Psycholinguistic experiments

Psycholinguistic experiments investigate how people understand, produce, and acquire language. Researchers often observe reactions to words, sentences, or conversations to understand the mental processes involved. Methods include tracking eye movements, measuring reaction times, or analyzing brain activity to see how quickly and accurately language is processed. These experiments help reveal how our brains interpret meaning, recognize sounds, and form sentences, shedding light on the complex relationship between language and cognition in a clear, scientific way.
