معرفی
Dr. Monique Flecken is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Amsterdam, specializing in neurolinguistics and multilingualism. Her research investigates how language shapes event perception, focusing on dynamic situations like motion events and cross-linguistic cognitive differences.
- Current affiliation: University of Amsterdam, Faculty of Humanities
- Prior role: Senior Researcher at Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics
Her work explores the interplay between linguistic structures (e.g., grammatical aspect, verb semantics) and cognitive processes such as perception, memory, and attention. Methodologies include ERP studies, eye-tracking, and virtual reality experiments. Notably, she examines how languages with varying grammatical systems (e.g., Dutch, Turkish, Persian) influence event conceptualization.
Recent publications highlight her research trends, including language-specific effects on motion perception, the role of syntax in telicity judgments, and neural mechanisms underlying linguistic influence on cognition. She actively engages with interdisciplinary approaches, bridging linguistics and cognitive science.
