Do they influence each other? This book casts a fresh light on these questions by putting individual speakers’ cognitive contexts, i.e. their usage-preferences and entrenched patterns of linguistic knowledge, into the focus of investigation. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt presents findings from original experimental research on spatial language use which indicate that these individual-specific factors indeed play a central role in determining whether or not differences in the current and\/or habitual linguistic behaviour of speakers of German and English are systematically correlated with differences in non-linguistic behaviour (visual attention allocation to and memory for spatial referent scenes).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThese findings form the basis of a new, speaker-focused usage-based model of linguistic relativity, which defines language-perception\/cognition effects as a phenomenon which primarily occurs within individual speakers rather than between speakers or speech communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Franziska Günther","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48262146654459,"sku":"9783110459784","price":196.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_0c3a0971-6289-4326-8925-ecdab18fb5f4.jpg?v=1778452387","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/constructions-in-cognitive-contexts-9783110459784","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
