Course Content
The course aims to create a critical background on the central topics in human language processing. It focuses on the mechanisms of comprehension and production processes, and how they interact. It presents models and case studies in human language processing in selected domains ( e.g., morphosyntactic, semantic or pragmatic processing), selected modalities (e.g., comprehension, production, listening, reading, dialogue), and selected populations (children, individuals with developmental or acquired cognitive impairment, healthy adults, native versus non-native speakers). This will equip students with the theoretical perspective necessary to conduct research in the field of experimental language sciences.
