Linguistic syncopation: Meter-syntax alignment affects sentence comprehension and sensorimotor synchronization
The hierarchical organization of speech rhythm into meter putatively confers cognitive affordances for perception, memory, and motor coordination. Meter also aligns with phrasal structure in systematic ways. In this paper, we show that this alignment affects the robustness of syntactic comprehension...
