The Application of Psycholinguistic Principles in University English Teaching

With the new curriculum reform put into effect, new requirements and plans for college English teaching have been put forward. More and more attention has been paid to Chinese college English teaching from all aspects, among which, psycholinguistics is a new frontier subject. The application of psycholinguistic principles in education is more extensive. The research on the osmotic application of psycholinguistic principles in Chinese college English teaching is becoming the focus of education. This paper briefly introduces the characteristics and basic situation of English teaching in Chinese colleges, and the application of psycholinguistic principles in Chinese college English teaching is expounded. The purpose of this study is to understand the principles of psycholinguistics in English teaching in Chinese universities. It is hoped to play a positive role in promoting college English teaching innovation in China.

Psycholinguistic Analysis of the Influence of Affective Factors on College English Learning

Evaluating Communicative Teaching Method With Consideration of Psycholinguistics

Communicative language teaching has been in vogue in the past ten years. Being a language teaching method, it is closely related to linguistics, sociology, educeational theories and so on, psycholinguistics, a branch of linguistics focusing on the mental processes involved in human being's language acquisition and production, play a most important role in the study of language teaching, including communicative language teaching (CLT) of course. In this paper the writer will evaluate the CLT with the consideration of psycholinguistics to what extent CLT is helpful for second language teaching and learning.……

论心理语言学对英语教师教学实践的影响(英文)

Psycholinguistics is a newly developed discipline at present.It is helpful for experts to study how knowledge of language is represented in the mind/brain of a fluent speaker/hearer,how this information is utilized in the comprehension and production of expressions,and how speakers/hearers acquire these abilities.Since psycholinguistics is playing a vital role in research on language,it also has a great influence on foreign language teaching.English teachers could use theory of psycholinguistics to guide their teaching.This thesis aims to discuss functions of psycholinguistics on English teaching through four types of English curriculums(listening,speaking,reading and writing).

Differential Puankre’s Model of Sentence Lengths Clock Rhythms in Religious Texts

The mechanism of language’s impact on people’s mind is a black box problem in psycholinguistics.In the 21st century it crossed the field of psychology and became an urgent problem in artificial intelligence and neuroscience.Religious language has a highly effective role amongst all human linguistic materials on psychological behavior.What is the mechanism of religious language impacts on the brain?This study examined the relationship between religious linguistic rhythms and brain wave rhythms.We chose 36 Koran’s sur as language material and counted the length of every sentence for definition its’rhythm.And using the same method we compared with other religious and political linguistic material.The data shows the common rhythmic structure among all those language materials.Therefore,we consider that clock rhythms display of bilateral regulation,psychotherapeutic impact of the canonic texts is based on harmonization inter-hemisphere attitudes and other rhythms.

Formulaic Language in Second Language Acquisition:A Review

This paper argues for the need of the reappraisal of the formulaic aspect of language in second language acquisition by drawing insights from recent development in applied linguistics, psycholinguistics and corpus linguistics. This library study begins by reviewing the dual-nature view of language in relation to formulaic aspect of language. Then, a brief survey of evidence from corpus linguistics is provided to demonstrate the formulaicity of language. What follows is the discussion of rehearsal and implicit learning vis-a-vis memory from the perspective of psycholinguistics. After that, the role of formulaic language in second language acquisition is examined by taking stock of empirical findings that have accumulated in this area. Finally, by way of conclusion, how the formulaicity of language can shed light on second/foreign language teaching theory is illustrated.

Text Difficulty Study:Do Machines Behave the Same as Humans Regarding Text Difficulty?

With the emergence of pre-trained models,current neural networks are able to give task performance that is comparable to humans.However,we know little about the fundamental working mechanism of pre-trained models in which we do not know how they approach such performance and how the task is solved by the model.For example,given a task,human learns from easy to hard,whereas the model learns randomly.Undeniably,difficulty-insensitive learning leads to great success in natural language processing(NLP),but little attention has been paid to the effect of text difficulty in NLP.We propose a human learning matching index(HLM Index)to investigate the effect of text difficulty.Experiment results show:1)LSTM gives more human-like learning behavior than BERT.Additionally,UID-SuperLinear gives the best evaluation of text difficulty among four text difficulty criteria.Among nine tasks,some tasks’performance is related to text difficulty,whereas others are not.2)Model trained on easy data performs best in both easy and medium test data,whereas trained on hard data only performs well on hard test data.3)Train the model from easy to hard,leading to quicker convergence.
