Students will be acquainted with selected issues that psycholinguistics investigates. The course builds on theories of second language acquisition (SLA), cognitive and social psychology, theory of communication, (socio)linguistics, sociology and other disciplines. Special attention is paid to the integration of findings in the light of conceptual and methodological issues that are related to the acquiring/learning of a foreign language and its use in interpersonal interaction.
