Performing a task for the first time assists the speaker in linguistic formulation by priming lemmas and associated syntactic, morphological, and phonological information and activating syntactic building procedures.
“It also assists the speaker in the linguistic formulation of their message (Levelt, 1989(Levelt, , 1999) ) in terms of priming lemmas in the mental lexicon as well as the syntactic, morphological and phonological information associated with them, and activating syntactic building procedures (Skehan, 2014).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
