Neuropragmatics: Brain and Communication [PDF]
Our field of research is cognitive pragmatics, that is, the theoretical and empirical study of the mental events involved in human communication. Communication is a form of social activity; more precisely, it is an agent’s intentional and overt attempt ...

Neuropragmatics: Extralinguistic Communication after Closed Head Injury [PDF]
This work is concerned with the decay of communicative abilities after head trauma. A protocol composed of 16 videotaped scenes was devised in order to investigate the comprehension of several types of communicative actions realized with extralinguistic means, like pointing or clapping.

Over the last decades, theoretical and empirical evidence, first provided by language pragmatics and then by clinical pragmatics and neuropragmatics, has shown the importance of context and of the effective uses of languages in the analysis of the functioning of verbal communication, under normal and deficit conditions, starting from the assumption ...

Reflections on Pragmemes: Towards the Development of Societal Neuropragmatics
Although it is well known that in a linguistic context it is not only the knowledge of the world’s state of things that plays a fundamental role but there are also speaker’s beliefs, intentions and expectations to take into account, the concept of context is not yet well defined.

Neuropragmatics: Neuropsychological Constraints on Formal Theories of Dialogue
We are interested in the validation of a cognitive theory of human communication, grounded in a speech acts perspective. The theory we refer to is outlined, and a number of predictions are drawn from it. We report a series of protocols administered to 13 brain-injured subjects and to a comparable control group.

Neuropragmatics: A scientometric review
Applied Neuropsychology: Adult, 2023Neuropragmatics investigates brain functions and neural activities responsible for pragmatic language abilities, often impaired in disorders such as hemisphere damage, autism, schizophrenia, and neurodegenerative disorders. This study examined the development of neuropragmatics and existing neuroimaging evidence using bibliometric and scientometric ...
