Assessing Digital Interactional Competence for Second‐Language and First‐Language Chinese Speakers: Effects of Proficiency, Mode, and Setting

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Measurement of interactional competence (IC) has attracted increasing interest in language assessment research. One key question is whether proficiency sufficiently accounts for IC, making separate IC assessment unnecessary. This study examines the IC–proficiency relationship using a test that assesses Chinese speakers’ ability to manage ...

Sixty‐two native (L1) Mandarin speakers and 72 L1 Korean learners of Mandarin participated in a picture ...

Second Language Interactional Competence in Roleplay: Comparing Generative Artificial Intelligence and Human Interlocutors

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the potential of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) as an alternative to human interlocutors for assessing interactional competence (IC) in a second language (L2). Thirty L2 English speakers completed a 6‐item roleplay task designed to elicit refusals of requests, invitations, and offers, interacting with both a ...

The Role of Age and Instruction in Children's Learning of Vocabulary and Grammar

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract It is generally assumed that children and adults learn language through fundamentally different mechanisms: Children predominantly rely on implicit learning, and adults utilize more explicit strategies (Lichtman, 2016). However, little is known about when and how learners begin to benefit from explicit instruction over the course of language ...
