Scandinavian Association for Language and Cognition (SALC)
The Scandinavian Association for Language and Cognition (SALC) was
formed on June 11 2009 during the Second International Conference of the
Swedish Association for Language and Cognition, held at Stockholm
University involving linguists, psychologists, cognitive scientists and
semioticians, working on a variety of topics and utilising different
methodologies.
The major goal of the association is to promote the study of the relationship
between language and cognition. This involves
any type of research in which language is not treated in isolation (e.g. as a "module"),
but both as based on structures and processes of general cognition and social cognition,
and as affecting such structures and processes. The association is intended to be a forum
for cooperation and exchange of ideas between disciplines, fields of study and theoretical frameworks.
