متن کاملComparative Study of Degree of Bilingualism in Lexical Retrieval and Language Learning Strategies
This study compares lexical retrieval amongst monolinguals and intermediate bilinguals and advanced bilinguals. It also investigates the possible effects of their language learning strategies on their respective lexical retrieval advantage. The study used a mixed methods design and the groups consisted of 20 Persian near-monolinguals, 20 Persian-English intermediate level bilinguals, and 20 Per...
متن کاملWhat Do Robot Gestures Tell Us? Emotions and Messages in Simple Robotic Movement
Gesturing is an important activity in social interaction, but how will different types of robot gesture be interpreted by people? Understanding how humans interpret robot gestures will aid design of effective social robots. We examine the generation and interpretation of gestures in a simple social robot capable of head and arm movement using two studies. In the first study, four participants c...
