| But Is Gender A Factor, Too?Study of Language Use in Children Suggests Sex Influences How Brain Processes Words
 
 
 2 comments | | Yeah, but come on, n=10 for boys and n=15 for girls.  It is really pushing the acceptable boundaries of inferential statistics to go from that to "men and woman process language differently".  They might as well have gone to a playground and vaguely listened to kids as they tried to pick up hot moms. 
 See, this is why nobody takes linguists seriously.

 | Neurolinguistic studies are expensive and underfunded jerk.  Your causality is backwards.  It is BECAUSE no one takes linguistics seriously that n=25.  Jerk. 
 This is why no one takes goodladd seriously.  That and the fact that most of his postings here and elsewhere are sarcastic/ironic in nature.
 
 Also, I am extremely dubious that anyone would use analogy-based processing or rhyme-based for that matter.  It seems like a cursory explanation to me.
