Lexical Input Processing and Vocabulary Learning
Joe Barcroft
This book focuses on theory, research, and practice related to lexical input processing (lex-IP), an exciting field exploring how learners allocate their limited processing resources when exposed to words and lexical phrases in the input. Unit 1 specifies parameters of lex-IP research among other… read more[Language Learning & Language Teaching, 43] 2015. xi, 194 pp.
L2 Vocabulary: The interface between learning and representation
Edited by Joe Barcroft and Gretchen L. Sunderman
Special issue of The Mental Lexicon 3:3 (2008) 177 pp.
2021 Chapter 7. Multilevel input processing: Emerging developments and future challenges Research on Second Language Processing and Processing Instruction: Studies in honor of Bill VanPatten, Leeser, Michael J., Gregory D. Keating and Wynne Wong (eds.), pp. 201–232 | Chapter
Research on input processing (IP) to date has focused largely on sentences and acquisition of morphosyntax. Other research has addressed IP at the lexical level for different aspects of vocabulary acquisition. This chapter clarifies how understanding multilevel IP can improve our understanding… read more
2013 Chapter 6. Input-based incremental vocabulary instruction for the L2 classroom Innovative Research and Practices in Second Language Acquisition and Bilingualism, Schwieter, John W. (ed.), pp. 107–138 | Article
This chapter reviews theoretical and research foundations of input-based incremental (IBI) vocabulary instruction (Barcroft 2004a, 2005, 2012) and exhibits how the IBI approach can be used to promote effective second language (L2) vocabulary instruction. It first considers key concepts (such as… read more
2011 Chapter 3. Some costs of fooling Mother Nature: A priming study on the Keyword Method and the quality of developing L2 lexical representations Applying priming methods to L2 learning, teaching and research: Insights from Psycholinguistics, Trofimovich, Pavel and Kim McDonough (eds.), pp. 49–72 | Article
This study compared the effects of the Keyword Method and rote rehearsal on the quality of developing second language (L2) lexical representations. We assessed accuracy and latency of English-to-Spanish translations provided by English-speaking absolute beginning learners of Spanish after each of… read more
2008 Introduction: Bringing together the how and the what of the bilingual mental lexicon L2 Vocabulary: The interface between learning and representation, Barcroft, Joe and Gretchen L. Sunderman (eds.), pp. 279–288 | Article
2008 Learning new words for objects and nonobjects: Theoretical and methodological implications L2 Vocabulary: The interface between learning and representation, Barcroft, Joe and Gretchen L. Sunderman (eds.), pp. 325–348 | Article
In this study we compared second language (L2) vocabulary learning with real objects versus nonobjects as referents (a) to test the effects of increased semantic processing (when learning nonobjects) and (b) to assess the viability of using L2 vocabulary learning with nonobjects (which forces… read more
