Summary of the experimental design.

<p>The manipulated factors were: 2 sentence values (match vs. mismatch) x 2 spatial prepositions (“über” (‘over’) vs. “unter” (‘below’)). Mismatch trials were included to give participants a clear task and will not be examined for the eye-movement analyses; but they will be examined in the response time analysis. Trials with different spatial prepositions were included for counterbalancing reasons and we collapsed across preposition in the analyses.
