Research questionHow does structural priming affect language-model sentence generation, and how do semantic coherence and lexical repetition interact with it?A language model completing a sentence may favor a syntactic construction used in preceding context, but that tendency can depend on meaning and repeated words. The difficulty is distinguishing structural influence from lexical and semantic alignment during generation.

It examines priming magnitude, semantic coherence, and lexico-semantic repetition, without establishing behavior beyond these generation settings.research paper · Sep 3, 2026
