Implicit Negative Feedback in Adult NS-NNS Conversation: Its Availability, Utility, and the Discourse Structure of the Information-Gap Task.
Izumi, Shinichi
Applied Language Learning, v11 n2 p289-321 2000
Examines the availability and utility of implicit negative feedback provided in task-based conversations between pre-academic, intermediate-level English-as-a- Second-Language (ESL) learners and native-speaker (NS) interlocutors. The tasks being used were the information gap tasks in which nonnative speakers (NNS) gave directions to the NS interlocutor so the NS could assemble picture pieces in ways consistent with NNS directions.
