SPA1084H: Experimental Approaches to Hispanic Linguistics

This course introduces students to experimental approaches in linguistics, with a special focus on central topics in Hispanic linguistics. It will cover all aspects of experimentation, including hypothesis development, experimental design, and data-collection techniques. The course will also cover discussion and training in presentation of experimental results. Students will receive training in the use of different experimental and corpus analysis techniques and will discuss paradigmatic examples of research papers in the areas of phonetics-phonology and morpho-syntax. Students will undertake empirical research on a theoretically relevant dimension of phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, or semantics of (any variety of) Spanish or Portuguese. This course is taught in English.
