Title
Input and Evidence: The raw material of second language acquisition
Susanne Elizabeth Carroll
Input and Evidence: the raw material of second language acquisition is an empirical and theoretical treatment of one of the essential components of SLA: the input to language learning mechanisms. It reviews and adds to the empirical studies showing that negative evidence (correction, feedback,… read more[Language Acquisition and Language Disorders, 25] 2001. xviii, 461 pp.
2015 Segmental targets versus lexical interference: Production of second-language targets on first exposure and the result of minimal training Transfer Effects in Multilingual Language Development, Peukert, Hagen (ed.), pp. 53–86 | Article
This chapter reports on a study of Anglophone adults exposed to German for the first time. Production data are examined and compared to the stimuli participants were exposed to. Data provide clear evidence of lexical influences on speech behaviour; L1 words interfere in production and provide a… read more
2012 First exposure learners make use of top-down lexical knowledge when learning words Multilingual Individuals and Multilingual Societies, Braunmüller, Kurt and Christoph Gabriel (eds.), pp. 23–46 | Article
Learning another language requires learning a new lexicon. Current second language acquisition theories make different predictions about the relative importance of L2 experience and L1 knowledge when learning new words. In a study of first exposure learners, clear effects of knowledge of L1 words… read more
2011 ‘Acquisition’ in grammatical development: What does word order tell us? The Development of Grammar: Language acquisition and diachronic change, Rinke, Esther and Tanja Kupisch (eds.), pp. 19–46 | Article
Jürgen M. Meisel has long championed parameter-setting as an account of the development of word order in monolingual and bilingual first language acquisition. For second language learners, he has proposed that development is to be explained by induction but does not provide detail as to what the… read more
2010 Explaining how learners extract ‘formulae’ from L2 input The Processing of Input in Second Language Acquisition / Le traitement de l'input dans l'acquisition des langues étrangères, Véronique, Georges Daniel (ed.), pp. 229–250 | Article
Studies of L2 production have shown that both children and adult learners make use of ‘formulae’, putatively ‘unanalysed’ sequences of words. In this paper I discuss how formulae may arise in L2 acquisition by processes of segmentation. Carroll and MacDonald (Ms. 2009), Carroll et al. (2009) show… read more
2002 I-learning EUROSLA Yearbook: Volume 2 (2002), Foster-Cohen, Susan H., Tanja Ruthenberg and Marie Louise Poschen (eds.), pp. 7–28 | Article
This paper outlines the Autonomous Induction Theory, a theory of learning which is compatible with the hypothesis that Universal Grammar constrains the nature of natural languages. Based on Jackendoff’s architecture of the language faculty and Representational Modularity Hypothesis, it defines a… read more
1995 The irrelevance of verbal feedback to language learning The Current State of Interlanguage: Studies in honor of William E. Rutherford, Eubank, Lynn, Larry Selinker and Michael Sharwood Smith (eds.), pp. 73–88 | Article
