Langston, Advanced Cognitive Psychology, Notes
8 -- Language
We'll investigate language with a set of articles that look at
various aspects of language. This will give you a flavor of language
research areas. The goal is to look at some of these techniques used
to study language to see if we can get some ideas for cognitive
research in general.
