Multi- and interdisciplinary in nature, Understanding Formulaic Language brings together leading researchers in the field to provide a state-of-the-art account of what is known about the acquisition, processing, and use of formulaic language, focusing, in particular, on the recent developments and directions for future research. This is an essential resource for established researchers and graduate students in second language acquisition and pedagogy, corpus and cognitive linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, and pragmatics.
This work presents ten related articles that illustrate the role of processing instruction in second language acquisition. The articles provide both historical and current context, as well as describe the influence of the input processing model on PI.
This volume addresses theoretical and research domains related to questions of how forms-meaning connections are initiated, processed, and stored, and what internal and external factors may affect these mappings.
A work for those who use questionnaires to collect data for research or administrative purposes. Illustrated by concrete examples, it offers an overview of the theory of questionnaire design, and administration and processing, with a special emphasis on second language research applications.
Presents an introduction to the use of auditory, semantic, and syntactic priming methods for second language (L2) processing and acquisition research. This title provides a guidance for the use, design, and implementation of priming tasks and an overview of how to analyze and report priming research.
Researchers and educators routinely call for longitudinal research on language learning and teaching. This volume explores the connection between longitudinal study and advanced language capacities. It also explores what it would take to design systematic research programs for the longitudinal investigation of advanced L2 capacities.
Presents an introduction to the use of auditory, semantic, and syntactic priming methods for second language (L2) processing and acquisition research. This guide for the use, design, and implementation of priming tasks offers an overview of how to analyze and report priming research.
Explores learning second languages through a study of seven adults learning Japanese in a classroom setting. The research is grounded in a socio-cognitive framework based on Vygotsky's theory, analyzing both interactions between learners in the classroom and individual learners' private speech.
Dealing with formal features in Second Language Acquisition is defined within generative grammatical theory, such as the Principles and Parameters Theory and the Minimalist Program. This volume addresses the role of features in the versions of generative grammar.
This volume documents and describes the growth of task-based research in language acquisition. It presents the origins, principles and key distinctions of referential communication research in first and second language studies, plus analyses and illustrations of different types of materials.
Even though second-language learners may master the grammar and vocabulary of the new languages, they almost never achieve a native phonology (accent). This work covers the growing scholarship in this area, examining the issues in the field of second language acquisition and applied linguistics.
Aims to answer the questions about the validity and uses of think-alouds, verbal reports completed by research participants while they perform a task. This book offers an overview of how think-alouds have been used in language research, and presents a meta-analysis of findings from studies involving verbal tasks and think-alouds.
Besides a review of the relevant second language literature, this book presents a concise overview of the psychological research involving each topic. It focuses on a different individual difference variable. It is useful for students in linguistics, applied linguistics, modern languages, psychology programs, and others.
This volume reviews research on the role of interaction in second language acquisition (SLA) studies. It argues that an ethnomethodological approach to conversation analysis can provide valuable and methodological insights into how mundane conversation may function as resources for SLA.
A guide in the second language field that deals with the question of how to produce and use questionnaires as reliable and valid research instruments. It offers an overview of the theory of questionnaire design, administration, and processing, made accessible by real-life second language research applications.
Bringing conversational analysis into the study of second language pragmatics as an analytic paradigm, this volume addresses a difficult area for the interlanguage pragmatics research community - the balance between experimental method and the use of conversational data. Institutional talk provides authentic and consequential talk.
Case studies of individual language learners are a valuable means of illustrating issues connected with learning, using, and in some cases, losing another language. This volume provides an overview of case study methodology and examples of published case studies in applied linguistics.
Proposes a way to help second language acquisition develop a focus using the philosophy of science as the lens. This volume is of interest to researchers, educators, and graduate students in second language acquisition, applied linguistics, TESOL, and linguistics programs. It is useful for an introductory SLA course.
Language Aptitude: Advancing Theory, Testing, Research and Practice brings together cutting-edge global perspectives on foreign language aptitude. Drawing from educational psychology, cognitive science, and neuroscience, the editors have assembled interdisciplinary authors writing for an applied linguistics and education audience.
