EDMSP6014 Applied Psycholinguistics
This unit provides students with a foundation in applied psycholinguistics and methodological training in experimental research. The subject offers an overview of the theoretical and experimental knowledge related to language psychology, and how this relates to language education and speech pathology. Psycholinguistics is inherently multidisciplinary and students will learn about first and second language acquisition, language processing, speech production/perception, models of the mental lexicon and grammar. This unit draws on work from psychology, linguistics, education, speech pathology, audiology and cognitive science more generally. Essential to this unit are links to practice in fields such as education and speech pathology.
