The Crosslinguistic Perspectives on Processing and Learning Workshop (X-PPL) brings together the growing community of researchers working to expand the diversity of languages in the scope of psycholinguistic and neuroscience research. This research is driven by the recognition that structural/typological and socio-cultural diversity provides important and unique opportunities to see language processing and language learning mechanisms at work. The bulk of processing and acquisition research repr

A key function of language is to enable concept construction, but empirically disentangling the contribution of language from the contribution of other (e.g., sensory) experiences is challenging. Comp...
