Special Issues of Language and Cognitive Processes
Experimental and Theoretical Advances in Prosody: A Special Issue of Language and Cognitive Processes
1st Edition
Edited
By Duane G. Watson, Michael Wagner, Edward Gibson
October 14, 2024
Prosody is the rhythm, stress and intonation of speech, which encodes information that is not encoded by the syntax or words of an utterance. Prosody is critical for parsing speech, constructing syntactic structure, and building a representation of the conversational discourse model, among other ...
Morphology in Language Comprehension, Production and Acquisition: A Special Issue of Language and Cognitive Processes
1st Edition
Edited
By Raymond Bertram, Jukka Hyönä, Matti Laine
October 14, 2024
Does darkness lead to happiness? Is there corn in the corner? These are questions that make - to some extent - semantically sense, but for researchers interested in the role of morphology in word processing they make morphologically sense as well. This Special Issue on Morphological Processing is ...
Speech Recognition in Adverse Conditions: Explorations in Behaviour and Neuroscience
1st Edition
Edited
By Sven Mattys, Ann Bradlow, Matthew Davis, Sophie Scott
October 14, 2024
Speech recognition in ‘adverse conditions’ has been a familiar area of research in computer science, engineering, and hearing sciences for several decades. In contrast, most psycholinguistic theories of speech recognition are built upon evidence gathered from tasks performed by healthy listeners on...

1st Edition
Edited
By James A. Hampton, Helen Moss
March 05, 2019
Concepts lie at the heart of our mental life, supporting a myriad of cognitive functions - including thinking and reasoning, object recognition, memory, and language comprehension and production. The nature of concepts and their representation in the mind and brain has been studied from many ...

Spoken Word Access Processes (SWAP): A Special Issue of Language and Cognitive Processes
1st Edition
Edited
By Anne Cutler, James MCQUEEN
July 23, 2015
Spoken word access processes are the mental processes which underlie our ability to recognise spoken words. They are the perceptual processes which take the sequence of buzzes, bursts and chirps that make up the raw speech signal and convert them into a sequence of words. This edited volume ...
Advances in Morphological Processing: A Special Issue of Language and Cognitive Processes
1st Edition
Edited
By Ram Frost, Jonathan Grainger
June 23, 2015
Ten years ago, a group of researchers investigating the processing of morphological information met in the south of France to discuss how morphology affects word recognition, perception and production from a cross-linguistic perspective. This special issue is the fourth volume to expose the results...
Lexical Representations And Sentence Processing: A Special Issue of Language And Cognitive Processes
1st Edition
By MaryEllen C. MacDonald
June 23, 2015
Until recently, much research in language comprehension operated under the assumption that comprehenders initially identified the syntactic structure of sentences they were hearing or reading without regard to the meanings of the words in the sentences. A significant amount of recent work has ...

1st Edition
By Hsuan-Chih Chen, Xiaolin Zhou
June 23, 2015
In recent years, there has been an upsurge of interest in the processing of major East Asian languages such as Chinese, Japanese and Korean. These languages, due to their salient differences in structure from European languages, provide challenging opportunities to explore both language-specific ...
