      abstract     = {This study focuses on a factor known to increase sentence
                      processing complexity – negation. We sought to distill out
                      of negation a logical property – Inference Reversal – to
                      see whether it, and not an actual negation word, determines
                      this complexity. First, we tested a negation-less pair of
                      polar operators (at most, at least) in Hebrew. We found that
                      processing time for sentences containing the Inference
                      Reversing at most lagged behind those with at least. Second,
                      we compared the processing of sentences containing two
                      Inference Reversing operators (not less) to sentences with
                      zero (ø, more) and one (not more, less). Since two
                      Inference Reversing Operators annul Inference Reversal
                      (“two negatives make a positive”), we asked whether
                      their processing cost is annulled, or rather cumulative.
                      Surprisingly, RTnot less was shorter than RTnot more. These
                      findings lead to the conclusion that even when covert,
                      Inference Reversal is an important determinant of processing
                      complexity.},
