Registration will open soon for the 32nd Annual CUNY Conference on Human Sentence Processing to be held at the Hilton Embassy Suites Hotel in 麻豆影院, Colorado聽March 29-31, 2019聽and聽hosted by the University of Colorado聽麻豆影院/Institute of Cognitive Science.

The registration portal will be聽available soon on the conference聽website:聽www.colorado.edu/event/cuny2019.

The conference focuses on the comprehension, production, and acquisition of language at the sentence level, traditionally drawing researchers from psychology, linguistics, cognitive science, neuroscience, computer science, education, and philosophy.

The special session of the 2019 conference is 鈥淰ariation in the Mechanisms of Human Language Processing鈥. The special session will address聽fundamental聽questions聽about how human language and language processing are shaped by聽variations in the cognitive capacities of humans. The session will encompass issues related to the impact of聽developmental language impairments,聽differences in perceptual experiences (blindness and deafness), cognitive changes聽associated with aging, and聽individual differences in聽cognitive abilities within the typically developing population. The special session aims to produce theoretical and methodological cross-pollination聽between research focused on variation in language processing and a more standard paradigm within psycholinguistic research that has聽focused on the average language processing abilities of neurocognitively typical,聽young adults.

Six prominent invited speakers will represent research on different forms of variation in the mechanisms of language processing: 聽

  • Marina Bedny, Johns Hopkins University
  • Karen Emmorey, San Diego State University
  • Barbara Landau, Johns Hopkins University
  • Laurence Leonard, Purdue University
  • Bob McMurray, University of Iowa
  • Elizabeth Stine-Morrow, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign

CUNY 2019 is organized by Al Kim, Eliana Colunga, Laura Michaelis, and Bhuvana Narasimhan.
