Psycholinguistics is the study of how humans produce and understand language. This textbook provides a clear introduction to the subject for students with a basic knowledge of linguistics. It introduces central aspects of the production and comprehension of language and breaks them down into stages for ease of understanding. Students will also investigate how different production and comprehension processes interact. Looks at how language is processed and represented and how to apply this to the analysis of data. Considers everyday linguistic knowledge (such as the information we store for words, what rule systems we have for generating word and sentence structures) and how it relates to the structures and rules proposed by theoretical linguistics. Examples and exercises reinforce key points. Students become familiar with key terms and concepts with sidebar boxes that explain them as they are introduced, a comprehensive glossary and online flashcard facility

Knowledge and information are vital assets for enterprises, yet managing and reusing this intangible treasure poses significant challenges. Information overload complicates the ability to focus on essential data, while much corporate knowledge remains locked in employees’ minds, hindering reuse. This work addresses the need to boost productivity in knowledge work. It presents three key approaches derived from the EU-funded ACTIVE project, alongside findings from other research: the synergy of Web 2.0 and semantic technology, context-based information delivery, and technology to support informal user processes. The content is structured into five parts. Part I introduces the opportunities and challenges organizations face in leveraging Web 2.0 capabilities. Part II explores the technologies and methodologies developed in ACTIVE. Part III evaluates these technologies through three case studies. Part IV discusses principal market trends in knowledge management solutions and includes complementary work to ACTIVE. Finally, Part V offers conclusions and suggests areas for further research. This work primarily targets researchers in academia and industry seeking an overview of semantic and Web 2.0 technologies for knowledge management and productivity, while practitioners will find valuable insights in the case studies showcasing innovative applications.
