Toward Assessing Interlanguage Performance: The Relationship between Selected Errors, Learners' Characteristics, and Learners' Explanations

Cohen, Andrew D.; Robbins, Margaret

Language Learning, 26, 1, 45-66, Jun 76

A study of certain aspects of second language learning among three university students, all in an advanced ESL class at UCLA. An error analysis of written verb forms was undertaken. An examination of correction revealed that it was neither systematic nor enlightened enough to actually influence error production. (Author/RM)
