By understanding the processes that underlie language ability, we can help develop more effective ways to teach people to read and make the books they read easier to understand. Language also offers a window onto human cognition more generally - research into signed languages has shed light onto how the brain processes and represents information. ""Psycholinguistics 101"" serves as a comprehensive introduction to the basic issues in psycholinguistic research, including its history and the methodologies typically employed in research. The book covers four topics that currently dominate the field. These include information flow, language representation, language in the real world, and sign language.
