Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Linguistics
  • Grammar
  • Artificial intelligence

Joan L. Bybee mainly investigates Linguistics, Lexicon, Lexical diffusion, Grammaticalization and Grammar. Her Linguistics research focuses on Regular and irregular verbs, American English, Repetition, Morphophonology and Variation. In Morphophonology, Joan L. Bybee works on issues like Variety, which are connected to Tense–aspect–mood and Grammatical category.

Her research integrates issues of Complex adaptive system, Cognitive science, Interlanguage, Second-language acquisition and Psycholinguistics in her study of Lexicon. Joan L. Bybee interconnects Morpheme, Theoretical linguistics and Communication in the investigation of issues within Lexical diffusion. Her Grammaticalization research incorporates elements of Generative grammar, Perfective aspect, Metaphorical extension and Implicature.

Her most cited work include:

  • The Evolution of Grammar: Tense, Aspect, and Modality in the Languages of the World (1270 citations)
  • Morphology: A study of the relation between meaning and form (1153 citations)
  • Phonology and language use (1089 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Joan L. Bybee spends much of her time researching Linguistics, Grammaticalization, Artificial intelligence, Natural language processing and Grammar. Her study in Phonology, Lexicon, Exemplar theory, Lexical diffusion and Language change are all subfields of Linguistics. Her Lexicon research integrates issues from Schema and Regular and irregular verbs, Past tense.

Joan L. Bybee studied Lexical diffusion and Word lists by frequency that intersect with American English. Her Grammaticalization research includes elements of Repetition, Cognitive science, Semantic change, Analytic language and Perfective aspect. Her Grammar study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Generative grammar, Natural language and Nominalization.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Linguistics (74.07%)
  • Grammaticalization (16.67%)
  • Artificial intelligence (12.04%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Linguistics (74.07%)
  • Sound change (9.26%)
  • Context (5.56%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary areas of study are Linguistics, Sound change, Context, Grammaticalization and Natural language processing. Her work in Language change, Adjective, Corpus linguistics, Affect and Morpheme is related to Linguistics. While the research belongs to areas of Morpheme, she spends her time largely on the problem of Modal verb, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Lexicon.

Joan L. Bybee combines subjects such as Corpus analysis, Language acquisition and American English with her study of Context. Her Grammaticalization study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Meaning, Phonetic form, Cognitive science, Cross linguistic and Semantic change. The concepts of her Natural language processing study are interwoven with issues in Mildly context-sensitive grammar formalism, Stochastic grammar and Categorization, Artificial intelligence.

Between 2010 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Usage-based Theory and Exemplar Representations of Constructions (68 citations)
  • Cognitive Processes in Grammaticalization (34 citations)
  • Usage‐based theory and grammaticalization (27 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Linguistics
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Grammar

Joan L. Bybee mostly deals with Grammaticalization, Linguistics, Cognitive science, Chunking and Artificial intelligence. Her Linguistics research spans across into subjects like Reduction and Brazilian Portuguese. Her Chunking study spans across into fields like Natural language processing and Categorization.
