Taylor & Francis The Nature of Intelligence
Book SynopsisIn the 1960s and early 1970s, converging scientific and social movements had generated increasing concern over the meaning of the term intelligence. Traditional definitions, rooted in the history of intelligence testing and school selection practices, had come under challenge as experimental psychology turned increasingly to the study of human cognitive processes and as understanding of the influence of culture on patterns of thinking grew.Originally published in 1976, the theme of the book is an examination of cognitive and adaptive processes involved in intelligent behavior and a look at how these processes might be related to tested intelligence. The book contains sections on intelligence from the psychometric viewpoint, computer simulations of intelligent behavior, studies of intelligence as social and biological adaptation, and intelligence analyzed in terms of basic cognitive processes. In a number of the chapters the constructs and methods of modern information-processing psychology are used in their analyses of intelligence. As the reader will discover, the divisions of the book do not necessarily represent competing viewpoints, but rather multiple windows on the phenomenon of human intelligence. Today it can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.

Taylor & Francis Perspectives on Agrammatism
Book SynopsisAgrammatic aphasia (agrammatism), resulting from brain damage to regions of the brain involved in language processing, affects grammatical aspects of language. Therefore, research examining language breakdown (and recovery) patterns in agrammatism is of great interest and importance to linguists, neurolinguists, neuropsychologists, neurologists, psycholinguists and speech and language pathologists from all over the world. Research in agrammatism, studied across languages and from different perspectives, provides information about the grammatical structures that are affected by brain damage, their nature, and how language (and the brain) recovers from brain damage.The chapters in this book focus on the symptoms that arise in agrammatic aphasia at the lexical, morphological and sentence level and address these impairments from neurolinguistic, neuropsychological and neurological perspectives. Special attention is given to methods for assessment and treatment of agrammatism and Trade Review"This volume is an excellent resource which provides an extensive coherent summary of the most essential issues and current developments in the field of aphasiology. ... Valuable for students, clinicians, and researchers." - Michaela Nerantzini, University of Athens, Greece, in International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders"This is an excellent, well conceived book about agrammatism with contributions from internationally recognised researchers. I will certainly be recommending this to scholars and researchers in the field and to students studying aphasia at an advanced level." - Susan Edwards, Professor Emerita, School of Psychology and Clinical Language Sciences, University of Reading, UK"The strength of Perspectives in Agrammatism is in its multidisciplinary approach, including a section on clinical perspectives.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Speech Perception and Spoken Word Recognition
Book SynopsisSpeech Perception and Spoken Word Recognition features contributions from the field’s leading scientists, and covers recent developments and current issues in the study of cognitive and neural mechanisms that take patterns of air vibrations and turn them ‘magically’ into meaning. The volume makes a unique theoretical contribution in linking behavioural and cognitive neuroscience research, and cutting across traditional strands of study, such as adult and developmental processing.The book: Focusses on the state of the art in the study of speech perception and spoken word recognition Discusses the interplay between behavioural and cognitive neuroscience evidence, and between adult and developmental research Evaluates key theories in the field and relates them to recent empirical advances, including the relationship between speech perception and speech production, meaning representation and real-time activation, and bilingual and monolingual spoken word recognition Examines emerging areas of study such as word learning and time-course of memory consolidation, and how the science of human speech perception can help computer speech recognition Overall this book presents a renewed focus on theoretical and developmental issues, as well as a multifaceted and broad review of the state of research, in speech perception and spoken word recognition. Particularly interested readers will be researchers of psycholinguistics and adjoining fields as well as advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students.Trade Review'I think it's an absolutely top-notch proposal and we should definitely say yes. I know Gareth well, and he's a world expert and big name in the area, so we're lucky to have him.' - Trevor Harley, Series Editor'The list of proposed contributors (the majority of whom have agreed to contribute) is outstanding. I expect it would be a well-used library book.’ - Jeffrey Bowers, Professor of Psychology, University of Bristol, UK‘I think that the chapters in the proposed volume are very likely to succeed in presenting a new synthesis of recent behavioural and cognitive neuroscience research on speech perception and spoken word recognition.

Cambridge University Press Dialogicality and Social Representations
Book SynopsisThis book develops a theory of social knowledge drawing on social representations and dialogicality. It argues that dialogicality, the capacity of the human mind to conceive, create and communicate about social realities in terms of the other, is the sine qua non of the human mind.Trade Review"There is much that I am willing to take from DSR and incorporate into my own research. I share Markova's concerns about our so-far insufficient understanding of the dynamics of social thinking and about the rather unhelpful theorizing grounded in the sharp distinction between the individual and the social. I also empathize with her aversion to monological discourses and join her in her call for conceptualization of human thinking and knowing in terms of communication and language." - Anna Sfard, Michigan State UniversityTable of ContentsPreface; 1. An epistemological problem for social psychology; 2. Thinking and antinomies; 3. Linguistic and dialogical antinomies; 4. Thinking through the mouth; 5. Social representations: old and new; 6. Dialogical triads and three-component processes; 7. Understanding themata and generating social representations; Conclusion: social representations and dialogicality.

Cambridge University Press Emotions and Multilingualism Studies in Emotion and Social Interaction
Book SynopsisHow do bilinguals experience emotions? Do they perceive and express emotions similarly or differently in their respective languages? Does the first language remain forever the language of the heart? What role do emotions play in second language learning and in language attrition? Why do some writers prefer to write in their second language? In this provocative book, Pavlenko challenges the monolingual bias of modern linguistics and psychology and uses the lens of bi- and multilingualism to offer a fresh perspective on the relationship between language and emotions. Bringing together insights from the fields of linguistics, neurolinguistics, psychology, anthropology, psychoanalysis and literary theory, Pavlenko offers a comprehensive introduction to this cross-disciplinary movement. This is a highly readable and thought-provoking book that draws on empirical data and first hand accounts and offers invaluable advice for novice researchers. It will appeal to scholars and researchers acrosTrade Review'Aneta Pavlenko's book is a welcome and enriching addition to the field of bilingualism and multilingualism, addressing the topic of the relationship between emotions and multilingualism. As a first attempt to bring together these two fields, this book must be applauded as an important addition to the study of multilingualism. … this book is well-written … an updated, interesting, and integrated account of the state of the art on the interface between affect and multilingualism … as is true of every good scholarly volume, her book raises more questions than it answers and should therefore be read by all scholars of multilingualism.'

Cambridge University Press Conversation Analysis Cambridge Textbooks in Linguistics
Book SynopsisWe live our lives in conversation, building families, societies and civilisations. In over seven thousand languages across the world, the basic infrastructure by which we communicate remains the same. This is the first ever book-length linguistic introduction to conversation analysis (CA), the field that has done more than any other to illuminate the mechanics of interaction. Starting by locating CA by reference to a number of cognate disciplines investigating language in use, it provides an overview of the origins and methodology of CA. By using conversational data from a range of languages, it examines the basic apparatus of sequence organisation: turn-taking, preference, identity construction and repair. As the basis for these investigations, the book uses the twin analytic resources of action and sequence to throw new light on the origins and nature of language use.Trade Review'This exciting new book is authoritatively and engagingly written: the coverage of issues in conversation analysis and the organisation of conversation is first class.' Gareth Walker, Sheffield UniversityTable of Contents1. Introduction: why study conversation?; 2. Towards an understanding of action: origins and perspectives; 3. Why that, now?: position and composition in interaction; 4. Interaction in time: the centrality of turntaking; 5. The structure of sequences I: preference organisation; 6. The structure of sequences II: knowledge and authority in the construction of identity; 7. Halting progressivity: the organisation of repair; 8. Conclusion: discovering order.

Cambridge University Press Conversation Analysis and Psychotherapy
Book SynopsisUsing the sophisticated theoretical and methodological apparatus of Conversation Analysis, this book sheds light on what happens in psychotherapeutic sessions and how therapists can use conversation to achieve success. Will appeal to researchers and graduate students studying conversation analysis across the disciplines of psychology, sociology and linguistics.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: 'This volume highlights the considerable insights that emerge as a result of using conversation analysis to better understand psychotherapeutic interaction. Through an examination of the practices and procedures within the 'talking cure', the contributors help initiate a dialogue between students of interaction and psychotherapy researchers. Their findings indicate that conversation analysis can highlight key aspects of the psychotherapeutic process which have hitherto remained somewhat opaque.' Mike Forrester, University of Kent, CanterburyReview of the hardback: '… an outstanding edited collection. In a modest volume it brings together cutting edge conversation analytic studies of psychotherapist–client interaction. … rigorous empirical work … breadth of psychoanalytic theory and practice … interesting insights into conversation analysis from an outsider's perspective. … The book provides fascinating insights into the ways various forms of therapy are accomplished using the structures that organize social interaction. This book is a must have for students and academics with interests in conversation analysis and/or psychotherapy. It will likely become the … most important point of reference for those interested in the moment-by-moment unfolding of psychotherapeutic interaction.'

Cambridge University Press Metaphor and Emotion
Book SynopsisMany researchers claim that emotions arise either from human biology (i.e., biological reductionism) or as products of culture (i.e., social constructionism). This book challenges this division between the body and culture by showing how human emotions are to a large extent 'constructed' from individuals' embodied experiences in different cultural settings.Trade Review'I deem Metaphor and Emotion to be a substantial work … I believe that any literary-linguistic scholar interested in cognition, emotion or metaphor will find this work hugely rewarding.' Language and Literature'Metaphor and Emotion contains much that is interesting, even intriguing … Though the book's emphasis is firmly on linguistic analysis, Metaphor and Emotion will also be rewarding and suggestive for philosophers, psychologists and anyone eager to look in more detail at the relative place of language, body and culture in the constitution of human emotions.' Philosophical Writings'… an informative, readable and at times entertaining overview of metaphor and culture.' The PsychologistTable of Contents1. Language and emotion concepts; 2. Metaphor of emotion; 3. Emotion metaphors: are they unique to the emotions?; 4. Events and emotions: the subcategorization of emotions; 5. The force of emotion; 6. Emotions and relationships; 7. Folk versus expert theories of emotion; 8. Universality in the conceptualization of emotion; 9. Cultural variation in the conceptualization of emotion; 10. Emotion language: a new synthesis.
