Pauline Frizelle; Ana Buckley; Tricia Biancone; Anna Ceroni; Darren Dahly; Paul Fletcher; Dorothy V. M. Bishop; Cristina McKean – Journal of Child Language, 2024
This study reports on the feasibility of using the Test of Complex Syntax- Electronic (TECS-E), as a self-directed app, to measure sentence comprehension in children aged 4 to 5 ½ years old; how testing apps might be adapted for effective independent use; and agreement levels between face-to-face supported computerized and independent computerized…

Mahowald, Kyle; Kachergis, George; Frank, Michael C. – First Language, 2020
Ambridge calls for exemplar-based accounts of language acquisition. Do modern neural networks such as transformers or word2vec -- which have been extremely successful in modern natural language processing (NLP) applications -- count? Although these models often have ample parametric complexity to store exemplars from their training data, they also…

Valentina Albano; Donatella Firmani; Luigi Laura; Jerin George Mathew; Anna Lucia Paoletti; Irene Torrente – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2023
Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) are widely used in educational assessments and professional certification exams. Managing large repositories of MCQs, however, poses several challenges due to the high volume of questions and the need to maintain their quality and relevance over time. One of these challenges is the presence of questions that…

Andrew Potter; Mitchell Shortt; Maria Goldshtein; Rod D. Roscoe – Grantee Submission, 2025
Broadly defined, academic language (AL) is a set of lexical-grammatical norms and registers commonly used in educational and academic discourse. Mastery of academic language in writing is an important aspect of writing instruction and assessment. The purpose of this study was to use Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools to examine the extent to…

Mengliyev, Bakhtiyor; Shahabitdinova, Shohida; Khamroeva, Shahlo; Gulyamova, Shakhnoza; Botirova, Adiba – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2021
This article is dedicated to the issue of morphological analysis and synthesis of word forms in a linguistic analyzer, which is a significant feature of corpus linguistics. The article discourses in detail the morphological analysis, the creation of artificial language, grammar and analyzer, the general scheme of the analysis program that…

Corlatescu, Dragos-Georgian; Dascalu, Mihai; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Reading comprehension is key to knowledge acquisition and to reinforcing memory for previous information. While reading, a mental representation is constructed in the reader's mind. The mental model comprises the words in the text, the relations between the words, and inferences linking to concepts in prior knowledge. The automated model of…

Takshak Desai – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Reading comprehension can be analyzed from three points of view: Semantics, Assessment, and Cognition. Here, Semantics refers to the task of identifying discourse relations in text. Assessment involves utilizing these relations to obtain meaningful question-answer pairs. Cognition means categorizing questions according to their difficulty or…

Sudatip Prapunta – MEXTESOL Journal, 2025
This research study aims to explore students' perceptions and reflections on the effectiveness of project-based learning (PBL) in a Thai-English translation course in the EFL context. The participants of this study included forty-nine students who were enrolled in the Thai-English translation course. The participants were asked to produce a…

Taghizadeh, Masoomeh – Asian-Pacific Journal of Second and Foreign Language Education, 2023
Within the last two decades, researchers have begun to investigate how L2 learners process syntactic, morpho-syntactic, and lexical information during the comprehension of L2 sentences. The present study aimed to add to research by investigating how L1 influences L2 processing of sentences indicating plurality in constructions involving numerals.…

Noureldin Mohamed Abdelaal – Australian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2023
Translators employ an array of tools to streamline the translation process, ensuring precision and coherence. The necessity of these tools is particularly pronounced when tackling authentic materials, such as texts from the United Nations (UN). Among these tools, corpora stand out as a pivotal resource. In light of this, this study undertook a…

Nicula, Bogdan; Dascalu, Mihai; Newton, Natalie N.; Orcutt, Ellen; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Learning to paraphrase supports both writing ability and reading comprehension, particularly for less skilled learners. As such, educational tools that integrate automated evaluations of paraphrases can be used to provide timely feedback to enhance learner paraphrasing skills more efficiently and effectively. Paraphrase identification is a popular…

Jennifer Hu – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Language is one of the hallmarks of intelligence, demanding explanation in a theory of human cognition. However, language presents unique practical challenges for quantitative empirical research, making many linguistic theories difficult to test at naturalistic scales. Artificial neural network language models (LMs) provide a new tool for studying…

Abdulaal, Mohammad Awad Al-Dawoody – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2022
This research study aims at drawing a comparison between some internet emerging applications used for machine translation (MT) and a human translation (HT) to two of Alphonse Daudet's short stories: "The Siege of Berlin" and "The Bad Zouave." The automatic translation has been carried out by four MT online applications (i.e.…

Eun Seon Chung – Language Learning & Technology, 2024
While previous investigations on online machine translation (MT) in language learning have analyzed how second language (L2) learners use and post-edit MT output, no study as of yet has investigated how the learners process MT errors and what factors affect this process using response and reading times. The present study thus investigates L2…

Nittrouer, Susan; Lowenstein, Joanna H. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: General language abilities of children with cochlear implants have been thoroughly investigated, especially at young ages, but far less is known about how well they process language in real-world settings, especially in higher grades. This study addressed this gap in knowledge by examining recognition of sentences with complex syntactic…
