Perspective’ is a common term in phenomenology, in social psy- chology, and in language psychology. The perceptual, cognitive and social evi- dence gathered in these different contexts points towards a cognitive theory of perspectivity which we are constructing and trying to apply to phenomena of lan- guage production and comprehension in a social context. Several experiments demonstrate the influence of perspective on text produc;iw and text comprehen- sion. It is shown that perspective affects not only content variables but also lin- guistic structure. The results show effects on macrostructures, verbs and verbal slips, as well as on the choice of the grammatical subject and on inferences about the events and actors presented in a film or in a text. Effects are produced by perspectives of speaker as well as of hearer and by perspectives linguistically realised in a text. Implications for a conception of cognitive and linguisticperspec- tivity are discussed.
