Language and communication
Open accessAbstract
From Chapter 1, "By Way of Introduction": "The orientation of this book is strongly biased in two directions; it is scientific, and it is psychological.A scientific study of language, as opposed to a speculative discussion, begins with direct observations of communicating individuals and searches for the relation of these observations to the existing body of scientific knowledge.There exist many speculations of a literary or philosophical nature that are inter- esting and stimulate the imagination; unless these speculations lead to scientific observations and generalizations, they are not discussed here.Rejecting opinions in favor of facts helps to reduce this vast topic to manageable proportions.The psychological bias restricts the discussion to the effects of language on the behavior of the individual.Psychology is the science of behavior.Our present interest is not in language as one of the social graces, but as a kind of cooperative human behavior."

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
