His research focuses on human information processing, human memory, and psycholinguistics, with a particular emphasis on sentence comprehension, memory retrieval mechanisms, and the cognitive processes underlying linguistic dependency resolution. His work integrates experimental psychology, neurolinguistics, and cognitive modeling to explore how language is processed in real time.
Key contributions include studies on retrieval interference in sentence processing, the role of working memory in syntactic and semantic composition, and the dynamics of attention and memory during language comprehension.
