About
Jun Hyung Yoon investigates the intersection of psycholinguistics, human-agent interaction, and bilingual cognition. His work explores how cross-cultural language differences shape social cognition during cooperative gameplay with artificial agents, and how bilingual speakers experience cognitive shifts when interacting with AI systems. His 2023 paper on cross-cultural language effects in human-agent interaction has garnered 13 citations, signaling growing interest in this emerging field. Yoon’s research addresses the classic question of linguistic relativity—whether language influences thought—by examining how bilinguals may shift cognitive paradigms when speaking different languages to artificial agents. This work has implications for designing more culturally adaptive AI and understanding the cognitive flexibility of bilingual speakers. By bridging psycholinguistics and human-robot interaction, Yoon contributes to a deeper understanding of how language, culture, and cognition intersect in technologically mediated communication, offering insights for both theoretical linguistics and practical AI design.
