<Kathleen M. Eberhard> studies <psycholinguistics>, especially the production of <language> and coordination during conversation. Her Notre Dame profile identifies research on subject-verb <grammatical agreement>, including a theoretical account and computational model published in 2005. It also documents her contribution to the <visual world paradigm>, which times listeners' fixations to objects during spoken comprehension.<Kathleen Eberhard at the University of Notre Dame>[Biography and Representative Publications]{ref}
These questions make grammar experimentally observable. For an illustrative production task, compare a singular head followed by a singular modifier with the same head followed by a plural modifier, while holding the intended <grammatical agreement> fixed. Errors and response timing can help discriminate accounts of how speakers build the utterance. This is a schematic experimental contrast, not a numerical result attributed to her work. Her institutional research statement also connects <language> production to bilingualism and the coordination of understanding in dialogue.
