Psychologists use tons of questionnaires. The medium is unavoidably language, but until recently, their semantic and pragmatic side has not received much attention. Very happy to lead the linguistic side of Dr Hynek Cígler's new GAČR project on reverse-coded (negated or antonymic) items!

Brno, náměstí Svobody 12:50 několik málo dnů před volbami, u stánku nikde nikdo, všechny ostatní obsazeny. Už podruhé jsem se s Vámi chtěl jít pobavit a nebyli jste tu. Vy chcete ty volby prohrát? @piratskastrana.bsky.social

Today at #AMLaP2025: In 🇨🇿, sentential negation causes both NPI and NCI (negative concord) illusions, contrary to the predictions of active scope and scalar theories. This is me saying my money is on feature percolation. Check out the poster here: www.researchgate.net/publication/...

It took some trying, but I got an illusion illusion with the comparative "More people have been to Russia than I have" illusions. Interestingly though, it's quite good with other types of linguistic illusions.

When I was an undergrad at Oxford, I always dreamt of hitting up to some commemoration ball rocking this folk dress from my native region of Moravia (Czechia), unfortunately it never worked out :(

New attraction paper alert 🚨 Czech very much lacks strong number attraction effects, so what happens when these speakers process attraction sentences in their L2 English? They show the effect! Joint work with @janchromy.bsky.social, Norbert Vanek and James Brand

Love my PsychLing class this semester - just got the data back from an NPI illusion experiment in 🇨🇿 that my students created the items for and ran on their friends... I didn't think much would come out of it but take a look at this harvest! I hope they'll be just as excited when they see this data 🤯

Brno dneska ráno, musel jsem si to vyfotit. Velmi doufám, že česká veřejnost si uvědomí, co se ve světě děje a na tohle neskočí (ale stavět byty musíme taky)
