Testing the stem dominance hypothesis: meaning analysis of inflected words and prepositional phrases.

We tested the hypothesis that lexical-semantic access of inflected words is governed by the word stem. Object drawings overlaid with a dot/arrow marking position/movement were matched with corresponding linguistic expressions like "from the house". To test whether the stem dominates lexica...
