Profile
When people speak, they strike a balance between information conveyed with language and information conveyed in other ways, e.g., through gestures, intonation, and the environment where conversation is taking place. Listeners, in turn, draw on these information sources to understand what the speaker means. The goal of research in my laboratory is to understand the mental components that underlie this multifaceted process.
