It is the first such study to integrate modern  syntactic theory, cross-linguistic psychological evidence, and modern  computational techniques in constructing a model of the human sentence  processing mechanism. \u003cbr\u003e  The monograph follows the rationalist tradition, arguing the central  role of modularity and universal grammar in a theory of human  linguistic performance. It refines the notion of `modularity of mind',  and presents a distributed model of syntactic processing which  consists of modules aligned with the various informational `types'  associated with modern linguistic theories. By considering  psycholinguistic evidence from a range of languages, a small number of  processing principles are motivated and are demonstrated to hold  universally. It is also argued that the behavior of modules, and the  strategies operative within them, can be derived from an overarching  `Principle of Incremental Comprehension'. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e The book is recommended to all linguists,  psycholinguists, computational linguists, and others interested in a  unified and interdisciplinary study of the human language faculty.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1996-01-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792338062\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-009-1600-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 248\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44343404494988,"sku":"9780792338062","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792338062.jpg?v=1777981108","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792338062","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
