The Cross‐Linguistic Transfer of Self‐Regulated Learning Strategy Use From L1 to L2: The Moderating Role of L2 Learning Motivation and Exposure

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Self‐regulated learning (SRL) as a key predictor of language learning has been widely studied, but few studies have examined it from a cross‐linguistic perspective. The present study investigated whether first language (L1) SRL strategy use transfers to second language (L2) SRL strategy use and the conditions under which this transfer occurs ...

A Multivariate Method for Dynamic System Analysis: Multivariate Detrended Fluctuation Analysis Using Generalized Variance

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Fractal fluctuations are a core concept for inquiries into human behavior and cognition from a dynamic systems perspective. Here, we present a generalized variance method for multivariate detrended fluctuation analysis (mvDFA). The advantage of this extension is that it can be applied to multivariate time series and considers intercorrelation ...

15-month-old infants fast map words but not representational gestures of multimodal labels

Frontiers in Psychology, 2012
This study investigated whether 15-month-old infants fast map multimodal labels, and, when given the choice of two modalities, whether they preferentially fast map one better than the other.

Overreliance on Orthographic Similarity in L2‐Japanese Conceptual Processing by L1‐Chinese Learners

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Orthographic and phonological similarities between first (L1) and second (L2) languages can facilitate L2 processing. Particularly, L1‐Chinese learners of L2‐Japanese can benefit from the shared morphosyllabic Chinese characters (Japanese kanji/Chinese hanzi) because of their similar orthographies.

The Wire Is Not the Territory: Understanding Representational Drift in Olfaction With Dynamical Systems Theory

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Representational drift is a phenomenon of increasing interest in the cognitive and neural sciences. While investigations are ongoing for other sensory cortices, recent research has demonstrated the pervasiveness in which it occurs in the piriform cortex for olfaction.

Early developmental changes in the timing of turn-taking: A longitudinal study of mother-infant interaction

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
To accomplish a smooth transition in conversation from one speaker to the next, a tight coordination of interaction between speakers is required. Recent studies of adult conversation suggest that this close timing of interaction may well be a universal ...

Co‐Authorship in Applied Linguistics Research: Patterns and Trends, 1991–2023

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been 18 years since Greene's featured article in Nature, The demise of the lone author. In that time, there have been enormous shifts in how educational research has been conducted, with a move towards greater teamworking, anecdotally evident from author bylines in published documents. This bibliometric study investigates patterns of co‐

Abduction and Deduction in Dynamical Cognitive Science

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This paper reviews the recent history of a subset of research in dynamical cognitive science, in particular that subset that allies itself with the sciences of complexity and casts cognitive systems as interaction dominant, noncomputational, and nonmodular. I look at this history in the light of C.S.

Exome-wide analysis implicates rare protein-altering variants in human handedness

Nature Communications
Handedness is a manifestation of brain hemispheric specialization. Left-handedness occurs at increased rates in neurodevelopmental disorders. Genome-wide association studies have identified common genetic effects on handedness or brain asymmetry, which ...

Bridging the Gap Between L1 and L2: Enhanced Emotional Vocabulary Through Elaborative Processing in Spanish‐Speaking English Language Learners

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Foreign languages are often learnt in formal and disembodied environments which may limit the emotional resonance of their vocabulary and their pragmatic usage in real‐life communication. In a context of English as a foreign language (EFL), this study examines whether elaborative processing as a teaching strategy leads to changes in the ...
