Prediction in Second Language Processing and Learning
Edited by Edith Kaan and Theres Grüter
There is ample evidence that language users, including second-language (L2) users, can predict upcoming information during listening and reading. Yet it is still unclear when, how, and why language users engage in prediction, and what the relation is between prediction and learning. This volume… read more[Bilingual Processing and Acquisition, 12] 2021. xiii, 234 pp.
Input and Experience in Bilingual Development
Edited by Theres Grüter and Johanne Paradis
Children acquiring two languages, either simultaneously or sequentially, have more variation in their linguistic input than their monolingual peers. Understanding the nature and consequences of this variability has been the focus of much recent research on childhood bilingualism. This volume… read more[Trends in Language Acquisition Research, 13] 2014. ix, 204 pp.
2026 The effect of real-world knowledge on the L2 acquisition of English inverse scope New Frontiers and Connections in Second Language Acquisition: Selected Proceedings of the 17th Generative Approaches to Second Language Acquisition (GASLA-17) Conference, Ionin, Tania and Silvina Montrul (eds.), pp. 74–100 | Chapter
English doubly-quantified sentences such as A boy climbed every tree allow both a surface reading (one particular boy climbed every tree) and an inverse reading (every tree was climbed by a (different) boy); the latter reading, by contrast, is not allowed in Mandarin analogues and has repeatedly… read more
2025 Facilitative use of classifiers in heritage Vietnamese Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism 15:6, pp. 812–842 | Article
Recent research has highlighted the value of investigating the online language processing of heritage speakers (HS) as a means of accessing their implicit language knowledge (Montrul, 2023). While studies have shown that Spanish and Polish HS use grammatical gender cues to predict upcoming nouns… read more
2021 Chapter 10. Forcing prediction increases priming and adaptation in second language production Prediction in Second Language Processing and Learning, Kaan, Edith and Theres Grüter (eds.), pp. 207–232 | Chapter
This paper presents a priming experiment with Korean learners of English designed to test the hypothesis that engagement in prediction and the consequent computation of prediction error will lead to increased priming and adaptation. Participants in the guessing-game condition, who had to predict… read more
2021 Chapter 1. Prediction in second language processing and learning: Advances and directions Prediction in Second Language Processing and Learning, Kaan, Edith and Theres Grüter (eds.), pp. 1–24 | Chapter
There is ample evidence that language users, including second language (L2) speakers, can predict upcoming information during listening and reading. Yet it is still unclear when, how, and why language users engage in prediction, and what the relation is between prediction and learning. This… read more
2017 Coreference and discourse coherence in L2: The roles of grammatical aspect and referential form Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism 7:2, pp. 199–229 | Article
Discourse-level factors, such as event structure and the form of referential expressions, play an important role in native speakers’ referential processing. This paper presents an experiment with Japanese- and Korean-speaking learners of English, investigating the extent to which discourse-level… read more
2014 Language exposure and online processing efficiency in bilingual development: Relative versus absolute measures Input and Experience in Bilingual Development, Grüter, Theres and Johanne Paradis (eds.), pp. 15–36 | Article
This chapter summarizes what we know so far about the development of online processing skill in young bilingual children, with a focus on the relation between individual differences in language exposure and processing skill. We discuss evidence from studies with Spanish-English bilingual children… read more
