sebelum membahas tentang
psikolinguistics, perhatikan berikut ini :
1. Mengapa memilih Psikolinguistics
?
Karena, Psikolinguistics merupakan satu teori pembelajaran
(menurut teori behaviorisme) berdasarkan bahasa yang dianggap sebagai satu
system tabiat dan kemampuan kemampuan yang menghubungkan isyarat dengan
perilaku.
2. Apa Psikolinguistics ?
Von
Humboldt (1767-1835), pakar linguistik berkebangsaan Jerman, telah mencoba
mengkaji hubungan antara bahasa dengan pemikiran manusia. Caranya dengan
membandingkan tata bahasa dari bahasa-bahasa yang berlainan dengan
tabiat-tabiat bangsa-bangsa penutur bahasa itu. Ferdinand
de Saussure (1858-1913), pakar linguistik berkebangsaan Swiss, Beliau
memperkenalkan tiga istilah tentang bahasa yaitu langage (bahasa umumnya
bersifat abstrak), Langue (bahasa tertentu yang bersifat abstrak), parole
(bahasa sebagai tuturan konkret).
Dari berbagai sumber mengenai
keterkaitan Psikologi dalam linguistik dapat di simpulkan
bahwa dalam pembelajaran bahasa atau linguistik ini pasti membutuhkan psikologi
atau kejiwaan dan bakat yang dimiliki masing-masing Individu yang saling
berkaitan. Dalam bahasa manusia memiliki Language Acquisition Device (LAD)
untuk melakukan kegiatan berbahasa dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.
3. Apa yang dipilih dari Linguistics Murni ?
In
linguistics, it is the study of interpretation of signs or symbols used in the
institution or the community in specific circumstances and context. In this
view, voice, facial expressions, body language, and proxemics have content
semantics (meaning), and each of which consists of several branches of study.
In written language, things like the structure of paragraphs and punctuation
bear semantic content, other forms of language bore other semantic content.
A. HISTORY OF BIRTH Psycholinguistics
1. In Linguistics Psychology
Von
Humboldt (1767-1835), German linguist, has tried to examine the relationship
between languages with human thinking. You do this by comparing the grammar
of different languages with the traits of nations speaking it. Ferdinand de
Saussure (1858-1913), linguist Swiss nationality, he introduced the three terms
of the language that is langage (language usually abstract), Langue (specific
language that is abstract), parole (language as a concrete utterance).
From various sources on the association of Psychology in
linguistics can be concluded that in learning languages or linguistics is
definitely in need of psychological or psychiatric and talents of each
individual interrelated. In human language has a Language Acquisition Device
(LAD) to conduct a language in everyday life.
2. Linguistics in Psychology
John Dewey (1859-1952), an American psychologist, a pure empiricism. He
said grade assessment based on understanding childhood we can determine the
tendency of mind (mental) childhood is associated with linguistic differences.
Such assessment is, according to Dewey will provide great assistance to the language
of psychology in general. Karl Buchler, berkebanngsaan German linguist, in his
book Theorie Sprach (1934), he stated that the language of human being has
three function called Kungabe (then called Ausdruck) Appell (previously called
Auslosung), and Darstellung. What is meant by Kungabe adalh communicative
action that is realized in verbal form. Appell is a request addressed to
someone else. While darstellung is a depiction of subject matter that is communicated.
Weiss one prominent a figure psikolingustik behaviorism which has paved the
way towards the birth of the discipline psikolinggustik. Weiss also been
pulled, ukakan a number of problems to be solved by linggustik and psychology
from the point of behaviorism. Among those problems are as follows:
1) Language is a set of responses that amount is not limited to a stimulus.
2) Basically the behavior of language unites members of a community into the
organization of the nervous motion.
3) Conduct a language is a tool to transform and diversify tingle one's
activities as a result of inheritance and acquisition results.
4) The language can be a stimulus to a response, or is one responsterhadap
a stimulus.
5) language as a stimulus response substitute for objects and circumstances
that actually allows us to bring back something that breathing occurs, and analyze
this event in its parts.
3. Cooperation Psychology and Linguistics
Chaer (in Rose, 2012) says that the direct cooperation between the
disciplines of psychology and linguistics started since 1860. That is by Heyman
Steinthal, a psychologist who turned linguist, and Moria Lazarus a
linguist-turned psychologists to publish a journal devoted specifically to talk
about the psychology of language from the point
linguistics and psychology.
According to Steinthal, a psychological science may not be able to live
without a knowledge of languages. He also said that the only way to get into
the mind of man is through the laws of the origin of language and not through
human senses. This cooperation is more closely conducted in 1901 in Germany by
Albert Thumb a linguist with Karl Marbe a psychologist as a result of his
cooperation. Specifically Thumb and Marbe has conducted in-depth study of the
language by means of cooperation between the linguistic analysis of the analogy
with a psychological analysis of the relationship of substitutions language.
Fundamentals
of psycholinguistics, according to some experts, in a book edited by Osgood and
Sebeok above are as follows:
1) Psycholinguistics is a linguistic theory based on the language
considered as a system of interconnected elements.
2) Psycholinguistics is a learning theory (the theory of behaviorism) based
on the language are regarded as one system character and the capability of connecting
with behavioral cues.
3) Psycholinguistics is an information theory that considers language as a
tool to convey an object.
4. Psikolingustik As Self Discipline
Formally psikolingustik birth marked by the opening of the special program
psikolingustik in 1953 by R. Brown. Sarjanah first (Ph.D.) generated by this
program is Eric Lenneberg, which is very much its role in the field of
psikolingustik.
Prior to the publication of two books were very important in the
development psikilingustik, namely Verbal Behavior (1957) by Skinner and book
Syantactic Structures (1957) by Noam Chomsky, Leshley has suggested the
existence of several problems that can be solved together by experts psikoligi
and linguistic experts. In Leshley theory states that the birth of an utterance
is not a response to a spate ties that come from outside, but is a reasonable
simultaneous events, and the speech was merely syntactic structures is not
directly linked to the order form.
In that case Lenneberg states that humans possessed biological
kecebderungan specifically to acquire a language that is not owned animals, the
reason is sebahai follows:
1) The presence of typical centers in the brain for language.
2) Method of language development in all infants are the same.
3) The difficulty is experienced to inhibit the growth of human language
4) All the languages in the world have the same parts that are universal
5. Three Generations In Psikolingustik
a. Psikolingustik First Generation
Psikolingustik first generation is psikolingustik with pera experts
who wrote the article in a collection of essays entitled Psycholingustics.
Theories of behaviorism's behavior or language identified as a response system
that directly and indirectly to the stimulus erbal and nonverbal. Orientation
is the stimulus-response psychology orientation.
Regarding this first generation psikolingustik theory, Perera (1996) noted
that there are three weaknesses, as follows:
1) The reactive nature of psikolingustik about language.
2) The first Psikolingustik is otomistik.
3) Psikolingustik This first generation is indiidualis.
Their three inimemang weaknesses can not be denied. However, these theories
can psikolingustik Oggood and Sebeok are acceptable as a mediator between the
theory of behavioral theories (behaviorism) and cognitive theory.
b. Psikolingustik Second Generation
According to Mahler and Noizet, psikilingustik second generation has been
able to overcome the atomistic characteristics of psikolingustik Osgood-Sobeok.
Psikolingustik second generation found in the process of language is not the
language grains obtained, but Kaida and systems kaidalah obtained.
Leontive a psycholinguists Russia believes there are several
characteristics psikolingustik first generation, which should be avoided even
still looked and continue. According to the second generation reaction Leontive
attitude not seen in Chomky and Miller although their interpretations of the
verbal structure is more complex. In addition, the characteristics of
individualism is still visible without criticism. In fact, this individualism
characteristic seems to be protected because of social roles and social
environment increases to actualize rules inherited universal language.
c. Psikolingustik Third Generation
Psikolingustik second generation stated that their analysis of
language has exceeded the limit of the sentence. However, the reality of their
analysis is limited to the analysis of the relationship between the sentence
and the sentence, has not reached the discourse.
Some of the
concepts related to the analysis of the topics have been introduced, but still
no sequel. Psycholinguists second generation also drew a parallel between the
linguistic and mental processes of cognitive psychology. The level of
linguistic and cognitive psychology level design processes that parallel can be
seen in the following chart.
linguistic subsystems
Level design Psikolingustik
a)
Analysis of discourse
b)

This necessity gave
birth psikolingustik by G. Werstch the third generation in his book Two
Problems for the New Psycholinguistics named New Psycholinguistics or new
psikolingustik. The characteristics of third generation psikolingustik are as
follows:
1) First, their orientation to psychology, behavioral psychology tetepi not
2) Second, their disengagement from karangka "psikolingustik
phrase" and involvement in psikolingustik that based on the situation and
context
3) Third, there is a shift from the analysis of the speech that abstract
unity psychological analysis of the communications and conjecture.
B. RELATIONSHIP LANGUAGE THINK and cultured
1. Theory wilhelm Von Humbolot
wilhelm Von Humbolot, scholars Jerma abab 19th emphasize their dependence
on the language of human thought, maksutnya worldview of a culture, a society
is determined by the language of the community itself.
Von
Humbolot found the substance of the language itself consists of two parts, the
first part of the sounds and the second part is the thoughts that have not yet
formed.
From the description above that language is the outward form, while the
mind is in the form, the outward form language that we hear, whereas in the
form resides in the brain.
2. The theory of Sapir-Whorf
Edward (1884-1938) American linguist says that human beings live in this
world under the "twelve cation" language that has become a tool of
instruction in public life, according to Sapir, has been the fact that the life
of a community most "established" beyond tabiat- character and
plumb-plumb the language, that's why no two the same language so that it can be
considered have a same society.
Benjamin Lee Whorf (1897-1941) rejected the classical view of the
relationship of language and thought which says that language and thought are
two things that stand-alone sediri, the classical view that says even though
every language has sounds different, but all of them said rumusa
same-formulation is based on the same thinking and observation.
According
to Whorf, grammatical system of a language even just a tool to express ideas,
but also the formation of ideas, it is a person's mental activity program, deciding
a person's mental structure. In other words, the word language that shape the
way a person's mind (Simanjuntak, 1987).
3. Theory of Jean Piaget
Piaget French scholars argue it is the mind that form the language, without
thought language would not exist, pemikiranlah decisive aspects of syntactic
and lexical language, even the opposite.
Regarding the relationship with the activities of the intellect (mind)
Piaget suggests two important things, namely:
1) Source of intellectual activity there is in language, developed
sensomotorik, namely a scheme, the descriptions of the aspects sruktur
factions, and relationships, objects, and forms the basis of irregularities and
operation pemakayan back.
2) Establishment of the ideas put forward and shaped at the same time with
language acquisition. Both mamiliki more general processes, namely the
constitution fingsi emblem in general, funhsi emblem is characterized by a wide
range of behaviors that occur simultaneously in its development.
4. Theory Vygotsky L.S
Vygotsky scholar Russian nation, believes there is one stage of language
development before their minds, and their minds a stage prior to their language
In studying the movement of the mind is emotion investigate the two parts
of speech, the speech in which menpunyai sense, which is the phonetic or aspect
sapek-speech sounds.
5. The theory of Noam Chomsky
Relations of language and thought Chomsky resubmit the classical theory
called conscience Chomsky hypothesis asserts that the study of language opens
good perspectives in penkajian mental processes (thinking) man.
Hypothesis conscience say that the structure of the language is the
conscience, which means that under the formula from birth. Hypothesis conscience
found structures in the language is the same.
6. Theory Eric Lenneberg
The relationship of language and thought, Eric proposed a theory called the
theory of a special language skills. Menuru Eric ample evidence to show that
people receive the original biological heritage of the ability to communicate
in a language that is specific to human and has nothing to do with intelligence
and reasoning
7. Theory of Bruner
Relationships language and thought Bruner introduced a theory called the
theory intrumentalisme, according to this theory of human language is a tool
for developing and refining the idea.
Bruner argues that language and thought develops from the same source,
further language and thought appliance into force of the action, besides that
there are two skills that involve language, namely skills linggustik and
communications skills, da Bruner also introduce their skills analysis possessed
by every human being who speak ,
8. Kekontroversian Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis
a. theory Hypotheses
1) Von Humboldt said that their view of life are manifold because of the
diversity of language systems and their universal systems owned by the
languages in the world.
2) Sapir-Whorf says that the structure of language determines the structure
of the mind.
3) Piaget said that the structure of thought formed by behavior, not by the
structure of the language.
4) Vygotsky said that in the beginning of language and mind developed
sendiru-alone and do not affect each other.
5) Chomsky mengataka that language and thought are two systems apart has
keotomiannya respectively
6) Lenneberg say that humans have already received an inheritance of
biology at birth
7) Bruner said that language is a tool for people to think, to enhance and
develop pemikirab it.
Among the theories or hypothesis, Sapir-Whorf hypothesis is the most
controversial, this hypothesis says that the way the mind and one's culture or
society is determined or influenced by the structure of the language. Raises
many criticisms and reactions of the philosophers, linggistik, psychology,
psikolinggustik, anthropology and etc.
