Emirhan Bingöl; Adnan Tasgin; Savas Yesilyurt – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2025
The use of technological devices, especially mobile devices, in language learning has increased the number of studies in this field. In this regard, it is essential to identify students' attitudes towards mobile-assisted language learning (MALL). Therefore, the present study aimed to translate, adapt, and validate Gönülal's (2019) attitudes…

Jonas Yassin Iversen – European Educational Research Journal, 2025
In Arabic literacy education in Europe, whether within mainstream education or in supplementary schools, instruction is a translocal endeavour at its core. The socio-historical conditions and ways of knowing embedded in traditional ways of teaching Arabic literacy are still deeply intertwined with the teaching of Arabic literacy in the diaspora.…

Jakub Bielak – Language Teaching Research, 2025
The relationship between foreign language anxiety (FLA) and foreign language enjoyment (FLE) experienced during a creative collaborative oral English-as-a-foreign-language task, and the relationships between FLE/FLA and task speech fluency were investigated. The task was performed by mid-intermediate/high-intermediate English learners (N = 43) in…

Xiaoquan Pan; Ling Lin – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2025
In the wake of network technology and with the flourishing development of online learning, online presence is beginning to be conceptualized as a pivotal determinant affecting students' cognitive and learning behaviors in the online landscapes. However, how online presence influences students' technology-enhanced language learning experience…

Andrew Jarvis – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2025
This study used the concept of desire in language learning to explore the first-year English journeys of undergraduates at an English-medium instruction (EMI) university in Hong Kong. Desire in language learning is an underexplored area in EMI research but a relevant concept for gaining a multilayered picture of the incentives and pressures of…

Beatriz González-Fernández – TESOL Quarterly: A Journal for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages and of Standard English as a Second Dialect, 2025
Second language acquisition (SLA) researchers have long searched for patterning in the development of linguistic elements (e.g., grammar and morphology). However, little attention has been given to the examination of systematicity in vocabulary acquisition, limiting our understanding about how overall vocabulary is learnt. The current study…

In'nami, Yo; Hijikata, Yuko; Koizumi, Rie – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2022
The relationship between working memory (WM) and second-language (L2) reading has been extensively examined, with mixed results. Our meta-analysis models the potential impact of under-researched variables considered to moderate this relationship. Results from 74 studies (228 correlations) showed a significant, small relationship between WM and L2…

Bardovi-Harlig, Kathleen; Comajoan-Colomé, Llorenç – Language Teaching, 2022
This article examines the relationships between second language acquisition (SLA), instructed second language acquisition (ISLA), and language teaching by examining them from the lens of the research on the acquisition and teaching of second language (L2) tense-aspect in the last 20 years (2000-2021). Review 1 examines 56 instructional effect…

Son, Myeongeun; Lee, Jongbong; Godfroid, Aline – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2022
Motivated by a series of interconnected studies on simultaneous attention to form and meaning, we revisit L2 learners' real-time processing of text by using eye-tracking as an unobtrusive method to provide concurrent data on attention allocation. Seventy-five L2 Spanish learners were instructed to attend to an assigned form in a reading passage…

Jiang, Canzhong; Wen, Xu – Asian-Pacific Journal of Second and Foreign Language Education, 2022
Second Language Acquisition (SLA) has benefited quite a lot from Construction Grammar. Most of the previous SLA researches adopting a constructionist approach have been primarily engaged in issues pertinent to the relevance of construction in SLA, the process of second language (L2) construction learning, and factors affecting L2 construction…

Theodórsdóttir, Guðrún; Eskildsen, Søren W. – Modern Language Journal, 2022
This study investigates a second language (L2) speaker's use and learning of the Icelandic auxiliary verb "aetla" (pronounced /aihtla/) in the wild. This analytic focus is motivated by the L2 speaker's (Anna) own orientation to "aetla" as a learnable. We track Anna's use of "aetla" in naturally occurring social…

Chappell, Whitney; Kanwit, Matthew – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2022
Learners must develop the ability to perceive linguistic and social meaning in their second language (L2) to interact effectively, but relatively little is known about how learners link social meaning to a single phonetic variable. Using a matched-guise test targeting coda /s/ (realized as [s] or debuccalized [h]), we explore whether L2 Spanish…

Roehr-Brackin, Karen – Language Teaching, 2022
This paper makes the case for close and approximate replications of Erlam (2005) and a conceptual replication of Roehr-Brackin and Tellier (2019). The two studies recommended for replication are informed by research on explicit and implicit knowledge, learning and teaching. They are ecologically valid classroom studies with either adolescent or…

Botes, Elouise; van der Westhuizen, Lindie; Dewaele, Jean-Marc; MacIntyre, Peter; Greiff, Samuel – Applied Linguistics, 2022
Foreign language classroom anxiety (FLCA) is a popular construct in applied linguistics research, traditionally measured with the 33-item Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS). However, recent studies have started utilizing the eight-item Short-Form FLCAS (S-FLCAS). There is therefore a need, which this study addressed in five…
