Abstract

The Psycholinguistics in the Short Short Stories of Sabir Rashid


   This study examines the psycholinguistic dimensions of Kurdish writer Sabir Rashid's short stories through language psychology, which investigates the relationship between brain, cognition, and language. Storytelling represents a fundamental human cognitive process involving structural linguistic analysis, understanding silence, discovering unexpressed themes, and conducting psychological examination.


The research analyzes Sabir Rashid's distinguished short story collection, recognizing his particular expertise in this literary form. His works demonstrate significant characteristics and richness from a language psychology perspective, warranting scholarly investigation. The methodology employs descriptive-analytical approaches incorporating psychoanalytic criticism elements.


 The study comprises two sections: theoretical language psychology foundations and practical psycholinguistic analysis of selected stories. All 81 Flash Fiction were categorized by psychological states in a tabular format. Key findings reveal Rashid's prominent use of psychological symbols and metaphors, employing language as a precise instrument for expressing human psychological and social conditions, achieving profound meaning within minimal narrative frameworks through distinctive literary expressions.


Keywords: psycholinguistics؛ Flash Fiction؛ Sabir Rashid؛ language and psychology؛ psychological meaning.
