From a Learner's Perspective: Tracing L2 Interactional Competence Development in Video‐Mediated Task‐Based Interactions

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In task‐based language learning, learners have to deal with the challenge of moving the task and the talk concurrently forward. In doing so, they develop sets of task‐relevant, interactional, and multimodal resources. In this study we use multimodal longitudinal conversation analysis to investigate one learner's L2 interactional competence ...

Does ulnar curvature covary with locomotion and substrate use in cercopithecids?

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates ulnar curvature in cercopithecids in relation to locomotor behaviors, introducing an analysis of anteroposterior and mediolateral curvature, using geometric morphometric on 167 specimens (23 species). Although the two curvatures distinguish arboreal and terrestrial quadrupeds, their moderate covariation suggests that they ...
