Computerised Text Analysis: Roots and Research.
Brock, Mark N.
Computer Assisted Language Learning, v8 n2-3 p227-58 1995
Examines computerized text analysis by considering questions related to how computerized text analysis programs function, the history of computerized text analysis, and the claims of previous research on computerized text analysis. It is suggested that claims about the effectiveness of computerized text analysis as a writing aid for English-as-a-Second-Language learners are dubious. (59 references) (Author/CK)
