Siqi Ning – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Language can alter our mental conceptions of space, time, and categories. While there is compelling evidence that thought can be shaped by syntactic, morphological, and lexical features of a language, less is known about the impact of phonology on thought. This dissertation uses novel objects (alien cartoon figures) and pseudoword names in three…

Plonsky, Luke; Marsden, Emma; Crowther, Dustin; Gass, Susan M.; Spinner, Patti – Second Language Research, 2020
Judgment tasks (JTs, often called acceptability or grammaticality judgment tasks) are found extensively throughout the history of second language (L2) research.

Tammi, Tuure; Rajala, Antti – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2018
Previous research has identified numerous obstacles that counteract attempts to involve pupils in democratic processes in schools.

If English use in emerging English-speaking contexts is to be judged by local norms, as argued by WE scholars, applying exocentric norms in these contexts can be…

Wagner, Manuela; Osborn, Terry A. – Journal of Multilingual Education Research, 2010
This article focuses on how attitudes toward HLLs [heritage language learners] have changed, both with regard to program development and in learning and teaching.

Flanagan, Anna M.; Todd-Mancillas, William R. – Communication Education, 1982
Assessed the effectiveness of two methods for teaching students to write using inclusive generic pronouns. Found that both approaches were effective but that the authority approach (one forced upon an individual) produced more change in pronoun usage than the optional approach (one made by the individual by and for him/herself).

To investigate the use, or otherwise, of conversational adjustments (CAs), in a normal instructional setting, the quality of speech generated during meaning negotiation, and learner perception of the task under study, a quantitative and a qualitative analysis was carried out of language produced in a dyadic set-up in a one-way information task, a…
