Direct linkGe, Haoyan; Chen, Aoju; Yip, Virginia – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
This study investigates L2 comprehension of focus-to-accentuation mapping in English sentences with focus particle "only" by advanced learners of English whose L1 was either Cantonese or Dutch. Two experiments were conducted to examine (a) whether L2 learners could map accentuation to focus; and (b) whether they could perceive…

Dhaene, Sara; Woumans, Evy – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2023
Previous research identified that studying texts in a second language (L2) as opposed to the first (L1) results in substantially weaker recall. We hypothesized that use of advance organizers (AOs) might attenuate this L2 recall cost by supporting L2 users in the construction of more solid memory representations. One hundred Dutch-English…

Kida, Shusaku; Barcroft, Joe – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2018
The type of processing-resource allocation (TOPRA) model predicts that increasing one type of processing (semantic, structural, or mapping oriented) can decrease other types of processing and their learning counterparts. This study examined how semantic and structural tasks affect the mapping component of second language (L2) vocabulary learning.…

Kim, Jeong-eun; Cho, Yejin; Cho, Youngsun; Hong, Yeonjung; Kim, Seohyun; Nam, Hosung – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2020
This study examines the effects of asymmetrical mappings of L2 sounds to L1 sounds on real-time processing of L2 phonology. L1-Korean participants completed a self-paced listening (SPL) task paired with a picture verification (PV) task, in which an English sentence was presented word by word along with a picture that matched or mismatched the…

Leung, Janny H. C.; Williams, John N. – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2014
We report three experiments that explore the effect of prior linguistic knowledge on implicit language learning. Native speakers of English from the United Kingdom and native speakers of Cantonese from Hong Kong participated in experiments that involved different learning materials. In Experiment 1, both participant groups showed evidence of…

O'Grady, William; Kwak, Hye-Young; Lee, On-Soon; Lee, Miseon – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2011
It is widely recognized that the processor has a key role to play in creating and strengthening the mapping between form and meaning that is integral to language use. Adopting an emergentist approach to heritage language acquisition, the current study considers the extent to which the operation of the processor can contribute to an account of what…
