Description:

Contact: Barbara Hemforth, LLF
Contact email: barbara.hemforth at parisdescartes.fr
University: University Paris 7
Job rank: PhD student
Duration: 36 months, starting dec. 2011
Salary: in accordance with the French state regulated PhD salary scale
Keywords: Psycholinguistics, eyetracking, sentence/discourse processing
Application deadline: 2011/11/10
Application email: marandin at linguist.jussieu.fr
Application reference: EFL-ANA1-ANA2

Applicants are invited to work in a 10-year project 'Empirical foundations of 
linguistics'. The candidate will work in Strand 2 : Experimental Grammar in a 
cross linguistic perspective. This is a full-time position.

The successful applicant will have to document qualifications in 
linguistics/psycholinguistics at the Master's level. Applicants will be 
assessed by an expert committee. The main emphasis of the assessment 
will be on the applicant's potential for research, as evident from: Master's 
thesis or equivalent, other scholarly works and project description. 

Please join with your application: CV; two names of referent (with email 
address); web address with publications. 

The thesis will involve the investigation of crosslinguistic differences in 
anaphor resolution processes. The relevance of discourse structure, word 
order as well as prosody in particular with respect to information structure will 
be a central concern of the research. A central issue in those studies will be 
the close comparison of crosslinguistic differences with highly parallel 
materials across a variety of languages (e.g., German, French, English, 
Portuguese, Spanish). Most experiments will be using eyetracking techniques 
such as the visua.
