ABSTRACT SBR 96-16376 PI: MacDonald This proposal requests funds for a Special Session of the 10th Annual CUNY Conference on Human Sentence Processing on the topic of The Link between Child Language Acquisition and Adult Language Comprehension. The CUNY Conference is the primary research meeting of psychologists, linguists, and computer scientists who study how humans comprehend language. The special session is necessary because researchers who study human adult language comprehension typically have not taken advantage of work indicating how children learn language. There is now good evidence that the way in which language is learned in childhood affects the way in which it is represented and comprehended in adults, and so the time is ripe for presentations at the CUNY meeting. In addition to offering important insights into the nature of human capacities for learning and language, a better understanding of language comprehension in humans may have important practical applications to computer language comprehension systems, as well as possible clinical applications with children or adults with language disabilities.

本提案为第十届纽约市立大学人类句子处理年会的特别会议申请资金，主题为儿童语言习得与成人语言理解之间的联系。纽约市立大学会议是研究人类如何理解语言的心理学家、语言学家和计算机科学家的主要研究会议。这次特别会议是必要的，因为研究人类成人语言理解的研究人员通常没有利用研究儿童如何学习语言的工作。现在有充分的证据表明，儿童时期学习语言的方式会影响成人对语言的表现和理解方式，因此，在纽约市立大学会议上发表演讲的时机已经成熟。除了对人类学习和语言能力的本质提供重要的见解外，更好地理解人类的语言理解可能对计算机语言理解系统有重要的实际应用，以及对有语言障碍的儿童或成人可能的临床应用。
