Birkbeck College

Research Associate: Phonology and Psycholinguistics

A three-year postdoctoral position is available for a linguist to work on a
psycholinguistic research project investigating the phonological and
morphological properties of lexical representations in the mental lexicon.
The project will focus on English, although parallel research will also be
conducted on Italian, Chinese, and Hebrew. We are looking here for
someone who is a first-rate phonologist and who is willing to take
seriously the challenge of working in a psycholinguistic environment
where experimental research and linguistic analysis are viewed as joint
inputs to a common theory of mental representation. The project is
ESRC-funded, starts 8/91, and the maximum starting salary (RA 1A) is
#15262 (inclusive of London weighting). Applications to Professor

cognition in the areas of memory, inference,~?language, and visual
perception. Candidates with strong computational (including
connectionist) and cognitive simulation backgrounds will be given
priority. Application review will begin May 15; the position will
remain open until filled. The University of Arizona is an equal
opportunity employer; minority and women candidates are encouraged to
