O processo verbal ler e o seu processamento numa perspetiva psicolinguística

Abstract

This text aims to assert an approach to the verbal languaging processes - listening, speaking,reading and writing - in which their complementarity is highlighted, rather than their individualspecificity. It is argued that this analysis should be based on a psycholinguistic perspective,which explains what happens during their processing from beginning to end, in order to findout what exactly characterises them. Even though all four processes will be referred to, twoof them will be focused on - listening and reading. This choice is justified by the fact thatthey share multiple aspects, particularly the latent hard labour which some unjustly hide. Thisinjustice is counteracted throughout the text. Special attention has been given to the processreading due to its constant evocation writing imposed, and not only due to previous intention.The other processes will be present as they contribute, in different degrees, to the setting andlater development of reading. The main objective of this text is to encourage a problematisationfrom the psycholinguistic perspective of any topic related to its field of action.
