Perspectives on Processing and Learning Workshop (X-PPL)</a>
brings together the growing community of researchers working
to expand the diversity of languages in the scope of
psycholinguistic and neuroscience research. This research is
driven by the recognition that structural/typological and
socio-cultural diversity provides important and unique
opportunities to see language processing and language learning
mechanisms at work. The bulk of processing and acquisition
research represents only a small fraction of linguistic
diversity, and this current state risks biasing both our
theories and our research questions. The X-PPL workshop aims
to fill this gap and provide a platform for cross-linguistic
research on language processing and learning.</span><br>

several editions held at the University of Zurich
(Switzerland), the conference will become itinerant this year
and will be hosted by the AHAL Aquitaine Multilingual Lab
(IKER-CNRS), at the University of Pau campus in Bayonne, from
September 23 to 25, 2026.</span><br>

data-mce-style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: #000000;">We
invite contributions on any topic on language processing and
acquisition which take into account typological diversity
and/or lesser-studied languages. We also invite abstracts on
(a) methodological, cultural or other issues that research on
language processing and learning outside of the lab might
encounter or (b) plans for cross-linguistic work.</span><br>
