ON-LINE METHODS IN CHILDREN’S LANGUAGE PROCESSING
March 21, 2006 – March 22, 2006 – New York
Understanding how children process language, in real time, is necessary for building comprehensive theories about language acquisition. This workshop is the first scientific gathering specifically dedicated to a new field of research that explores such issues, experimental developmental psycholinguistics. This workshop provides a forum in which scholars from different areas of expertise (psycholinguistics, language acquisition, and cognitive neuroscience), particularly those interested in applying on-line methods to study children’s language processing, will discuss how current and developing empirical approaches can inform about language processing mechanisms in children.
