The chapters highlight recent developments in measurement theory, the meaning of numerical expressions and the relation between measurement scales and entailment scales. The authors provide explorations in formal and experimental semantics and pragmatics, as well as at the interfaces of this field with others including philosophy of language and sociolinguistics. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in these areas, as well as psychology, psycholinguistics and artificial intelligence. Nicole Gotzner is the Director of SPA Lab at the University of Potsdam, Germany. Uli Sauerland is the Vice Director and the leader of the Semantics and Pragmatics group at the Leibniz Centre for General Linguistics, Germany. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Pragmatics, Language and Cognition,$x2946-2584 606 $aPragmatics 606 $aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy 606 $aPsycholinguistics 606 $aCognition 606 $aPragmatics 606 $aPhilosophy of Language 606 $aPsycholinguistics and Cognitive Lingusitics 606 $aCognition 615 0$aPragmatics. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPsycholinguistics. 615 0$aCognition. 615 14$aPragmatics. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Language. 615 24$aPsycholinguistics and Cognitive Lingusitics. 615 24$aCognition. 676 $a306.44 676 $a401.43 702 $aGotzner$b Nicole 702 $aSauerland$b Uli 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910544845603321 996 $aMeasurements, numerals and scales$92918438 997 $aUNINA
