Abstract:

In recent years, linguists have increasingly turned to the cognitive sciences
to broaden their investigation into the roots and development of language.
With the advent of cognitive-linguistic, usage-based and complex-adaptive
models of language, linguists today are utilizing approaches and insights from
cognitive psychology, neuropsychology, social psychology and other related
fields.

A key result of this interdisciplinary approach is the concept of
entrenchment—the ongoing reorganization and adaptation of communicative
knowledge. Entrenchment posits that our linguistic knowledge is continuously
refreshed and reorganized under the influence of social interactions. It is
part of a larger, ongoing process of lifelong cognitive reorganization whose
course and quality is conditioned by exposure to and use of language, and by
the application of cognitive abilities and processes to language.

This volume enlists more than two dozen experts in the fields of linguistics,
psycholinguistics, neurology, and cognitive psychology in providing a
realistic picture of the psychological and linguistic foundations of language.
Contributors examine the psychological foundations of linguistic entrenchment
processes, and the role of entrenchment in first-language acquisition, second
language learning, and language attrition. Critical views of entrenchment and
some of its premises and implications are discussed from the perspective of
dynamic complexity theory and radical embodied cognitive science.
