Inhalt
Psycholinguistics explores the relationship between the human mind and language. It can be defined as the study of the mental representations and processes involved in language use (including storage, production and comprehension of spoken as well as written language; cf. Warren 2013: 4). The evidence exploited in psycholinguistic research draws on observations of performance (including errors), experimental designs, neuroimaging techniques and language disorders. In this seminar, the core areas of psycholinguistics will be explored, which are listed here along with some of their central questions:

Storage:

• How is the mental lexicon organized? Are words stored according to their form or their meaning, or both?
• Do phonemes and morphemes correspond to units in the brain? What about complex words and irregular forms?
• How do we store the meaning of a sentence or text in short- and long-term memory?

Production:

• Which stages are involved in the conversion of a message into an utterance?
• How do we find appropriate words and syntactic structures?
• How much of the production process is shared by speaking and writing?
• Are the pathways of the production process also involved in perception?

Perception:

• Which factors influence our recognition of words when we hear or read them?
• Does reading necessarily involve access to the sounds of words?
• What can we learn from processing problems caused by certain syntactic structures?
• How do we integrate the meaning that we decode with our mental representation of the text and with our world knowledge?

Based on reading assignments and oral presentations, participants in the seminar will gain an overview of the general consensus as well as of currently debated issues in the field.

The Übung that accompanies the Seminar/Übung (Wednesdays, 11.00-11.45h, U9/01.03) is designed to discuss oral presentations and handouts individually and/or in small groups. Individual arrangements will be made also, if necessary, concerning the time of the Übung. Therefore clashes with other courses scheduled for the same time slot as the Übung can be avoided.
