Achievement

Students Erika Hussey and Susan Teubner-Rhodes (both Psychology) made bold forays into language processing research, through a collaboration between their home lab (the Decision & Memory Lab) and Maryland's Center for Advanced Study of Language. This work focused on the role of anxiety in executive control processes in sentence understanding, and it led Erika and Susan to give a presentation at the leading international conference in psycholinguistics, a new venue for them. Additionally, this project led to new methodological collaboration and resource sharing between the Departments of Linguistics and Psychology.
