This course introduces the psychology of language or psycholinguistics. The use of language distinguishes humans from animals. Although some animal communication systems may be considered as rudimentary forms of language, human· language differs sharply from animal communications in its cognitive and social functions, and it is also an important vehicle for our thought, with the potential to extend, refine, and direct thinking. Therefore the interaction of language with other cognitive abilities is the central focus of the course. Psycholinguistics asks many important questions like the following. How do people use language to understand each other? What enables children to learn to speak without someone explicitly teaching them the grammar? Why do people have so much trouble to learn a second language in their adulthood? What kind of trouble do brain- damaged patients have with speaking and understanding? Are we able to develop robots to speak and understand as humans do? And finally, does our language affect the way we think? In our course, we will focus on the issues and debates that surround this rapidly developing interdisciplinary field. Spring semester, odd years.
