NEUROCOGNITIVE MECHANISMS OF INTUITION IN ARTISTIC SPEECH: A PSYCHOLINGUISTIC ANALYSIS OF ANTICIPATORY EXPRESSIONS

This study explores the neurocognitive mechanisms of intuition in artistic speech and provides a psycholinguistic analysis of anticipatory expressions. Drawing on predictive processing theory, the research conceptualizes the human brain as an active system that continuously generates expectations and minimizes prediction error during language comprehension. The study examines how intuitive understanding emerges from the interaction between top-down cognitive models and bottom-up sensory input in the interpretation of artistic texts. Particular attention is given to anticipatory expressions as key linguistic elements that guide meaning construction by activating contextual and associative knowledge. The findings indicate that intuition is not a purely subjective phenomenon but a result of probabilistic inference and hierarchical prediction mechanisms. Furthermore, the analysis reveals that artistic speech enhances the role of intuition by increasing ambiguity, figurativeness, and contextual dependency. The study contributes to integrating neurocognitive and psycholinguistic approaches in understanding language processing and offers new insights into the nature of intuitive meaning-making in artistic discourse.
