“…These functional interpretations are based on the observation that the P600 was modulated by semantic expectancy (Gunter, Friederici, & Schriefers, 2000;Gunter, Stowe, & Mulder, 1997), by probability of stimulus occurrence (Coulson et al, 1998), and, moreover, by thematic and semantic-pragmatic anomalies (Ericsson et al, 2008;Vissers, Chwilla, & Kolk, 2006;Gunter et al, 2000). For example, a late positivity was elicited by utterances such as "The cat that fled from the mice" that were syntactically correct but contained a semantic reversal anomaly (van Herten, Kolk, & Chwilla, 2005;Kolk et al, 2003).…”
