Abstract:

This handbook provides a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of a wide range
of developmental and clinical issues in pragmatics. Principally, the
contributions to this volume deal with pragmatic competence in a native
language, in a second or foreign language, and in a selection of language
disorders. The topics which are covered explore questions of production and
comprehension on the utterance and discourse level. Topics addressed concern
the acquisition and learning, teaching and testing, assessment and treatment
of various aspects of pragmatic ability, knowledge and use. These include, for
example, the acquisition and development of speech acts, implicatures, irony,
story-telling and interactional competence. Phenomena such as pragmatic
awareness and pragmatic transfer are also addressed. The disorders considered
include clinical conditions pertaining to children and to adults.
Specifically, these are, among others, autism spectrum disorders, Down
syndrome, and Alzheimer's disease.
