Subject: [SLAVICLING:345] collaborators needed 
To: slavicling at lists.cc.utexas.edu 

I am passing this along for a Russian colleague. Please do not reply to me, but to her, 
Olga Aleksandrovna Ryzhkina, emp-roa at mail.ru 

The Foreign Language Department at Novosibirsk State University trains specialists in 
Linguistics and Intercultural Communication and is interested in collaboration with an 
American/British university/college in this field. 

At present we are searching for partners doing research in psycholinguistics and 
ethnopsycholinguistics. The goal of the joint project is viewed as compiling 
associative norms dictionaries of various types, e.g. an English-Russian dictionary of 
associative norms. 

Bilinguial/bi-cultural dictionaries of this type are of great value in ICC since they 
present culture-specific world views and may serve as guides for representatives of 
different cultures. 

The project we have in mind will require a team of researchers in both Russia and 
abroad and may take a few years, but is worth the effort. 

The project we propose is part of the bigger NSU innovations project for which the 
university has received a grant (for 07-08). Currently, we are working in collaboration 
with the Moscow Institute of Linguistics (Russian Academy of Sciences), who 
outstanding scholars such as Y. F. Tarasav and N.V. Ufimtseva and others, who are 
providing expertise and support for the project. 

Could you pass this information onto those interested in this field? We would 
appreciate your cooperation very much. 

Thank you for your time. 

Olga Ryzhkina 
Associate Professor
FLD, NSU
