Lyster, Roy; Ranta, Leila – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2013

Yang, Yingli; Lyster, Roy – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2010
Conducted in English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) classrooms at the university level in China, this quasi-experimental study compared the effects of three different corrective feedback treatments on 72 Chinese learners' use of regular and irregular English past tense. Three classes were randomly assigned to a prompt group, a recast group, or a…

Lyster, Roy – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2004
Four teachers and their eight classes of 179 fifth-grade (10-11-year-old) students participated in this quasi-experimental classroom study, which investigated the effects of form-focused instruction (FFI) and corrective feedback on immersion students' ability to accurately assign grammatical gender in French. The FFI treatment, designed to draw…

Lyster, Roy – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 1998
Examines aspects of communicative classroom discourse that may affect the potential of recasts to be noticed as negative evidence by young second-language learners. The database comprises transcripts of over 18 hours of interaction recorded during 27 lessons in four immersion classrooms at the primary level. (Author/JL)
