanup and made into something that others can just include in their HITs. 6. Dealt with scheduled Health and Safety inspection that I wasn't told about until they came to the door looking for Florian. 7. Started figuring out how to use [[https://www.docker.com/|Docker]] because the system [[http://couchdb.apache.org/|CouchDB]] on www is screwed up. === Olga === 1. Worked with Andrew and Stephen to create a new system for self check audit for consent forms 2. Worked on the tutorial (this past weekend) to go through some of the checklist items 3. Sent Linda and Zach RA hours for the RAs this semester, checked in with Chris and got his reported hours === Esteban === 1. Gave feedback on some CUNY abstracts. 1. Returned corrections to proofs for a paper. 1. Finished preparing materials for eye-tracking pilot. 1. Cleaned up files in time for audit. 1. Caught up on a debate between the Goldstein group and the Goldrick group ([[http://doi.org/10.1080/01690960903395380|part 1]], [[http://doi.org/10.1080/01690965.2013.807347|part 2]], [[http://doi.org/10.1080/01690965.2013.834063|part 3]]) 1. Continued revisions on the VOT paper. === Dave === 1. '''Figures''' for LLC paper on socioindexical speech perception. 1. Cleaned up '''anonymizer''' code and strategized with Andrew on deployment. 1. Drafted '''specific aims''' (in bullet point form) for DP5 1. Applied for some more '''jobs''' 1. '''Analyzed''' speech fMRI data some more (and presented in lab meeting). === Sarah === === Dan === 1. Ran "cohort" version of adaptation-attention study - weird, probably meaningless results 1. Analysis of data for adaptation-attention study 1. Wrote up a draft of a CUNY abstract for automatic naming project - not gonna submit it after talking to Mike 1. Conducted private rituals and used insights to dream up new designs for more language-y follow ups to automatic naming 1. Careful checking of lists for curtains replication 1. Applied for an internship at Duolingo === Amanda === 1. Spent the week eating, breathing and sleeping on my BU talk. 1. Oversaw 6 kids participating in my study. 1. Gave the above mentioned talk (or I will have by the time we meet - it's on Sunday morning). 1. Chatted with some people about my studies, caught up with old friends, and talked to some people about Thais' work. 1. Chatted with [[http://mikabr.github.io/|Mika Braginsky]] (aka the person responsible for the super sweet [[http://wordbank.stanford.edu/|wordbank]] site) of Mike Frank's lab, she's applying to UR to work with Steve. She seems cool and smart, so I look forward to seeing her at interviews. 1. Hung out a bit with [[http://www.brockferguson.com/|Brock Ferguson]] who is apparently looking for a post-doc and has once expressed interest in being at UR (though admittedly, despite originally being from SW Ontario he's now mostly based in the PNW). He wrote a nice little package to analyze eyetracking data in R (see: his page), and designs super great studies. === Zach === 1. '''Wrote''' CUNY abstract 1. Did a lot of analysis for CUNY abstract 1. '''Met''' with Wednesday for Robbie project on conditional confusability 1. '''Finished''' Robbie's homework 1. '''Started''' HLP Lab presentation === Linda === 1. Ran additional experiments for Bradlow and Bent (single talker and multi talker conditions). 1. Ran experiment to double participants in subtitle project, leading to explosion (basically significant effect in opposite direction...) 1. Lots of analysis on why said explosion occurred. 1. Worked on a co-presentation (entitled: Incorporating gestures into models of human-robot interaction) for Tom Howard's lab meeting. We're presenting on Monday. 1. Worked on CUNY abstract for subtitle project. 1. Finished Robbie's final HW assignment. 1. Met with Carol and looked at fmri data (from Dave's animal learning project for Robbie's final proj). Started to understand how to analyze fmri data and read matlab code. === Maryam === === Wednesday === 1. '''Collected and analyzed''' data for binomials experiment. It went terribly.... 1. '''Meetings''' with Roger to talk about data 1. '''Collected and analyzed''' count data from Google Books for uncertainty maintenance project 1. '''Read''' some NLP papers relevant to uncertainty maintenance project 1. '''Finished''' Robbie homework
