  1. PSY 369: Psycholinguistics Review for Exam 3

  2. Exam coverage • Chapters • 10 Language development: early • 11 language development: later • 12 Language development: processes and debates • 13 Brain and Language • 14 Language and thought

  3. Language development: Some terms Assimilation Babbling categorical perception child-directed speech Coalescence Codability Cognitive constraints Cooing Critical period hypothesis Fast mapping Feral/isolated children 'fis' phenomenon Holophrases Idiomorphs Mean length of utterances Metalinguistic awareness Motherese Mutual exclusivity bias Negative evidence Ostensive definitions Overextensions Overregularization Parameter setting Phonological awareness Prelinguistic communication Prosodic factors Reduction Reduplicated babbling Reduplication Referential strategy Semantic bootstrapping Sequential bilingualism Simultaneous bilingualism Taxonomic constraint Underextensions Variegated babbling Whole object bias

  4. Language development: Issues • Imitation vs. innateness • Arguments for and against (e.g., critical periods) • Universal (typical) pattern of development • e.g., 6 months, 12 months, … • Cooing -> babbling -> words -> sentences • Emergence of syntax and morphology • What do we learn about language before we’re born? • Categorical perception in infants • Extensions of meaning • One-word per referent heuristic • Fast mapping • Whole object constraint, Taxonomic constraint, Mutual exclusivity • Memory (words) and rules approach to morphological development • Feedback: negative and positive • Second language learning

  5. Brain and language: Some terms & issues Broca’s Aphasia Conduction aphasia Direct electrical stimulation ERP technique Geschwind Model fMRI Lateralization of language functions Phrenology Split brain patients Wada technique Wernicke’s aphasia

  6. Language and thought: Some terms Basic (focal) color terms Categorical perception Color hierarchy Counting systems (cross-linguistic) Codability of color names Color discrimination tasks Language transfer Linguistic determinism Linguistic relativity Inner speech Benjamin Lee Whorf

  7. Questions? • Exam format the same as the past two exams • Multiple choice • Vocabulary matching • Short answer • Slightly longer answers

  8. Future classes • Thoughts about future classes • New textbook, different organization (better I think), paperback (less expensive), website, etc. • More reading of articles, perhaps with ‘thought papers’ and discussion • Less broad coverage of everything in psycholinguistics, more focus on specific topics/issues • Perhaps a 1 day lecture, 2nd day disucussions • More active exercises (these are hard to come up with, suggestions welcome)
