Uptake As Language Awareness.
Ellis, Rod
Language Awareness, v4 n3 p147-60 1995
Investigates the sincerity and validity of uptake as a measure of language learning by comparing the words students report they have learned after completing a listening task with the words they score correctly on a translation test. Results indicate that whereas uptake may have construct validity, its concurrent validity is uncertain. (16 references) (Author/CK)
