Exploration of language in the mind
Welcome to the website of the Language Processing and Usage Lab, hosted at the Department of Chinese at National Taiwan Normal University!
We aim to understand how language is used and how it is represented in the mind, using a variety of quantitative methods such as corpus explorations, behavioral experiments and neuroimaging techniques to support theoretical analyses. We are particularly interested in diversity as a whole: diversity of languages, diversity of individuals (younger and older populations, individuals with different socioeconomic backgrounds, etc.), and diversity of topics.
Languages studied so far: English, Paiwan, Tagalog, Taiwan Mandarin, Truku Seediq
