Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course is planned to present an overview and in-depth discussion of a special field in psycholinguistics, namely dialogue. After two introductory sessions we read a contemporary, currently discussed book on the topic written by Simon Garrod and Martin Pickering: Understanding Dialogue: Language Use and Social Interaction, 2021. The aim is to develop and train the student's ability to get acquainted with and acquire in-depth knowledge of a contemporary psycholinguistic research field. Students will be assigned (obligatory) weekly reading tasks that involve chapters of the book and obligatory oral presentations. The seminar tasks will also include active participation and a written term paper on a topic related to the seminar.

Assessment and permitted materials

Student progress will be evaluated by three measures:
1. Term paper (~4000 words). The term paper will enable the student to explore a topic that was discussed in the seminar in greater depth. Students will be free to write term papers in either German or English. (50%)
2. active participation including weekly reading assignments (20%)
3. in class presentation of a paper/topic in one of the seminar sessions (30%)

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

No prior background in psycholinguistics is assumed. Solid knowledge of English is necessary.
