Natalia Morozova and Dagmar Jung conduct Workshop on Experimental Psycholinguistic Methods for Underdescribed Languages in Peru
Natalia Morozova, Dagmar Jung and others led a successful workshop on experimental psycholinguistic methods for underdescribed languages. The workshop was held in collaboration with the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP) and the CHANA Scientific Research Station, for young researchers from interdisciplinary fields in Lima and Pucallpa.
In the first week of the workshop, students built a solid foundation in core psycho- and neurolinguistics methods. NCCR Evolving Language internal and external experts, in close collaboration with PUCP researchers, led a series of lectures, seminars, and hands-on lab sessions focusing on eye-tracking and EEG.
During the second week, students travelled all the way to the Peruvian rainforest, under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Arrate Isasi-Isasmendi (UPPA-CNRS & NCCR) and Dr. Natalia Morozova (UZH & NCCR). Working in small groups, students developed their own research questions, designed experimental protocols, and tested their studies with real participants. This process allowed them to experience the full research cycle, from conceptualisation to data collection.
This event was made possible through the dedicated contributions of lecturers and organisers from PUCP researchers Roberto Zariquiey, Renato Paredes, Mari Fernández, Mariana Poblete, Daniel Falcón, and Diana Arizaga and NCCR-affiliated researchers Dagmar Jung, Arrate Isasi-Isasmendi Landaluze, and Natalia Morozova.
