Lecture | The Good Listener: Behavioral Neuroscience Considers the Perception of Speech

Monday, November 16, 2015, 8:00 pm

Free

Our talkative species occupies much of our time each day in conversation. Historical views of this loquaciousness often expressed singular interest in personal motive, asking: What could individuals hope to achieve with so much talk? How do aims shape expressions? It is hardly surprising that such abstract concerns were difficult to satisfy. In our technical era, scrutiny has turned to mechanism, and the psychological focus has been placed on cognitive resources: What must interlocutors know and be able to do in order to converse?

Lecturer Robert Remez is Professor of Psychology. A native New Yorker, he was a Predoctoral Research Trainee at Haskins Laboratories in New Haven, and received the doctorate in 1978 from the University of Connecticut.

This lecture is in three parts: Monday November 9, Monday November 16, and Monday November 23.
