Accepting PhD Students
PhD projects
I welcome applications from PhD students in any of my areas of interest, especially the following:
The role of learning in language behaviour and language description (e.g., comprehension and production, foreign language learning, reading and others).
Understanding/describing language as a complex dynamic system, its relationships with other cognitive systems (e.g., perception, memory, problem solving).
The dyads of language-communication and cognition-conceptualisation as pillars of human (social) adaptation.
I currently co-supervise the following students:
Mr Maciej Borowski - Elucidating native speaker knowledge of case and aspect in Polish
Ms Shiyu He - Learning to optimize reading: Transferring eye movements across languages
Ms Paraskevi Moulara - Can Technology-enhanced language learning affect learners' language proficiency and motivation? Insights from an experimental approach
Mr Masanori Matsumura - Extension of Second Language Knowledge Beyond Available Usage Samples: Restructuring of the Sense Network of Polysemous Verbs in English
Ms Yuhan Luo - Cognitive processes of listen-to-summarize task: A mixed-method study
