Question 2
The introduction to the chapter on language comprehension includes a section about the English-centered focus of psycholinguistics. Which of the following students provides the best summary of this section?
a. Diarmiud: Because English is the standard language used in international relations, researchers need to focus on this language.
b. Fiona: Researchers are most likely to study the English language. However, without knowing how people function in other languages, we cannot claim that any language characteristic is universal.
c. Judy: The initial research in psycholinguistics was primarily focused on English; in the 21st century, however, researchers are systematically investigating a wide variety of other languages.
