Short description:	The main aim of this course is to introduce students to the basic concepts, theories, paradigms, and debates in the field of the Psychology of Language.

This introductory course is an addition to the Modern Psycholinguistics course for those who lack basic knowledge of the Psychology of Language.
Learning outcomes:	By the end of the course students should be able to: formulate and justify their opinions on several enduring debates in psycholinguistics (K_W01, K_W02) conduct an in-depth literature overview (K_W01, K_W02, K_U08) interpret empirical findings (K_U03, K_U04)

Full description:	The course draws on experimental psychology, linguistics and neuroscience to help students appreciate the cognitive mechanisms underlying language. How is word meaning represented in the mind? Why is acquiring language in adulthood harder than in childhood? Why do we make speech errors? What is the pattern of language breakdown in dementia or after stroke? What are the effects of having two languages in one mind? What does language learning have to do with “statistical learning” and does it always have to be conscious? These are example issues we are going to discuss. During the course students see how the methods used to address these questions have developed over time and what state of the art in the field is. They also learn about the opportunities offered by recent advances in neuroimaging.
