10th International Symposium of Psycholinguistics 2011

  • 13-16 Apr 2011
  • Palacio de Miramar, San Sebastian, Spain

Description

Language is the most unique human ability and involves complex cognitive processes. Reading and writing are the most impressive cultural developments of our civilization and are at the same time a major developmental milestone in each person s life.

They fundamentally change the way a person interacts with their environment. However, despite the impressive technological and scientific advances of recent decades we have not yet unravelled the complexities of the cognitive processes involved in language and in reading and we still do not know the causes of some language disorders and reading disabilities and how to remediate them.

The BCBL carries out research using the most advanced techniques in these fascinating areas, with a special focus on bilingualism."

Manuel Carreiras, BCBL Director.
