Socioeconomic Account of Reading Abilities in Learning Chinese as a First Language and English as a Second Language

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract The study examined the mediation model of socioeconomic status (SES) and executive function (EF) on reading abilities in Chinese (as first language, L1) and English (as second language, L2) in 260 native Cantonese‐speaking students (146 boys) from Hong Kong local primary schools with the mean age at 111.3 months (range = 98–132 months).

Revisiting Blocking Effects in Second Language Learning: A Close Replication of Ellis and Sagarra (2010b)

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract We closely replicated Ellis and Sagarra (2010b), a seminal study that demonstrated clear effects of blocking in second language (L2) learning. In that study, English‐speaking learners completed different types of pretraining about Latin temporal expressions (adverbs, verbs, none) to investigate how knowledge about specific cues influenced L2 ...

Error Correction Learning of Second Language Verbal Morphology: Associating Imperfect Contingencies in Naturalistic Frequency Distributions

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate what is learned from exposure to usage in verbal morphology using an error correction mechanism within an associative learning framework. We computationally simulated how second language (L2) learners would respond to naturalistic input of aspectual usage, characterized by “imperfect contingencies,” given two types of ...

Head Gestures Do Not Serve as Precursors of Prosodic Focus Marking in the Second Language as They Do in the First Language

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Research shows that children use head gestures to mark discourse focus before developing the required prosodic cues in their first language (L1), and their gestures affect the prosodic parameters of their speech. We investigated whether head gestures also act as precursors and bootstrappers of prosodic focus marking in second language (L2 ...
