Publication ethics
Publication standards
Authors of original research should present an accurate description of the theoretical and experimental background, followed by methodology specifics and results as well as an objective discussion of the significance of the work.
Authorship
Authorship should be limited to those who meet the following criteria: (1) they have made a significant contribution to the conception, design or execution of the reported research and/or (2) have authored the manuscript or revised it critically. Others who have made substantial contributions to the research reported, such as technical help, writing and editing assistance, and general support, but who do not meet the criteria for authorship should not be listed as authors but should be acknowledged. The corresponding author should ensure that all and only appropriate coauthors are included in the paper and that all coauthors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.
Originality and plagiarism
Authors should ensure that they have written and submitted only entirely original works, and if they have used the work and/or words of others, then these works must be cited and/or acknowledged appropriately. Publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the work reported in the manuscript should also be cited. Plagiarism may take many forms, from copying or paraphrasing substantial parts of another’s paper to claiming results from research conducted by others. Plagiarism in any form constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is strictly unacceptable.
Acknowledgments
Authors should ensure that they have properly acknowledged the contributions of others and should also cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. Authors should not use information obtained in the course of providing confidential services, such as refereeing manuscripts or grant applications unless they have obtained the explicit written permission of the author(s) of the work involved. Funds and/or scholarships or any economic support in relation to the reported research should also be explicitly stated.

Submissions
Abstract submission guidelines
Each contributor to the conference may appear as a single author of only one paper and as a co-author of two additional papers. Submitted abstracts of one page, max. 500 words (excluding the title and the name(s) of the author(s)) should address the following criteria:
- Significance: Does this study address an important problem?
- Innovation: Does the study employ novel concepts and aims or original methods?
- Approach: Are the conceptual frameworks, designs, methods, and analyses adequate?
- Usefulness: How can the research objectives benefit the respective scientific area?
- Clarity: How clear and well-organized is the presentation?
Abstract layout guidelines
Title of paper
The title of the paper should be as short and as close to the general content of the paper as possible. Subtitles should be avoided. There should be no names of authors in the abstract and at most no more than 4 authors. The length of the abstract should be no more than 1 page, including references.
Object of study
You may start your abstract with a short description of the object of study/investigation as well as the theoretical context. It is best to state your questions/hypotheses in simple terms – avoid terminologies and/or scientific jargon that are too technical. In short: What have you done?
Methodology
Summarise the main aspects of your methodology, such as subjects, materials, technological context and whatever you consider essential for the readers to follow your work. In short: How have you done it?
Results
Summarise your results in a straightforward way. It is best to present your main results in relation to your questions/hypotheses. Avoid details, including statistics, which might require considerable thinking by the reader/reviewer. In short: What have you found?
Conclusions
From your results, you should draw conclusions that are as explicit as possible.
References
References in abstract submissions are optional and may be avoided altogether.
Instead, it is better to focus in this short space on (1) what you have done and (2) what you have found, i.e., your own work, rather than the work of others.
Submit your one-page abstract by 25 September 2023:
Submission of abstracts closed

Presentations
Oral presentations
The time slot for an oral presentation is 20 minutes, including a discussion. A talk should, therefore, not exceed 15 minutes. The room for oral presentations will be equipped with a multimedia PC running Windows, which has a CD/DVD drive, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Acrobat Reader available. You may bring your presentation on a CD or on a USB flash drive.
Only a limited number of papers will be presented in oral sessions.
Poster presentations
General information
Each poster display should clearly include the title and the name(s) of the presenter(s) at the top of the poster. Extensive, imaginative use of captioned illustrations, photographs, graphs, or other types of visually appealing material is key to a successful poster presentation. Lettering needs to be large enough to read from several meters away.
Materials
The suggested size for each poster is 120 (height) x 90 cm (width) (47.2 X 35.4 in), but you may also create a smaller poster. The Organising Committee of the Conference will provide push pins and a display board. Please bring other materials you may need such as tape or line level. You may find it useful to have on hand a pad of sketch paper and suitable drawing materials to assist in your explanations to observers. Please note that it is not possible to write or draw on the poster boards.
Location and time
Each poster is part of a session and will remain in place for at least one hour. For best results, please set up your poster presentation 15 minutes before the scheduled time. Plan on an exciting interaction with your “audience”. Poster sessions are an innovative and challenging way for you to present your data and new ideas and to meet colleagues in a creative setting.
The majority of papers will be in poster presentations.

12th International conference of experimental linguistics
11-13 October 2021
Athens, Greece
ExLing 2021
Call for papers
ExLing invites you to the 12th International Conference of Experimental Linguistics in Athens, Greece, from 11th to 13th October 2021.
We will gather in the University of Athens, close to the Acropolis. The nearby National Archaeological Museum houses arguably the most iconic historical artefact specifically related to language: a small amphora from the geometric period in the 8th century depicting one of the world’s earliest alphabets, which defines the spread of alphabets, such as the Greek, Roman and Cyrillic alphabets. The amphitheatre under the Acropolis also hosted poetry, drama and comedy millennia ago; the perfect backdrop to our Society and conference.
ExLing 2021 will facilitate the global exchange of innovative ideas and experimental approaches to language study. Hosting keynote lectures by some of the world’s foremost linguistics scholars, ExLing 2021 brings together leading experts in the application of experimental and computational methods to language study.
The ultimate objective of the conference is to foreground active participation in current developments of linguistic knowledge with the use of experimental methodologies, as well as to advance interdisciplinary research and international collaboration.
Following our established tradition, ExLing 2021 will host two special sessions, on Language Education and Language Pathology.
Our keynote speakers represent the cutting-edge in the field. After delivering their lectures, conference participants will have the opportunity to delve deeper into aspects of their current research and methodological approaches through audience discussion.

ExLing 2021
Special sessions
The ExLing 2021 conference includes two special sessions focusing on experimental methods and the state of the art in Language Education and Language Pathology.
Language Education
The special session on Language Education is related to research and applications in major aspects of language learning and language teaching as well as the development of methodologies and technical aids to promote the study of language. In addition to the general population, special interest groups, including individuals with special educational needs, migrant education, and teaching individuals in rehabilitation centres impose great challenges to language educators. Multilingual and bidialectal environments may impose further challenges to both educators and language learners. The special session on Language Education targets to bring together specialists from different disciplines and advance our knowledge on language teaching and language learning through experimental methods and approaches adapted to everyone’s needs.
The session will promote the best testing and evaluating pedagogical practices for native and second/foreign language teaching, designing interventions and effective language curricula in accordance with the school context, age of the learner (adults vs. children) and educational requirements, and fostering diversity in language education.
The session will host a keynote lecture on key aspects of the area along with a combination of oral and poster papers on diverse aspects of language education.
Submissions of abstracts related to the above objectives of the special session on Language Education are welcomed at ExLing 2020. To submit your abstract, please visit ExLing 2020 submissions’ page
Language Pathology
The special session on Language Pathology is related to research and applications in major aspects of language disorders as well as the development of methodologies and technical aids to promote language rehabilitation therapies. Language deficits are the predominant symptoms of many neurodegenerative conditions including Primary Progressive Aphasia, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Parkinson’s disease. The special session on Language Pathology targets to bring together interdisciplinary specialists and promote novel experimental methods that can complement and even improve current screening and/or diagnostic approaches and language batteries for testing and evaluating conditions affecting speech and language.
The session will promote interdisciplinary approaches among different research areas from applied and clinical linguistics to neuroscience and natural language processing.
The session will host a keynote lecture on key aspects of the area along with a combination of oral and poster papers on diverse aspects of language pathology.
Submissions of abstracts related to the above objectives of the special session on Language Pathology are welcomed at ExLing 2020. To submit your abstract, please visit ExLing 2021 submissions’ page.

Presentations
Guidelines for oral presentations
The time slot for an oral presentation is 20 minutes, including discussion. A talk should, therefore, not exceed 15 minutes. The room for oral presentations will be equipped with a multimedia PC running Windows, which has a CD/DVD drive, Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader available. You may bring your presentation on a CD or on a USB flash drive.
Only a limited number of papers will be presented as oral sessions.
Guidelines for poster presentations
General information
Each poster display should clearly include the title and the name(s) of the presenter(s) at the top of the poster. Extensive, imaginative use of captioned illustrations, photographs, graphs or other types of visually appealing material is key to a successful poster presentation. Lettering needs to be large enough to read from several feet away.
Materials
The suggested size for each poster is 120 (height) x 90 cm (width) (47.2 X 35.4 in), but you may also create a smaller poster. The Organising Committee of the Conference will provide push pins and a display board. Please bring other materials you may need such as a tape or line level. You may find it useful to have on hand a pad of sketch paper and suitable drawing materials to assist in your explanations to observers. Please note that it is not possible to write or draw on the poster boards.
Location and time
Each poster is part of a session and will remain in place for at least one hour. For best results, please set up your poster presentation 15 minutes before the scheduled time. Plan on an exciting interaction with your “audience”. Poster sessions are an innovative and challenging way for you to present your data and new ideas and to meet colleagues in a creative setting.
The majority of papers will be in poster presentations.

Presentations
Guidelines for oral presentations
The time slot for an oral presentation is 20 minutes, including discussion. A talk should, therefore, not exceed 15 minutes. The room for oral presentations will be equipped with a multimedia PC running Windows, which has a CD/DVD drive, Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader available. You may bring your presentation on a CD or on a USB flash drive.
Only a limited number of papers will be presented as oral sessions.
Guidelines for poster presentations
General information
Each poster display should clearly include the title and the name(s) of the presenter(s) at the top of the poster. Extensive, imaginative use of captioned illustrations, photographs, graphs or other types of visually appealing material is key to a successful poster presentation. Lettering needs to be large enough to read from several feet away.
Materials
The suggested size for each poster is 120 (height) x 90 cm (width) (47.2 X 35.4 in), but you may also create a smaller poster. The Organising Committee of the Conference will provide push pins and a display board. Please bring other materials you may need such as a tape or line level. You may find it useful to have on hand a pad of sketch paper and suitable drawing materials to assist in your explanations to observers. Please note that it is not possible to write or draw on the poster boards.
Location and time
Each poster is part of a session and will remain in place for at least one hour. For best results, please set up your poster presentation 15 minutes before the scheduled time. Plan on an exciting interaction with your “audience”. Poster sessions are an innovative and challenging way for you to present your data and new ideas and to meet colleagues in a creative setting.
The majority of papers will be in poster presentations.

Authors of original research should present an accurate description of the theoretical and experimental background, followed by methodology specifics and results as well as an objective discussion of the significance of the work.
Authorship
Authorship should be limited to those who meet the following criteria: (1) have made a significant contribution to the conception, design or execution of the reported research and/or (2) authored the manuscript or revised it critically. Others who made substantial contributions to the research reported, such as technical help, writing and editing assistance, general support, but who do not meet the criteria for authorship should not be listed as authors but should be acknowledged. The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate coauthors and no inappropriate ones are included in the paper and that all coauthors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.
Originality and plagiarism
Authors should ensure that they have written and submitted only entirely original works, and if they have used the work and/or words of others, then these works must be cited and/or acknowledged appropriately. Publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the work reported in the manuscript should also be cited. Plagiarism may take many forms, from copying or paraphrasing substantial parts of another’s paper, to claiming results from research conducted by others. Plagiarism in any form constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is strictly unacceptable.
Acknowledgements
Authors should ensure that they have properly acknowledged the contribution of others, and should also cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. Authors should not use information obtained in the course of providing confidential services, such as refereeing manuscripts or grant applications unless they have obtained the explicit written permission of the author(s) of the work involved. Funds and/or scholarships or any economic support in relation to the reported research should also be explicitly stated.

Presentations
Guidelines for oral presentations
The time slot for an oral presentation is 20 minutes, including discussion. A talk should, therefore, not exceed 15 minutes. The room for oral presentations will be equipped with a multimedia PC running Windows, which has a CD/DVD drive, Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader available. You may bring your presentation on a CD or on a USB flash drive.
Only a limited number of papers will be presented as oral sessions.
Guidelines for poster presentations
General information
Each poster display should clearly include the title and the name(s) of the presenter(s) at the top of the poster. Extensive, imaginative use of captioned illustrations, photographs, graphs or other types of visually appealing material is key to a successful poster presentation. Lettering needs to be large enough to read from several feet away.
Materials
The suggested size for each poster is 120 (height) x 90 cm (width) (47.2 X 35.4 in), but you may also create a smaller poster. The Organising Committee of the Conference will provide push pins and a display board. Please bring other materials you may need such as a tape or line level. You may find it useful to have on hand a pad of sketch paper and suitable drawing materials to assist in your explanations to observers. Please note that it is not possible to write or draw on the poster boards.
Location and time
Each poster is part of a session and will remain in place for at least one hour. For best results, please set up your poster presentation 15 minutes before the scheduled time. Plan on an exciting interaction with your “audience”. Poster sessions are an innovative and challenging way for you to present your data and new ideas and to meet colleagues in a creative setting.
The majority of papers will be in poster presentations.

Presentations
Guidelines for oral presentations
The time slot for an oral presentation is 20 minutes, including discussion. A talk should, therefore, not exceed 15 minutes. The room for oral presentations will be equipped with a multimedia PC running Windows, which has a CD/DVD drive, Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader available. You may bring your presentation on a CD or on a USB flash drive.
Only a limited number of papers will be presented as oral sessions.
Guidelines for poster presentations
General information
Each poster display should clearly include the title and the name(s) of the presenter(s) at the top of the poster. Extensive, imaginative use of captioned illustrations, photographs, graphs or other types of visually appealing material is key to a successful poster presentation. Lettering needs to be large enough to read from several feet away.
Materials
The suggested size for each poster is 120 (height) x 90 cm (width) (47.2 X 35.4 in), but you may also create a smaller poster. The Organising Committee of the Conference will provide push pins and a display board. Please bring other materials you may need such as a tape or line level. You may find it useful to have on hand a pad of sketch paper and suitable drawing materials to assist in your explanations to observers. Please note that it is not possible to write or draw on the poster boards.
Location and time
Each poster is part of a session and will remain in place for at least one hour. For best results, please set up your poster presentation 15 minutes before the scheduled time. Plan on an exciting interaction with your “audience”. Poster sessions are an innovative and challenging way for you to present your data and new ideas and to meet colleagues in a creative setting.
The majority of papers will be in poster presentations.

Guidelines for oral presentations
The time slot for an oral presentation is 20 minutes, including discussion. A talk should, therefore, not exceed 15 minutes. The room for oral presentations will be equipped with a multimedia PC running Windows, which has a CD/DVD drive, Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader available. You may bring your presentation on a CD or on a USB flash drive.
Only a limited number of papers will be presented as oral sessions.
Guidelines for poster presentations
General information
Each poster display should clearly include the title and the name(s) of the presenter(s) at the top of the poster. Extensive, imaginative use of captioned illustrations, photographs, graphs or other types of visually appealing material is key to a successful poster presentation. Lettering needs to be large enough to read from several feet away.
Materials
The suggested size for each poster is 120 (height) x 90 cm (width) (47.2 X 35.4 in), but you may also create a smaller poster. The Organising Committee of the Conference will provide push pins and a display board. Please bring other materials you may need such as a tape or line level. You may find it useful to have on hand a pad of sketch paper and suitable drawing materials to assist in your explanations to observers. Please note that it is not possible to write or draw on the poster boards.
Location and time
Each poster is part of a session and will remain in place for at least one hour. For best results, please set up your poster presentation 15 minutes before the scheduled time. Plan on an exciting interaction with your “audience”. Poster sessions are an innovative and challenging way for you to present your data and new ideas and to meet colleagues in a creative setting.
The majority of papers will be in poster presentations.

Call for papers
This ExLing 2008 is a follow-up Workshop on Experimental Linguistics, held in Athens, Greece, 28-30 August 2006, under the auspices of the International Speech Communication (ISCA) and the University of Athens. The Workshop aims to bring together professionals working with language in different settings and to promote discussion and exchange of ideas on approaches to the study of language. Main areas of concern will be:
- The use of experimental methodologies for the production of linguistic knowledge.
- The effects of different factors, such as lexical, prosodic and syntactic ones, as well as interactions between factors with reference to linguistic structures and the organisation of language.
- The relation between sound and meaning as a function of linguistic categories and structures. The Workshop will focus on experimental and interdisciplinary approaches with the ultimate objective of boosting international research and collaboration.
The following subjects and disciplines are related to the Workshop:
- Cognitive Linguistics
- Neurolinguistics
- Speech Production
- Speech Acoustics
- Phonology
- Morphology
- Syntax
- Prosody
- Speech perception
- Psycholinguistics
- Pragmatics
- Semantics
- Discourse Linguistics
- Language Pathology
- Sociolinguistics
- Language Education
- Computational Linguistics
- Language Technology
Submission of abstracts covering fundamental linguistic notions, such as segments, syllables, words, phrases and discourse units, are invited with reference to the aims of the Workshop.
The Workshop will contain a combination of plenary oral and poster sessions along with interdisciplinary panel discussions.
