Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics

The Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics is a research center based in the Netherlands that studies how humans understand, produce, and learn language. It explores the biological, psychological, and social factors involved in language processing through experiments and technological tools. The goal is to uncover the cognitive and neural mechanisms behind language use, helping us understand how language develops and how it varies across individuals and cultures. The institute collaborates with scientists worldwide to advance knowledge about the human capacity for language and communication.
