About the Author

Shirley-Ann Rueschemeyer is an Associate Professor in Psychology at the University of York, UK. She received her first degree from the University of Regensburg in Germany. She completed her PhD at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig, Germany, and spent several years as a research fellow at the Donders Centre for Cognition in Nijmegen, NL. Her research has focused on understanding the role of the social world in
language comprehension, the neural correlates of language comprehension, and bilingual language comprehension. M. Gareth Gaskell is a Professor of Psychology at the University of York, UK. He received his first
degree from Cambridge University, UK and was awarded a PhD from Birkbeck College, University of London, UK. Professor Gaskell has strong interests in both psycholinguistics and memory, with a particular focus on the interface between the two. He has developed a model of spoken-word recognition, and has studied written and spoken language perception and production across a wide range of languages. More recently he has explored the involvement of sleep in the process of learning and consolidating
linguistic knowledge in adults and children.

Reviews

Review from previous edition ..an authoritative and exhaustive account of the state of the art in psycholinguistics...an indispensible resource for all those interested in language processes. -
*The Psychologist*

...a comprehensive book that adeptly covers research in psycholinguistics from an array of disciplines and study techniques...for those with the requisite background and interest, this will be an extensive and worthwhile reference.
