James Malamut – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Joint activity, or interaction, can be the basis for understanding how language use organizes both social activity as well as individual thought. These interactions can be a useful unit of analysis for studying how students use language to make sense of mathematical concepts and how students learn to appropriate specific mathematical language…

Martin Maier; Rasha Abdel Rahman – Language Learning, 2024
Linguistic categories can impact visual perception. For instance, learning that two objects have different names can enhance their discriminability. Previous studies have identified a typical pattern of categorical perception, characterized by faster discrimination of stimuli from different categories, a neural mismatch response during early…

Cheonkam Jeong – ProQuest LLC, 2024
The ongoing tonogenetic sound change in Seoul Korean involves transphonologization in phrase initial position, where the fundamental frequency (F0) of the vowel following aspirated or lenis stops becomes associated with the aspirated-lenis stop contrast (phonologization), while the originally contrastive Voice Onset Time (VOT) values merge…

Ruth Kircher; Ethan Kutlu; Mirjam Vellinga – Applied Linguistics, 2024
Language planners are increasingly aware of the importance of new speakers (individuals acquiring a language outside the home, typically later-on in life) for the revitalisation of minority languages. Yet, little is known about new speakers' activation (the process by which they become active and habitual minority language users). This article…

Seyda Özçaliskan; Ché Lucero; Susan Goldin-Meadow – Developmental Science, 2024
Blind adults display language-specificity in their packaging and ordering of events in speech. These differences affect the representation of events in "co-speech gesture"--gesturing with speech--but not in "silent gesture"--gesturing without speech. Here we examine when in development blind children begin to show adult-like…

This dissertation examined two phonological and morphological changes in Ghamdi Arabic (GA), focusing on vowel harmony and gender distinctions. By comparing Prochazka's 1988 findings with recent data from 26 participants across two age groups. Participants consisted of 20 younger speakers (10 males and 10 females, ages 20 to 35) and six older…

Karin Gegenheimer; Ellen Goldring – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
Over the past decade, reforms to principal evaluation systems have sought to incorporate formal feedback structures as a lever for principal improvement. However, we know little about the feedback that principals receive. Using statewide administrative data from Tennessee, including principals' written feedback from evaluators, we use sentiment…

Luke Peh Lu Chang; Shamas ur Rehman Toor; Leong Y. Jonathan – European Journal of Education (EJED), 2024
Interdisciplinary studies can create synergy across various fields, allowing for knowledge in a previously specialized area to support other disciplines. A number of scientific theories and laws have been applied in other domains to explain the latter's phenomenon; the adaptation of Newton's Gravitational Law for studies of bilateral trade,…

Gibbs, Alexis – Philosophical Inquiry in Education, 2021
What do we mean by the word "education"? How do others know what we mean when the term is under constant revision? Do we even need definitive answers in order to speak meaningfully of it? This paper attempts to explore the potential for education's meaningfulness via attention to its ordinary usages. In order to justify the need to be…

Bian, Lin; Cimpian, Andrei – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2021
Language can be used to express broad, unquantified generalizations about both categories (e.g., "Dogs bark") and individuals (e.g., "Daisy barks"). Although these two classes of statements are commonly assumed to arise from the same linguistic phenomenon--"genericity"--the literature to date has not offered a direct…

Mattavelli, Simone; Corneille, Olivier; Unkelbach, Christian – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Past research indicates that people judge repeated statements as more true than new ones. An experiential consequence of repetition that may underly this "truth effect" is processing fluency: Processing statements feels easier following their repetition. In three preregistered experiments (N = 684), we examined the effect of merely…

Taylor, Lynda – Language Testing, 2023
As applied linguists and language testers, we are in the business of "doing language". For many of us, language learning is a lifelong passion, and we invest similar enthusiasm in our language assessment research and testing practices. Language is also the vehicle through which we communicate that enthusiasm to others, sharing our…

Gutierrez, Rose Ann E.; Piñon, Hazel; Valmocena, Marie Trisha – New Directions for Higher Education, 2023
We conceptualize "kuwentuhan" as a methodological disruption to Western constructs of research. The purpose of this article is two-fold: first, to conceptualize and explicitly name "kwentuhan" as a research method and two, to reclaim Filipino epistemology and ontology through language. We orient "kuwentuhan" within…
