In online environments, listening involves being able to pause or replay the recording as needed. Previous research indicates that control over the listening input could improve the measurement accuracy of listening assessment. Self-pacing also supports the second language (L2) comprehension processes of test-takers with specific learning…

Comparatively little is known about the effect of WM on young FL readers' comprehension,…

Tillema, Marion; van den Bergh, Huub; Rijlaarsdam, Gert; Sanders, Ted – Language Testing, 2013
It is the consensus that, as a result of the extra constraints placed on working memory, texts written in a second language (L2) are usually of lower quality than texts written in the first language (L1) by the same writer. However, no method is currently available for quantifying the quality difference between L1 and L2 texts. In the present…
