Zhou, Wei; Shu, Hua; Miller, Kevin; Yan, Ming – Journal of Research in Reading, 2018
Background: Disruptions of reading processes due to text substitutions can measure how readers use lexical information. Methods: With eye-movement recording, children and adults viewed sentences with either identical, orthographically similar, homophonic or unrelated substitutions of the first characters in target words. To the extent that readers…

Benham, Sara; Goffman, Lisa; Schweickert, Richard – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: Network science has been a valuable tool in language research for investigating relationships between complex linguistic elements but has not yet been applied to sound sequencing in production. In the present work, we used standard error-based accuracy and articulatory kinematic approaches as well as novel measures from network science to…

Soltanpour, Fatemeh; Valizadeh, Mohammadreza – Advances in Language and Literary Studies, 2018
Based on the literature, revision requirement (i.e., when students rewrite their whole text based on the teacher feedback) can perhaps be a necessary intermediate step towards the development of written accuracy because learners have more time to think about and process the corrections; however, some state drawing learner's attention can be…

Hascoët, Marine; Pansu, Pascal; Bouffard, Thèrèse; Leroy, Nadia – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2018
When children perceive a conditional support, they only feel loved and encouraged for their ability to meet others' standards. This may lead them to develop high sensitivity to errors and anxiety and low perception of competence. In this study, we examined the relationship between the perceived conditional support from teacher and children's…

Starns, Jeffrey J.; Ma, Qiuli – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
The two-high-threshold (2HT) model of recognition memory assumes that people make memory errors because they fail to retrieve information from memory and make a guess, whereas the continuous unequal-variance (UV) model and the low-threshold (LT) model assume that people make memory errors because they retrieve misleading information from memory.…

Sinharay, Sandip – Grantee Submission, 2018
Tatsuoka (1984) suggested several extended caution indices and their standardized versions that have been used as person-fit statistics by researchers such as Drasgow, Levine, and McLaughlin (1987), Glas and Meijer (2003), and Molenaar and Hoijtink (1990). However, these indices are only defined for tests with dichotomous items. This paper extends…

Cayton-Hodges, Gabrielle A.; Fife, James – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2018
Once a novelty, Digitally-Based Assessments (DBA) have become commonplace in the USA. With mathematics, it is often a necessity to include items that require the student to input a mathematical formula, equation, or expression. Many of these responses, especially in the upper grades, cannot be input with a standard keyboard, but must use some type…

Alenazi, Yasir; Chen, Shen; Picard, Michelle; Hunt, Jaime W. – International TESOL Journal, 2021
The English language plays a significant role in Saudi Arabia at the local and international levels. Spelling errors, as one of the challenging elements in writing confronted by Saudi learners of English, have a negative effect on the quality of their written translation products (Ababneh, 2019). Therefore, more analytical studies are needed to…

Kawar, Khaloob – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Diagnoses, assessments, and treatments, as well as social and language interventions, can be effective in identifying and interpreting specific linguistic features that present special challenges to the language abilities of individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing (DHH). This article reports on a study analyzing complex sentences and…

Xiao, Wenqi; Park, Moonyoung – International Journal of Computer-Assisted Language Learning and Teaching, 2021
With the advancement of automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology, ASR-based pronunciation assessment can diagnose learners' pronunciation problems. Meanwhile, ASR-based pronunciation training allows more opportunities for pronunciation practice. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of ASR technology in diagnosing English…

Rzepka, Nathalie; Müller, Hans-Georg; Simbeck, Katharina – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
The ability to spell correctly is a fundamental skill for participating in society and engaging in professional work. In the German language, the capitalization of nouns and proper names presents major difficulties for both native and nonnative learners, since the definition of what is a noun varies according to one's linguistic perspective. In…

Chong, Sin Wang – Language Education & Assessment, 2019
In the past decade (2007-2017), research on written corrective feedback (WCF) has been proliferating in English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) and English-as-a-Foreign-Language (EFL) contexts, and new developments in this field of research are evident. To synthesize the latest advancement in WCF research, a systematic review of recent literature on…
