The Department of Comparative Language Science and the Interdisciplinary Center for the Study of Language Evolution organize a workshop on Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Processing and Learning (X-PPL) on September 16 and 17. Keynote talks will be delivered by Elena Lieven (University of Manchester) and Asli Ozyurek (Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen).
X-PPL brings together the growing community of researchers working to expand the diversity of languages in the scope of experimental or corpus research on adults or acquisition. This research is driven by the recognition that typological diversity represents different opportunities to see processing and learning mechanisms at work. The bulk of processing and acquisition research represents only a small fraction of linguistic diversity, and this risks skewing both our theories and research questions.
More information can be found here. Registration is free. If you would like to attend, please register before September 15 under this link.
The program can be found here. We hope to see many of you there!
