ABSTRACT
Language processing has concerned psychologists and cognitive researchers for a long time, not only because it reflects one of the most complex mental activities and has the potential to reveal the nature and uniqueness of human intelligence, but also because the ability to use language well is critical for academic and job success. This topic is also fundamental for scholars and specialists in other fields, such as educators concerned with language acquisition and teaching, computer scientists trying to use natural human language as a medium for both computer processing and human-machine interface, as well as neuroscientists and language therapists tackling different kinds of language disorders and their neurological causes.
