About
Jyotsna Vaid is a psycholinguist who does research on neuropsychological and cognitive aspects of bilingualism, the relationship between language and thought, the processing of jokes, idioms and proverbs, orthographic influences in word recognition across languages, and the role of handedness and script direction in drawing directionality. Her work involves a comparative, crosslinguistic approach and relies on behavioral and neurobehavioral methods. Her studies have examined word and sentence processing in users of French, Spanish, English, Hindi, Urdu, Kannada, Malayalam, Mandarin, Korean, Japanese, Russian, and Turkish. Interested prospective graduate students and/or post-docs are invited to contact her.
Vaid is also a joint editor (with Vivian Cook and Benedetta Bassetti) of Writing Systems Research, a new, interdisciplinary journal that publishes empirical studies on the acquisition, analysis and processing of different orthographies in single and multiple language users. Inquiries and contributions are invited.
