Decode the secrets of language and the brain with this guide to the cognitive and neural mechanisms of human communication.
This book provides a great exploration of the cognitive and neural mechanisms at the foundations of language processing, acquisition, and evolution. Integrating insights from psychology, neuroscience, and linguistic theory, it illuminates the complexities of human language. Here are the key areas covered:
Neural Basis of Language Acquisition
- Examines critical periods and brain adaptability in learning new languages.
- Highlights how neural plasticity facilitates language learning across the lifespan.
Bilingualism and Multilingualism
- Explores cognitive flexibility and neural efficiency in bilinguals.
- Studies enhanced executive functions and cognitive resilience in managing multiple languages.
- Investigates neural underpinnings of code-switching and the brain’s sophisticated control mechanisms.
Genetic Bases of Language Disorders
- Discusses specific genes such as FOXP2 and CNTNAP2 and their roles in neural development.
- Examines how genetic variations influence language processing and acquisition.
- Provides insights into the biological foundations of language disorders.
Technological Advancements in AI and Language Technologies
- Analyzes the impact of AI on human language processing and acquisition.
- Explores integration of AI in language learning tools, machine translation, and predictive text.
- Highlights cognitive implications and ethical considerations of AI technologies.
Cognitive Dimensions of Language Processing
- Explores syntax, semantics, and pragmatics through neural network studies.
- Investigates the role of executive control in managing linguistic tasks.
- Considers cognitive benefits of language learning apps and AI-driven personalized learning experiences.
Language Recovery and Rehabilitation Post-Brain Injury
- Provides insights into neural plasticity and cognitive development.
- Offers a comparative analysis of therapeutic approaches for language disorders.
- Emphasizes the importance of personalized interventions and early diagnosis.
PSYCHOLINGUISTICS AND NEUROLINGUISTICS offers a comprehensive perspective on the cognitive and neural foundations of language, enhancing our understanding of linguistic processes and their broader implications. This scholarly work is an essential resource for anyone interested in the dynamic relationship between language, cognition, and the brain.
This book is part of Daniel Dinkelman's Linguistics series.
