DESCRIPTION:Listeners and readers do not always arrive at an interpretation
of language input that is consistent with the information that is actuall
y in the input. These misinterpretations are often systematic and predicta
ble. In this talk\, Dr. Kiel Christianson will describe Good-Enough Langua
ge Processing\, a framework that attempts to account for misinterpretation
s by positing that the human language comprehension system applies “heuris
tics” to language input in an attempt to quickly and easily extract meanin
g. At times\, these heuristics conflict with the syntactic content of the
input. When the language processor opts to prioritize the heuristics over
the syntax\, misinterpretations arise. He will describe several studies th
at explore how these misinterpretations arise\, and how the language compr
ehension system (sometimes) works to repair them.\nLunch will be provided.

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:
Listeners and readers do not always arriv
e at an interpretation of language input that is consistent with the infor
mation that is actually in the input. These misinterpretations are often s
ystematic and predictable. In this talk\, Dr. Kiel Christianson will descr
ibe Good-Enough Language Processing\, a framework that attempts to account
for misinterpretations by positing that the human language comprehension
system applies “heuristics” to language input in an attempt to quickly and
easily extract meaning. At times\, these heuristics conflict with the syn
tactic content of the input. When the language processor opts to prioritiz
e the heuristics over the syntax\, misinterpretations arise. He will descr
ibe several studies that explore how these misinterpretations arise\, and
how the language comprehension system (sometimes) works to repair them.
