, Chapter 1 – Introduction
The exam is written with 15 multiple choice questions and 3 open questions. Omitted or wrong
responses will not be counted. The final score will be given only by the sum of correct responses only
at the multiple choice questions plus up to 5 point for each open question.
1.1 - Introduction
Mental lexicon: dictionary in our head, consisting of representations for the forms and contents of
words.
- We have around 20.000 words in our brain.
- There are certain preferred patterns of analyzing the structure and meaning of sentences in
English.
1.2 – What is psycholinguistics?
Psycholinguistics: the study of the mental representations and processes involved in language use,
including the production, comprehension and storage of spoken and written language.
Questions about representations:
- How are words stored?
- How is the meaning of a sentence represented in our memory?
Questions about process
- How do we recognise words so effortlessly?
- How do we convert an idea into an utterance?
Outline sketch of language use
Language producer (speaker, writer)
- Goal: production of a message takes us from an underlying intention, through stages of
planning sentence structure and selecting words, to the articulation of the intention as a
consequence of sounds or letters.
Comprehender’s view (listener, reader)
Goal: perceive or recognise elements such as letters and sounds in the input, to recognise words an
to work out the connections between these words in sentence structure, in order to arrive at a
message-level interpretation.
- Bottom-up: processing based on information flow from lower levels of processing to higher
levels; from sensory input (the speech signal) to the lexicon (words)
- Top-down: processing guided by information from higher level (sentences/interpretation) to
lower level (words).
- Interactive processing: information flowing in both directions (bottom-up and to-down) as
well as between elements at the same level (recognizing one word had effect on the
likelihood of recognizing similar words). Most psycholinguist today support the idea of
interactive processing
