Four experiments were performed to examine the influence of sentence constraint and cue validity on the processing of expected and unexpected congruous sentence completions. Experiment I showed that high constraint sentences aided lexical decisions only for expected completions whereas low constraint contexts demonstrated a broader, although weaker context effect. Increasing the proportion of expected completions in Experiment 2 caused inhibition of lexical decisions for unexpected words appearing in high constraint sentences, A similar manipulation for low constraint sentences in Experiment 3 did not show such an effect for unexpected completions. The addition of an incongruous completion condition in Experiment 4 had a negligible effect on the relative proportions of facilitation found in every condition. These findings are consistent with the view that more featural restrictions are generated as sentence constraint and cue validity increase.
