Language comprehension
This class is an introduction to the cognitive processes and representations that underlie language comprehension. We will look at how comprehenders access and represent the entities, events, or categories that language refers to, what grammar contributes and how it's processed, how people take context into account, how they make predictions over the course of an utterance about what will come next, whether and how they maintain multiple possible interpretations of an utterance, and how they deal with figurative language.
