Abstract

In contrast to the individualistic approach that characterises much current work in psycholinguistics, the work of the LISCO group takes a broad and inherently social approach to the study of language use. We discuss three of the central issues and themes that run through this collection of papers: (1) the types of other-relatedness in language; (2) the need to specify the loci of addressee effects in the language production process; and (3) methodological strategies for the study of other-relatedness. Connections between the work of the LISCO researchers and other investigators are noted. We conclude by discussing some considerations for future research on other-relatedness.
