Kim, Ju-Ri – Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2021
Background/Objectives: There is no attempt to investigate the relationships between dependency and markedness even though the syntactic roles in language are decided by dependency relations and markers. The main objective of this study was to understand markedness beyond syntactical tables and propose a syntax graph with various syntax structures…

Dudschig, Carolin; Kaup, Barbara; Svaldi, Jennifer; Gulewitsch, Marco Daniel – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
Recent studies have suggested that negation comprehension falls back onto inhibitory brain systems that are also crucial for impulse control and other non-linguistic control domains (Beltran et al., 2018, 2019; de Vega et al., 2016; Liu et al., 2020). Against this backdrop, the present pilot study investigated the use of negation within…

Crible, Ludivine – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
Seminal studies on negation revealed that negative sentences are difficult to process, as they require an extra mental step. Similarly, at the discourse level, concession has been repeatedly shown to be more complex than other relations such as result because it implies the denial of an inference. The affinity between negation and concession…

Das, Arijit – Online Submission, 2021
IUPAC nomenclature of lower alkanes (1C to 10C) is quite common and digestible. But students face problems remembering and predict IUPAC word-root during IUPAC nomenclature of higher alkanes (C >11). Here in this innovative article, I have tried to focus IUPAC nomenclature of higher alkanes (11C to 90C) through the prediction of IUPAC word root…

Minkyung Choi – Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, 2025
This paper examines the need to integrate students' full linguistic repertoires into literacy instruction in middle and high school classrooms. Traditional monoglossic approaches often neglect the linguistic assets multilingual students bring, limiting their academic potential. Drawing on translanguaging theory, this paper explores three…

Rudolph, Johanna M.; Dollaghan, Christine A.; Crotteau, Simone – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: We investigated the finite verb morphology composite (FVMC), a measure associated with developmental language disorder (DLD), in a large community sample to provide evidence on its distribution, its association with other variables, and its sensitivity and specificity. Method: We coded percent occurrence of FVMC morphemes in obligatory…

M. M. Elsherif; J. C. Catling – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2024
Purpose: Adults recognize words that are acquired during childhood more quickly than words acquired during adulthood. This is known as the Age of Acquisition (AoA) effect. The AoA effect, according to the integrated account, manifests in tasks necessitating greater semantic processing and in tasks with arbitrary input-output mapping. Compound…

Suhad Sonbul; Dina Abdel Salam El-Dakhs – Language Teaching Research, 2024
Very few studies have investigated second language (L2) knowledge of word parts. The present study was set to measure L2 recognition of 35 English prefixes and the factors that might predict scores. The form and meaning sections of Sasao and Webb's Word Part Levels Test were administered to 152 Arabic learners of English as a foreign language…

Kearns, Devin M.; Hiebert, Elfrieda H. – Reading Research Quarterly, 2022
The Common Core State Standards emphasize the need for U.S. students to read complex texts. As a result, the level of word complexity for primary-level texts is important, particularly the dimensions of and changes in complexity between first grade and the important third-grade high-stakes testing year. In this study, we addressed word complexity…

Qiao, Shen; Chu, Samuel Kai Wah; Shen, Xiaoai; Yeung, Susanna Siu-sze – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Morphological awareness (MA) is the awareness and ability to manipulate morphemes, the smallest units of meaning in a language. It is identified as a strong cognitive precursor of word reading and reading comprehension. The current MA instructions are limited to classroom settings and delivered by teachers or experimenters. Few studies…

Arab, Sepideh; Bijankhan, Mahmood; Eshghi, Marziye – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2022
In this study, we compared children's and adults' ability to accurately identify target words in written minimal pairs (WMPs) with graphemically similar letters while accounting for factors such as gender, similarity of the middle letter in WMPs, mono- versus dimorphemic WMPs, number of syllable, homography, and imageability. Fifty children and…

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.…
