About:

The Laboratory for Language, Cognition and Neuroscience was established as part of the Chair of Foreign Languages at the Faculty of Maritime Studies, University of Rijeka. The work of the Laboratory is conceived primarily within the framework of interdisciplinary sciences (cognitive science), including all related scientific disciplines. The primary activity is focused on psycholinguistic and neurolinguistic research, i.e., cognitive processing of different aspects of language. In addition, the development of psycholinguistic and computational-linguistic tools and resources necessary for conducting experimental research is also planned.

The laboratory's research activities include:

  • Development of computational-linguistic tools and resources for the Croatian language;
  • Development of psycholinguistic databases for the Croatian language;
  • Research on the processing of English loanwords in Croatian;
  • Research on the processing of Croatian negations;
  • Research of conceptual metaphors;
  • Research on semantic processing in Croatian;
  • Research on bilingual language processing

The Laboratory also works on:

  • Application and implementation of research and professional projects;
  • Cooperation with other research and business institutions;
  • Popularization of science.
