Lee, Jiyong – Applied Linguistics, 2019
Relationships among task characteristics, L2 performance, and interlanguage development are of interest both for SLA research and the design of syllabuses and language teaching materials. Complexity has been identified as a promising, but methodologically problematic, task design feature. A study was conducted of the effects of progressive…

Pallotti, Gabriele – Applied Linguistics, 2016
The article presents a typology of statements that can be made about discourse data. The classification is based on two parameters: level of generality and level of interpretation. Each of these is operationalized into three discrete levels, to yield a nine-cell table containing types of statements going from the presentation of a single case to…

Nakane, Ikuko – Applied Linguistics, 2007
At first glance, communicating a suspect's rights in police interviews appears to be a straightforward task. However, it is more complex than it appears.

De Ridder, Isabelle; Vangehuchten, Lieve; Gomez, Marta Sesena – Applied Linguistics, 2007
In general terms automaticity could be defined as the subconscious condition wherein "we perform a complex series of tasks very quickly and efficiently, without having to think about the various components and subcomponents of action involved" (DeKeyser 2001: 125). For language learning, Segalowitz (2003) characterised automaticity as a…

Mackey, Alison – Applied Linguistics, 2006
Second language acquisition researchers have claimed that feedback provided during conversational interaction facilitates second language (L2) acquisition. A number of experimental studies have supported this claim, connecting interactional feedback with L2 development. Researchers have suggested that interactional feedback is associated with L2…
