Psicolinguística e Modelos Baseados no Uso / Psycholinguistics and Usage-based Models

Neemias Souza Filho, Mahayana Godoy

Abstract

Resumo: Teorias linguísticas e teorias de processamento linguístico têm objetos de estudo distintos, e, portanto, objetivos e metodologias de trabalho diferentes. Neste artigo, tentamos demonstrar que, apesar dessas diferenças, há espaço na Psicolinguística para modelos de processamento da linguagem assentados sobre noções caras a modelos linguísticos baseados no uso, como eficiência e objetivos comunicativos. Para tanto, apresentamos dois modelos de processamento linguístico bastante diferentes em seus pressupostos, e analisamos como estes revelam pontos de convergência e divergência com diferentes teorias linguísticas. Dessa forma, esperamos contribuir para o aumento do número de colaborações entre linguistas e psicolinguistas que desenvolvem trabalhos com modelos baseados no uso.

Palavras-chave: psicolinguística; processamento da linguagem; modelos baseados em restrições; modelos baseados no uso.

Abstract: Linguistic theories and language processing theories have distinct study objects and, therefore, also distinct goals and research methods. In this article, we attempt to demonstrate that, despite such differences, there is room in Psycholinguistics for language processing models that are guided by notions such as communicative efficiency and speaker conversational goals, which are also held dear by usage-based linguistic models. To this end, we present two language processing models with widely varying assumptions and analyze how these reveal points of convergence and divergence in relation to different linguistic theories. In doing so, we hope to facilitate collaborations between linguists and psycholinguists that develop research within usage-based frameworks.

Keywords: psycholinguistics; language processing; constraint-based models; usagebased models.
