Research description
My research focuses on the psychological mechanisms involved in aspects of language acquisition and use. I am particularly interested in basic perceptual mechanisms as the basis of diverse computations in both in artificial and natural grammar learning, and the role of perceptual cues for word learning. I normally employ behavioral experiments with humans, and computational modeling when I am bored. Now I will add research with non-human primates to investigate the same mechanisms in a non-human species. Ideally, this research will reveal some computational tools used by the language faculty, and indicate which of these are specific to humans and language.
