  1. 1. Babble, grunts, and words : a study of phonetic shape and functional use in the beginnings of language

    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Phonetics; Fonetik; Phonetics; fonetik;

    Sammanfattning : The present study follows in the tradition of those seeking to understand linguistic behavior from a cognitive and socio-biological perspective (Bates, Benigni, Bretherton, Camaioni and Volterra 1979, Lindblom 1992, Hauser 1996) by tracing the development of a non-linguistic vocal behavior in relation to communicative and early lexical advances. More specifically the study focuses on the occurrence of what are termed ìcommunicative gruntsî and their functional relationship to adult based word use in one Swedish boy from 11 to 19 months of age.

  3. 3. Processing Asymmetries of Emotionally Valenced Stimuli

    Författare :Mats Dahl; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; recollective experience; remember-know; memory; encoding; processing asymmetries; emotional words; emotional faces; affective pictures; emotion; affective information; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : The central phenomenon investigated concerns the valence-based process asymmetry found in several earlier studies (e.g. Pratto & John, 1991; Taylor, 1991), where negative stimuli seem to initiate more thorough processing than positive stimuli. This finding was consistent in the three empirical studies forming this dissertation. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The development of the Situated Phoneme (SiP) test : A Swedish test of phonemic discrimination in noise for adultpeople with hearing loss

    Författare :Erik Witte; Elina Mäki-Torkko; Susanne Köbler; Jonas Ekeroot; Karolina Smeds; Thomas Brand; Örebro universitet; []

  5. 5. Unsupervised Learning of Morphology and the Languages of the World

    Författare :Harald Hammarström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computational Linguistics; Language typology; Language typology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents work in two areas; Language Technology and Linguistic Typology.
