Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden

Rolf Harald Baayen gilt als einer der international besten und innovativsten Forscher auf dem Gebiet der Wortschatzforschung und der quantitativen Linguistik. Er ist einer der Pioniere der computergestützten und empirischen Sprachforschung und Psycholinguistik und hat grundlegende Beiträge etwa zum Verständnis der menschlichen Sprachfähigkeit und zur Rolle des Gedächtnisses bei der Sprachverarbeitung geleistet. An der Universität Tübingen soll Baayen den Lehrstuhl für Quantitative Linguistik übernehmen und helfen, die Sprachforschung als einen Schlüsselbereich in der Strategie der Universität voranzubringen.
