[Corpora-List] associative experiments, comparative linguistics

[John F. Sowa]

For anyone who is interested in the interdisciplinary research in
cognitive science (which includes linguistics, psychology, philosophy,
and artificial intelligence), a good resource is the Master Index of
the archives of the _Cognitive Science Journal_ from 1980 to 2004:

    http://csjarchive.cogsci.rpi.edu/masterIndex.html

All these articles are available for free download.  Unfortunately, the
more recent articles are not free.

Another useful reference for free downloads of classics in psychology
(including related material about language), see

    http://psychclassics.yorku.ca/links.htm

These classics, which cover the period from from Aristotle to the
middle of the 20th century, provide some perspective on the subject.
It's useful to note that some of the latest and greatest "insights"
were not only "anticipated", but analyzed in detail a few centuries
or even a few millennia ago.

As the computer scientist Richard Hamming said, "The purpose of
computing is insight, not numbers."  Some of the old articles can
provide more insight than some of the latest numbers.
