Mutahar Qassem – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
This article reports on an empirical study on cognitive processes [i.e. (dis) fluency, temporal management of the translation process, and revision] and their relationship with fluency and adequacy. Based on Jakobsen and Schou's (1999) computational model of human translation, the author utilizes keylogging data retrieved from a Translog-II-based…

Andrea L. Ochoa; Logan McDermott; Rebecca A. Cruz – Bilingual Research Journal, 2024
The "Lau v. Nichols" ruling shows the importance of tailoring programs for local multilingual learners. We used longitudinal data from one school district in California to assess the relationship between attending a school with a language support program and English language arts (ELA) achievement. We found that students labeled an…

Marie Alina Yeo; Jonathan Mark Newton – TESOL Journal, 2025
While it is widely accepted that language teachers require knowledge of second language acquisition (SLA) (Richards, 2010), what about content teachers, who are increasingly required to help develop their learners' academic language proficiency? How much do they need to know about SLA theories and how can they acquire such knowledge and expertise?…

Hilviu, Dize; Frau, Federico; Bosco, Francesca M.; Marini, Andrea; Gabbatore, Ilaria – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2023
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition affecting social and communicative skills, including narrative ability, namely the description of real-life or fictive accounts of temporally and causally related events. With this study, we aimed to determine whether a communicative-pragmatic training, i.e., the version for…

Jiang, Michael Yi-Chao; Jong, Morris Siu-Yung; Lau, Wilfred Wing-Fat; Chai, Ching-Sing; Wu, Na – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: While automatic speech recognition (ASR) is increasingly used for commercial purposes, its influence on the learners' linguistic performance in terms of oral complexity, accuracy and fluency was under-explored. To date, few studies have been conducted to investigate how the dictation ASR technology could be incorporated into language…

Tavakoli, Parvaneh; Kendon, Gill; Mazhurnaya, Svetlana; Ziomek, Anna – Language Testing, 2023
The main aim of this study was to investigate how oral fluency is assessed across different levels of proficiency in the Test of English for Educational Purposes (TEEP). Working with data from 56 test-takers performing a monologic task at a range of proficiency levels (equivalent to approximately levels 5.0, 5.5, 6.5, and 7.5 in the IELTS scoring…

Nivja H. de Jong – Language Teaching Research Quarterly, 2023
In current research into second language (L2) speaking, aspects of fluency are measured as static constructs. Averaged over a complete speaking performance, for instance, syllables per minute is calculated. Similarly, the number of pauses is calculated per minute, averaged over a complete speaking task. This paper argues, however, that we need to…

Paromita Deb; Anupam Basu – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2024
The study explored the role of verbal fluency in determining reading and comprehension skills in Bengali among 10-year old typically developing Bengali children. Robust correlations were found between semantic fluency and word reading (0.63) as well as semantic fluency and comprehension (0.70). Good correlation was found between letter fluency and…

Zhiyong Dai; Goachagorn Thipatdee; Metcha Metjiranont – Journal of Education and Learning, 2024
This research aimed to: (1) develop a task-based Chinese speaking (TBCS) instructional model to enhance the Chinese speaking skills of beginner-level Thai learners studying Chinese as a foreign language (CFL), (2) implement the developed TBCS instructional model with beginner-level Thai CFL learners for refinement, and (3) evaluate the suitability…

Saeid Sarabi Asl; Mojgan Rashtchi; Ghafour Rezaie – Asian-Pacific Journal of Second and Foreign Language Education, 2024
Dynamic assessment has been proven to effectively promote EFL learners' speaking proficiency, but its implementation in teaching speaking skills has been limited. One of the main reasons is that, thus far, very few studies have scrutinized the impacts of its two main models, interactionist and interventionist, on the speaking sub-skills of EFL…

Mohammad Naghavian – Modern Language Journal, 2024
Second language (L2) learners hold different learning beliefs that influence their interpretation of classroom experiences and their L2 learning process. Developing a thorough understanding of such beliefs is therefore imperative. This article reports the representations of Iranian English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) learners' beliefs about L2…

Brundage, Shelley B.; Bernstein Ratner, Nan – Topics in Language Disorders, 2022
Purpose: Although commonly defined as a speech disorder, stuttering interacts with the language production system in important ways. Our purpose is to summarize research findings on linguistic variables that influence stuttering assessment and treatment. Method and Results: Numerous topics are summarized. First, we review research that has…

Bose, Arpita; Patra, Abhijeet; Antoniou, Georgia Eleftheria; Stickland, Rachael C.; Belke, Eva – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Verbal fluency tasks are routinely used in clinical assessment and research studies of aphasia. People with aphasia produce fewer items in verbal fluency tasks. It remains unclear if their output is limited solely by their lexical difficulties and/or has a basis in their executive control abilities. Recent research has illustrated that…

Johnson, Mark D.; Abdi Tabari, Mahmoud – Applied Linguistics, 2022
Increased second language acquisition (SLA) research interest in the effect of planning on subsequent L2 oral production has typically examined the effect of planning on the syntactic complexity, accuracy, lexical complexity, and/or fluency (CALF) of L2 production. However, the results of research in this domain are inconclusive. This study, a…
