Results of Experiment 5. In the grammatical condition, each pair of triplets was merged by the word “thousand.” In the fragmented condition, the word “thousand” was misplaced at the end of each stimulus (number-word sequence). Supporting the idea of a cross-triplet representation, i.e., that the number’s syntactic representation can merge words from two different triplets, the morpheme error rate, digit error rate, and class error rate were lower in the grammatical condition than in the fragmented condition. Asterisks denote the significance of the Condition factor in the linear mixed model described in the text (all p < .001)
