The encyclopedia of applied linguistics
This ground-breaking reference, available online or as a 10-volume print set, is a comprehensive resource covering the highly diverse field of applied linguistics. It brings together historic and emerging areas of research within applied linguistics. The 10 volumes combine individual entries ranging from 1,500 to 4,000 words, with longer, essay-style contributions giving a detailed overview of key developments and ideas. Covers 31 key areas of th…

Field Independence/Dependence in Second-Language Acquisition Research
Field independence/dependence (FI/D) has been hypothesized to be an important variable in second-language acquisition (SLA); however, interpretations of empirical research on the role of FI/D vary. This paper establishes the significance of FI/D-SLA research by reexamining the construct of FI/D and its measurement and clarifying its role in language testing and good language-learner theories
The Discourse of Computer-Assisted Language Learning: Toward a Context for Descriptive Research
Understanding how the speed, power, and flexibility of computers can facilitate second language acquisition is an intriguing challenge faced by instructors, researchers, and theorists. Progress in this area, however, does not appear to be forthcoming from current research on computer-assisted language learning (CALL), which suffers from the same limitations as early research on classroom instruction: Little detail is provided to describe the inte…
Field independence: A source of language test variance
Recent language testing research investigates factors other than language profi ciency that may be responsible for variance in language test performance. There is some evidence indicating field independence may be one variable responsible for introducing systematic error into language test scores. This paper reports research investigating the relationship between field independence and lan guage measures. Results indicate differential relationshi…
Using Call effectively: What do we need to know about students
The Computational Analysis of English: A Corpus-Based Approach
specifically on the difficulty of recognizing learning versus language difficulties, that is, how to identify a nonnative-speaking child's need for special education services. They propose a model that administrators can employ that minimizes bias. In a similar vein, the next chapter, by Jeffery Braden and Sandra Fradd, suggests ways that administrators can anticipate difficulties and intervene before such referrals are necessary. William Tikunof…
Working Styles on Computers as Evidence of Second Language Learning Strategies
Data collected on 33 ESL students working with computerized spelling and dictation lessons were used to infer three learning strategies: advance preparation, monitoring input, and monitoring output. Subjects' cognitive styles were measured by the Group Embedded Figures Test (Witkin, Oltman, Raskin, and Karp 1971) for field independence and the Matching Familiar Figures Test (Yando and Kagan 1968) for reflection/impulsivity. English proficiency wa…
Computer-Assisted Language Learning as a Predictor of Success in Acquiring English as a Second Language
This article reports the results of a study of the effectiveness of computer-assisted language learning (CALL) in the acquisition of English as a second language by Arabic- and Spanish-speaking students in an intensive program. The study also examined two student variables-time spent using and attitude toward the CALL lessons-as well as four cognitive/affective characteristics--field independence, ambiguity tolerance, motivational intensity, and …
Ambiguity Tolerance and Field Independence as Predictors of Proficiency in English as a Second Language
The fact that some adults are more successful at acquiring an L2 than others has led to investigations of individual characteristics as predictors of successful L2 acquisition. This paper reports the results of an investigation of the relationship between two learner characteristics, Ambiguity Tolerance (AT) and Field Independence (FI), and adult learners' acquisition of English as a Second Language in the United States. A Multiple Regression Ana…
