Abstract

Here we elicit sentence completions via a Cloze task as an index of comprehenders’ expectations about upcoming material (Taylor 1953). We manipulate the salience of the speaker and show that the more aware participants are of the speaker as an intentional communicator, the more informative they expect the speaker’s contribution to be.
