Book Description
How do we understand what we hear or read? How do we do it when what we hear or read is uncommon, ambiguous, non-canonical, or unexpected? How does being bilingual or suffering from a pathology affect our ability to understand the myriad of linguistic structures around us and, consequently, our ability to use them? This edited volume brings together cutting-edge experimental studies that untangle how speakers with different profiles understand and use linguistic structures of very different natures. The reader will find a detailed overview of the experimental models and techniques that can be applied to their study from a psycholinguistic approach.

Introducing Linguistic Research
Author: Svenja Voelkel
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316946533
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 413
Book Description
Over the past decade, conducting empirical research in linguistics has become increasingly popular. The first of its kind, this book provides an engaging and practical introduction to this exciting versatile field, providing a comprehensive overview of research aspects in general, and covering a broad range of subdiscipline-specific methodological approaches. Subfields covered include language documentation and descriptive linguistics, language typology, corpus linguistics, sociolinguistics and anthropological linguistics, cognitive linguistics and psycholinguistics, and neurolinguistics. The book reflects on the strengths and weaknesses of each single approach and on how they interact with one-another across the study of language in its many diverse facets. It also includes exercises, example student projects and recommendations for further reading, along with additional online teaching materials. Providing hands-on experience, and written in an engaging and accessible style, this unique and comprehensive guide will give students the inspiration they need to develop their own research projects in empirical linguistics.

The Cambridge Handbook of Psycholinguistics
Author: Michael Spivey
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139536141
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 1297
Book Description
Our ability to speak, write, understand speech and read is critical to our ability to function in today's society. As such, psycholinguistics, or the study of how humans learn and use language, is a central topic in cognitive science. This comprehensive handbook is a collection of chapters written not by practitioners in the field, who can summarize the work going on around them, but by trailblazers from a wide array of subfields, who have been shaping the field of psycholinguistics over the last decade. Some topics discussed include how children learn language, how average adults understand and produce language, how language is represented in the brain, how brain-damaged individuals perform in terms of their language abilities and computer-based models of language and meaning. This is required reading for advanced researchers, graduate students and upper-level undergraduates who are interested in the recent developments and the future of psycholinguistics.
