This repository contains two experimentss testing the difference in meaning between German *auch* ('also') vs. *noch* ('in addition', 'still'). Both can be used as additive particles. We test the hypothesis that the meaning difference has to do with a shift in topic situations, which should be reflected in a difference wrt. to accommodation.
- Exp. 1: A pre-test in which we assess plausibility (rating study with written materials)
- Exp. 2: The main experiment in which we compare the accommodation behavior of *auch* and *noch* (combination of content questions + felicity ratings with written contexts and auditory target stimuli)
We report on these experiments in the manuscript "The German additive particle 'noch': testing the role of topic situations", submitted to *Glossa*.
