Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract Do immersion and nonimmersion learners’ English grammaticality judgment test (GJT) scores reflect the same underlying processes in language learning? Drawing on data from Chen and Hartshorne's (2021) study, we argue that they do not. Using generalized additive mixed models (GAMMs), we found that age of onset was the strongest predictor of GJT ...

On epistemic conceptions of meaning: use, meaning and normativity [PDF]
, 2009 Many philosophers hold that for an expression to possess meaning is for there to norms governing its use. By combining this with a further idea, namely that the relevant norms are epistemic, one arrives at an epistemic conception of meaning (EM). In this

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract Input variability (i.e., varied experience with different grammar exemplars; “[talk/think/rant/wonder] about [god/bicycles/dogs]”) can improve generalization (i.e., “[Verb] about [Noun]”) and enhance learning. Controlled experiments show that input variability benefits children's generalization and extension of linguistic information from ...

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract This study explores how statistical properties of verb–preposition and verb–particle constructions (VPCs) and their interplay in the target language shape second language (L2) production across L2 proficiency levels. We compared phrasal frequency and three contingency measures—mutual information (MI), forward delta P (ΔP), and backward ΔP—of ...

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract There has been an increasing interest in better understanding the role of embodied resources in second language (L2) assessment contexts and thus expanding the construct of interactional competence (IC). However, multimodal analysis has yet to break new grounds in video‐mediated interactions in digital assessment environments.

Error detection is not necessary for representation
Mind &Language, EarlyView.Some philosophers have recently proposed an error detection condition (EDC) for representation, such that for R$$ R $$ to be a representation for system S$$ S $$, S$$ S $$ must be capable of detecting errors in tokenings of R$$ R $$. We argue that this condition is unmotivated, and that it is too strong. We show that theories of representation that are
