Download or read book Diagnosing Syntax written by Lisa Lai-Shen Cheng and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-07-25 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diagnosis is an essential part of scientific research. It refers to the process of identifying a phenomenon, property, or condition on the basis of certain signs and by the use of various diagnostic procedures. This book is the first ever to consider the use of diagnostics in syntactic research and focuses on the five core domains of natural language syntax - ellipsis, agreement, anaphora, phrasal movement, and head movement. Each empirical domain is considered in turn from the perspectives of syntax, syntax at the interfaces, neuropsycholinguistics, and language diversity. Drawing on the expertise of 20 leading scholars and their empirically rich data, the book presents current thoughts on, and practical answers to, the question: What are the diagnostic signs, techniques and procedures that can be used to analyse natural language syntax? It will interest linguists, including formalists, typologists, psycholinguists and neurolinguists.
Download or read book Syntax and Its Limits written by Raffaella Folli and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, leading linguists explore the empirical scope of syntactic theory, by concentrating on a set of phenomena for which both syntactic and nonsyntactic analyses appear plausible. The volume is organized into four thematic sections: architectures; syntax and information structure; syntax and the lexicon; and lexical items at the interfaces
Download or read book The Cambridge Handbook of Generative Syntax written by Marcel den Dikken and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-25 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Syntax – the study of sentence structure – has been at the centre of generative linguistics from its inception and has developed rapidly and in various directions. The Cambridge Handbook of Generative Syntax provides a historical context for what is happening in the field of generative syntax today, a survey of the various generative approaches to syntactic structure available in the literature and an overview of the state of the art in the principal modules of the theory and the interfaces with semantics, phonology, information structure and sentence processing, as well as linguistic variation and language acquisition. This indispensable resource for advanced students, professional linguists (generative and non-generative alike) and scholars in related fields of inquiry presents a comprehensive survey of the field of generative syntactic research in all its variety, written by leading experts and providing a proper sense of the range of syntactic theories calling themselves generative.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Ellipsis written by Jeroen van Craenenbroeck and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 1200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook is the first volume to provide a comprehensive, in-depth, and balanced discussion of ellipsis phenomena, whereby the meaning of an utterance is richer than would be expected based solely on its linguistic form. Natural language abounds in these apparently incomplete expressions, such as I laughed but Ed didn't, in which the final portion of the sentence, the verb 'laugh', remains unpronounced but is still understood. The range of phenomena involved raise general and fundamental questions about the workings of grammar, but also constitute a treasure trove of fine-grained points of inter- and intralinguistic variation. The volume is divided into four parts. In the first, authors examine the role that ellipsis plays and how it is analysed in different theoretical frameworks and linguistic subdisciplines, such as HPSG, construction grammar, inquisitive semantics, and computational linguistics. Chapters in the second part highlight the usefulness of ellipsis as a diagnostic tool for other linguistic phenomena including movement and islands and codeswitching, while part III focuses instead on the types of elliptical constructions found in natural language, such as sluicing, gapping, and null complement anaphora. Finally, the last part of the book contains case studies that investigate elliptical phenomena in a wide variety of languages, including Dutch, Japanese, Persian, and Finnish Sign Language.

Download or read book Diagnostic Measurement written by Andr? A. Rupp and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2010-04-09 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory and practice of diagnostic classification models (DCMs), which are useful for statistically driven diagnostic decision making. DCMs can be employed in a wide range of disciplines, including educational assessment and clinical psychology. For the first time in a single volume, the authors present the key conceptual underpinnings and methodological foundations for applying these models in practice. Specifically, they discuss a unified approach to DCMs, the mathematical structure of DCMs and their relationship to other latent variable models, and the implementation and estimation of DCMs using Mplus. The book's highly accessible language, real-world applications, numerous examples, and clearly annotated equations will encourage professionals and students to explore the utility and statistical properties of DCMs in their own projects. This book will appeal to professionals in the testing industry; professors and students in educational, school, clinical, and cognitive psychology. It will also serve as a useful text in doctoral-level courses in diagnostic testing, cognitive diagnostic assessment, test validity, diagnostic assessment, advanced educational measurement, psychometrics, and item response theory

Download or read book Using C written by Julien O. Hennefeld and published by Thomson Brooks/Cole. This book was released on 2002 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textAEs secret to success is the unique way that it fosters active participation by the reader, and its teaching of problem solving skills in conjunction with a thorough introduction to the C++ language.Hennefeld, Baker, and Burchard quickly get students actively involved in writing programs by using a four-step problem-solving methodology that is introduced in Chapter 1. This approach is used throughout the book in worked examples and programs that the students write. The authors also emphasize functions as a powerful way of breaking down problems into small sub-tasks. In addition, programming concepts and syntax are introduced within the framework of examples so students can see immediately how the programming structure is used.The authors also provide a thorough introduction to the C++ language, first covering procedural aspects to allow students to grasp basic syntax without getting bogged down in details of the object-oriented paradigm. Later, object-oriented features are introduced with great care over three chaptersuthe first devoted to writing client programs for preexisting classes, the second on the syntax for implementing classes, and the third on designing classes for specific programming problems. Effective use of pedagogical devices that foster active reading round out the approach that has proven to be so successful in helping students learn a large subset of the C++ language."
