By the way, I hadn’t shared this here, but as of April I’m now at Gakushuin University. It’s within walking distance of Ikebukuro in Tokyo, so if you’re in the area, feel free to get in touch!

For the past few weeks, while accompanying my daughter in hospital, I haven’t been able to get anything done, but I still have so many things I want to write…

Publishing a single-authored book in Japanese is tough enough for me, but writing a monograph in English is on another level. I was hoping to have a clear path by April, but that’s not looking likely at all.

While my wife is away on a business trip to Shanghai, my daughter has come down with a cold, and I’m not feeling great either.

By the way, the cost of making a single paper Gold OA is about a year and a half of my personal research budget…

In research that pushes back against cognitive “universality” by emphasizing complexity and packing models with individual-difference factors, cultural variation in those factors is usually left unexamined…there’s no real sense of tension between universality and cultural specificity at all.

Neuroscience of language has a dilemma: how do we reconcile extensive patient and imaging evidence for **language-specific** processing with the fact that naturalistic language evokes extensive activity all over the brain? We propose a framework that accounts for both.

Applied linguistics has long been a field where diverse theoretical perspectives coexist, giving rise to serious and conflicting debates. But lately criticism tends to be dismissed as mere negativity rather than seen as a sign of intellectual commitment. That’s something I should consciously resist.

The paper I’m currently writing is not so much about explaining second language phenomena per se, but rather using those phenomena to address broader questions in cognitive science. This is something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time.

I’ve been asking people to take on some heavy tasks, but everyone has responded with such swift and kind acceptance. It really makes me feel how much I’m living surrounded by the kindness of others…

Saying “the human mind is more complex than physics” feels too superficial.

Why does it often happen that, when accounting for individual differences improves model fit, some claim it challenges the universality of linguistic knowledge (acquisition) and supports usage-based models?
