Prosodic effects in parsing early vs. late closure sentences by second language learners and native speakers

The Informative Boundary Hypothesis (IBH: [4]) claims that a prosodic boundary is interpreted relative to preceding boundaries. This study tests predictions of the IBH with Korean learners of English (L2ers) and English native speakers (L1ers) in a prosody experiment on the resolution of an Early vs. Late Closure ambiguity in spoken English sentences. A control experiment assessed and controlle...

investigating discourse markers use in spoken language between iranian tefl students and english native speakers

چارچوب نظری این مطالعه شامل یک گزارش عملکردی است و مبتنی بر تعریف شیفرین (1987) از مدل چند بعدی وابستگی مطالب است. این مطالعه 10 نشانگر گفتمان (بنابراین ، بله ، بسیار خوب ، باشه ، می دانید ، خوب ، چون، من فکر می کنم ، منظور من این است که ، در واقع) را با توجه به الگوی عملکردی مشلر(1994) در مورد نشانگرهای گفتمان طبقه بندی می کند. این مطالعه به بررسی مشخصات وقوع این عناصر در گفتار فی البداهه دانش...

Gender agreement violations modulate beta oscillatory dynamics during sentence comprehension: A comparison of second language learners and native speakers.

For native speakers, many studies suggest a link between oscillatory neural activity in the beta frequency range and syntactic processing. For late second language (L2) learners on the other hand, the extent to which the neural architecture supporting syntactic processing is similar to or different from that of native speakers is still unclear. In a series of four experiments, we used electroen...
