CALL FOR PAPERS
Workshop "Linguistic Knowledge in Language Acquisition"
at the 25th Annual Meeting of the German Linguistics Society
(Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Sprachwissenschaft)
in Munich (February 26-28, 2003)
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
The way in which linguistic knowledge is conceptualised is of critical
importance for any acquisition theory. Both nativist and
constructivist theories have to provide a characterization of the kind
of linguistic knowledge which is activiated or acquired in the
acquisition process. Furthermore, the cognitive processes which
contribute to and interact in language development need to be
assessed. Such interactions could take place with respect to language
internal processes, or general cognitive categorization and pattern
abstraction processes, or even auditive and visual abilities.
A central aspect of language acquisition is the analysis of input
structures. This workshop focuses on the relationship between language
internal and language external knowledge. The contributions should
provide empirical approaches to characterize the representational and
procedural knowledge which is active in a given stage of
development. In particular, we would like to focus on questions such
as:
(A) Which are the "general" cognitive abilities relevant for the
acquisition of linguistic knowledge, and how do they contribute to the
acquisition of linguistic knowledge?
(B) Are there necessary interactions between different structural
domains?
(C) Do linguistic representations stay the same over time or do they
change? If they change, how can we demonstrate that recoding processes
take place?
(D) Which learning contexts and processes lead to the establisment of
explicit, meta-linguistic knowledge?
We welcome abstracts addressing both unimpaired and impaired language
development. If the number of abstracts submitted exceeds the number
of available presentation slots, we will give preference to
constributions which provide empirical tests for their claims or
propose new methodologies (corpus, experimental, computational) to
address these issues.
SUBMISSION
We invite abstracts (in German or English) for a 30 minute
presentation. Abstracts should not exceed one page (max.of 400 words)
and should be sent to the workshop organizers electronically or by
regular mail.
