  • Variation in first-generation L1 deictic systems: Language attrition and bilingualism effects

    Open AccessMila Vulchanova, Jacqueline Collier et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2023

    Aims and Objectives: This study explored the extent to which bilingual language exposure and practice might alter the way in which bilingual first-generation adult speakers use deictic demonstratives in their first language (Spanish) after immersion in a new language environment (Norwegian). Fully developed L1 systems are expected to be stable and less susceptible to change or restructuring than child systems. In addition, core domains of a langu…

  • Word learning in ASD: The Sensorimotor, the Perceptual and the Symbolic

    Open AccessMila Vulchanova, Valentin Vulchanov et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Cognitive…2023References: 111

    Word learning requires successful pairing of form and meaning. A common hypothesis about the process of word learning is that initially, infants work on identifying the phonological segments corresponding to words (speech analysis), and subsequently map those segments onto meaning. A range of theories have been proposed to account for the underlying mechanisms and factors in this remarkable achievement. While some are mainly concerned with the se…

  • Spatial communication systems across languages reflect universal action constraints

    Open AccessKenny R Coventry, Harmen B Gudde et al.ARTICLENature Human Behaviour2023Cited by: 1References: 57

    The extent to which languages share properties reflecting the non-linguistic constraints of the speakers who speak them is key to the debate regarding the relationship between language and cognition. A critical case is spatial communication, where it has been argued that semantic universals should exist, if anywhere. Here, using an experimental paradigm able to separate variation within a language from variation between languages, we tested the u…

  • Rethinking Figurative Language in Autism: What Evidence Can We Use for Interventions

    Open AccessMila Vulchanova, Valentin VulchanovARTICLEFrontiers in Communication2022

    Problems with the processing and understanding of figurative language have been systematically observed in individuals on the autism spectrum despite preserved structural language skills. In this qualitative review we discuss theoretical considerations of relevance for figurative language processing in neurotypical individuals and individuals with autism across the life-span. We address the factors which influence figurative language processing a…

  • Language and perception: "Introduction to the Special Issue "Speakers and Listeners in the Visual World

    Open AccessMila Vulchanova, Valentin Vulchanov et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Cognitive…2019Cited by: 2References: 67

    Language and perception are two central cognitive systems. Until relatively recently, however, the interaction between them has been examined only partially and not from an over-arching theoretical perspective. Yet it has become clear that linguistic and perceptual interactions are essential to understanding both typical and atypical human behaviour. In this editorial, we examine the link between language and perception across three domains. Firs…
