• Research Interests:
Psycholinguistics, cognitive psychology, linguistics, neurolinguistics, computer science, sociolinguistics and education.
My research interests are primarily within the area of psychlinguistices including speech perception in normal and deafened individuals, sign language perception, and figurative language understanding. I have also done work in literacy and education, and collaborative work with language-learning impaired individuals and aphasics. I am beginning research in language change as affected by communication on the internet. I welcome research collaborations in any area of language and communication.
