Brown, Jonathan David – Australian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2022
Contrastive rhetoric (CR) has made great contributions to our understanding of L2 writing. Nevertheless, CR has endured countless criticisms over the years, resulting in "reimagined" forms attempting to address many of these criticisms. In doing so, these forms have shaped CR into a collection of complex ideologies that have…

Gao, Fei; Wang, Jianqin; Zhao, Cecilia Guanfang; Yuan, Zhen – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022
The present study used a repetition priming paradigm to investigate the basic morphological units stored in mental lexicon for Chinese as second language learners (L2) and Chinese native speakers (L1). Meanwhile, the modulation of Chinese morpheme property (bound or free) in lexical processing was examined. The results revealed that for…

Fernández Cuenca, Sara; Jegerski, Jill – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2023
The present study investigated the second language processing of grammatical mood in Spanish. Eye-movement data from a group of advanced proficiency second language users revealed nativelike processing with irregular verb stimuli but not with regular verb stimuli. A comparison group of native speakers showed the expected effect with both types of…

De Anda, Stephanie; Blossom, Megan; Abel, Alyson D. – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2020
The present case study describes a complexity approach to the treatment of tense and agreement deficits in a child (SC, age 3 years and 11 months, male) with a delay in morphosyntax. We investigate whether it is possible to elicit target treatment structures (auxiliary BE in questions) in a child who does not attempt them spontaneously.…

Berent, Iris; Bat-El, Outi; Brentari, Diane; Platt, Melanie – Cognitive Science, 2020
Does knowledge of language transfer across language modalities? For example, can speakers who have had no sign language experience spontaneously project grammatical principles of English to American Sign Language (ASL) "signs"? To address this question, here, we explore a grammatical illusion. Using spoken language, we first show that a…

Parents are often expected to be the primary implementers of intervention for their young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The provision of a few hours a week of intervention by a trained therapist, in addition to parent-implemented intervention, could increase child outcomes compared to parent-implemented intervention in isolation.…

Clifton Pye – First Language, 2024
The Mayan language Mam uses complex predicates to express events. Complex predicates map multiple semantic elements onto a single word, and consequently have a blend of lexical and phrasal features. The chameleon-like nature of complex predicates provides a window on children's ability to express phrasal combinations at the one-word stage of…

Nuria Sagarra; Laura Fernández-Arroyo; Cristina Lozano-Argüelles; Joseph V. Casillas – Language Learning, 2024
We investigated the role of cue weighting, second language (L2) proficiency, and L2 daily exposure in L2 learning of suprasegmentals different from the first language (L1), using eye-tracking. Spanish monolinguals, English-Spanish learners, and Mandarin--Spanish learners saw a paroxytone and an oxytone verb (e.g., "FIRma-firMÓ"…

Davies, Benjamin; Rattanasone, Nan Xu; Davis, Aleisha; Demuth, Katherine – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: The plural is one of the first grammatical morphemes acquired by English-speaking children with normal hearing (NH). Yet, those with hearing loss show delays in both plural comprehension and production. However, little is known about the effects of unilateral hearing loss (UHL) on children's acquisition of the plural, where children's…

Sümer Dodur, Halime Miray – International Online Journal of Education and Teaching, 2021
This study investigated the contribution of inflectional morphological awareness to word reading and reading comprehension in the Turkish language. Participants with learning disability (25 sixth-grades, 25 fourth grades) and typical development (25 sixth-grades, 25 fourth grades) were given two tasks of inflectional morphological awareness.…

Stephens, Orpheus Sebastian; Sanderson, Ian James – THAITESOL Journal, 2021
The aim of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of teaching English grammar tense based on the concept of two English grammar tenses, past and present. The focus group is EFL/ESL learners of English. Prior research in the area of EFL/ESL teaching reveals that a number of teachers, linguists, and publishers of EFL/ESL texts claim that…

Beltrán, David; Liu, Bo; de Vega, Manuel – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
Negation is known to have inhibitory consequences for the information under its scope. However, how it produces such effects remains poorly understood. Recently, it has been proposed that negation processing might be implemented at the neural level by the recruitment of inhibitory and cognitive control mechanisms. On this line, this manuscript…

Tian, Ye; van Tiel, Bob; Clin, Élise; Breheny, Richard – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
Although the linguistic properties of polar questions have been extensively studied, comparatively little is known about how polar questions are processed in real time. In this paper, we report on three eye-tracking experiments on the processing of positive and negative polar questions in English and French. Our results show that in the early…

Fu, Mengxia; Li, Shaofeng – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
This study examines the associations between implicit and explicit language aptitude and the effects of the timing of corrective feedback (CF). A total of 112 seventh-grade EFL learners were assigned to three groups: Immediate CF, Delayed CF, and Task Only. The three groups underwent three treatment sessions during which they performed six focused…

de Carvalho, Alex; Gomes, Victor; Trueswell, John – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2023
We studied English-learning children's ability to learn the meanings of novel words from sentences containing truth-functional negation (Exp1) and to use the semantics of negation to inform word meaning (Exp2). In Exp1, 22-month-olds (n = 21) heard dialogues introducing a novel verb in either negative-transitive "("Mary didn't blick the…
