Double R Model (Referential and Relational Model) is a computational psycholinguistic model of natural language understanding founded on the linguistic principles of Cognitive Linguistics and implemented using the ACT-R cognitive architecture and modeling environment

In his classic article in the first number of this journal (Sapir 1938) and in many other writings, Edward Sapir urged that a true social science, including an understanding of the nature and working of culture, must necessarily be founded on an understanding of the individuals who participate in culture and society: “In the psychological sense, culture is not the thing that is given us.

This paper addresses the methodology of ontology construction. It identifies five styles of approach to ontologizing (deriving from philosophy, cognitive science, linguistics, AI/computational linguistics, and domain reasoning) and argues that they do not provide the same results. It then provides a more detailed example of one of the approaches.

This paper describes a novel approach to the construction of an interlinguabased MT system. This approach emerges from the developing field of Cognitive Linguistics. The objective of this paper is to address one of the main problems in MT systems (besides the source text ambiguity problem): the apparent complexity and irregularity of translation data. The author suggests that the key to a coher...

this study investigated the effect of applying the dynamic system theory (dst) and cognitive linguistics (cl) insights into grammar instruction on efl learners’ learning of english prepositions and learner autonomy. sixty iranian efl learners at the lower-intermediate level of language proficiency were randomly assigned to 1 experimental and 1 control group. the 2 groups filled out an autonomy ...
