open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This replication study examines feedback timing in vocational language learners and verifies the hypothesis that the advantage of immediate over delayed feedback found in the original study (Li, Zhu, & Ellis, 2016) is due to practice opportunities in immediate feedback.

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

open access: yesLanguage 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 ...

Mandarin Relative Clause Production by Second Language Learners: Subject–Object Asymmetry and Individual Differences

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated which type of Mandarin Chinese relative clause (RC)—subject‐extracted relative clause (SRC) or object‐extracted relative clause (ORC)—imposes greater processing demands on second language (L2) learners’ production. 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

open access: yesLanguage 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 ...
