The Routledge International Handbook of Psycholinguistic and Cognitive Processes, 2nd Edition (EPUB)

By John Doe, Jane Smith, and Susan Brown

Looking for a comprehensive overview of cognition and language processing relevant to communication disorders? Look no further than this handbook by Jackie Guendouzi, Filip Loncke, and Mandy J. Williams. Updated in its second edition, this book delves into a range of topics and issues that show how theoretical and applied clinical work are dynamically interconnected.

Starting with language evolution, the authors explore both developmental and acquired communication disorders, highlighting the complexity of psycholinguistics and its role in expanding our understanding of communication disorders. The first section breaks down major theoretical approaches from psycholinguistics and cognitive neuroscience that have influenced research in clinical populations. Section II showcases examples from researchers who have applied this knowledge to developmental communication disorders. In Section III, authors focus on acquired language disorders, and Section IV explores psycholinguistic approaches to gesture, sign language, and alternative and augmentative communication (AAC). With new chapters, further reading recommendations, and an epilogue from Jackie Guendouzi, this updated edition offers fresh perspectives and insights.

This valuable text is a single interdisciplinary resource for graduate and upper-level undergraduate students in cognitive neurosciences, psychology, communication sciences and disorders, as well as researchers new to the field of communication disorders or psycholinguistic theory.
