The Oxford Handbook of Language Production provides a
comprehensive, multidisciplinary review of the complex mechanisms
involved in language production. It describes what we know of the
computational, linguistic, cognitive, and brain basis of human
language production - from how we conceive the messages we aim to
convey, to how we retrieve the right (and sometimes wrong) words,
how we form grammatical sentences, and how we assemble and
articulate individual sounds. Contributions from leading
psycholinguists, cognitive linguists, and neuroscientists offer
readers a broad perspective on the latest research, highlighting
key investigations into core aspects of human language processing.
The Handbook is organized into three sections: speaking, written
and sign languages, and how language production interfaces with the
wider cognitive system, including control processes, memory,
non-linguistic gestures, and the perceptual system. These chapters
discuss a wide array of levels of representation, from sentences to
individual words, speech sounds and articulatory gestures,
extending to discourse and the broader social context of speaking.
Detailed supporting chapters provide an overview of key issues in
linguistic structure at each level of representation. Authoritative
yet concisely written, the volume will be of interest to scholars
and students working in cognitive psychology, psycholinguistics,
cognitive neuroscience, computer science, audiology, and education,
and related fields.
