Michael Kaschak
Anuja Thomas
Mike Kaschak is a Professor of Psychology at Florida State University. He received his Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin in 2003, and has been at FSU ever since. Mike is interested in all things related to language. At various times, his lab has conducted research on language comprehension, language production, language learning, and the application of psycholinguistic work to the development of literacy skills.
Anuja is interested in understanding the temporal dynamics of conversation, particularly the timing of the transition between one speaker and another. She is especially interested in the individual and cultural factors that shape this timing, and the consequences that violations of conversational timing norms have for relationships.
Catherine Brousse
Catherine's research interests lie at the intersection of language and cognition. She is particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms involved in understanding figurative language and other types of non-literal uses of language.
