Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Processing and Learning 2026
Short Title: X-PPL 2026

Date: 23-Sep-2026 - 25-Sep-2026
Location: Bayonne, France
Meeting URL: https://iker.cnrs.fr/xppl26

Linguistic Field(s): Cognitive Science; Language Acquisition;
Neurolinguistics; Psycholinguistics; Typology

Submission Deadline: 30-Apr-2026

The Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Processing and Learning Workshop
(X-PPL) brings together the growing community of researchers working
to expand the diversity of languages in the scope of psycholinguistic
and neuroscience research. This research is driven by the recognition
that structural/typological and socio-cultural diversity provides
important and unique opportunities to see language processing and
language learning mechanisms at work. The bulk of processing and
acquisition research represents only a small fraction of linguistic
diversity, and this current state risks biasing both our theories and
our research questions. The X-PPL workshop aims to fill this gap and
provide a platform for cross-linguistic research on language
processing and learning.
After several editions held at the University of Zurich (Switzerland),
the conference will become itinerant this year and will be hosted by
the AHAL Aquitaine Multilingual Lab (IKER-CNRS), at the University of
Pau campus in Bayonne (Basque Country, France), from September 23 to
25, 2026.
The keynote speakers of this edition are:
 - Nina Kazanina (University of Geneva)
 - Evan Kidd (Australian National University)
 - Julia Krebs (University of Salzburg)
We invite contributions on any topic on language processing and
acquisition which take into account typological diversity and/or
lesser-studied languages. We also invite abstracts on (a)
methodological, cultural or other issues that research on language
processing and learning outside of the lab might encounter or (b)
plans for cross-linguistic work.
Abstracts should be submitted as single-page PDFs by April 30 2026 at
this link: https://x-ppl-26.sciencesconf.org/user/createaccount.
Enquiries can be sent to x-ppl-26 at sciencesconf.org
