Writing from Abroad: Linguistic complexity and L2 Arabic writing quality across genres
The Role of Health Information in Managing Health Services Efficiently and Effectively (Health Information - Managing Health Services)
The systematic management of health information has evolved from an ancillary support function into a core strategic driver of efficiency and effectiveness in modern healthcare. This paper examines the multifaceted role of health information in enabling superior management of health services. It begins by defining the foundational concepts of health information, health informatics, and Health Information Systems (HIS), detailing the transition fr…
The Predictive Processing of Number Information in L1 and L2 Arabic Speakers
Prior research has shown that people can predict the syntactic features of an upcoming word during sentence comprehension. However, evidence for morphosyntactic predictive processing has been limited to gender or case marking in a small subset of Indo-European languages. In the current study, we implemented the eye-tracking visual world paradigm to investigate whether L1 (n = 18) and L2 (n = 40) Arabic speakers could extract number information fr…
Priming the Arabic dative: Evidence for syntactic abstractness and implicit learning
Language speakers are more likely to reuse a recently experienced syntactic structure, a phenomenon known as syntactic priming. However, empirical evidence for syntactic priming comes primarily from a small subset of Indo-European languages. Using a comprehension-to-production priming task, this preliminary study examined immediate and cumulative syntactic priming in Arabic, a language with a different typology than studied thus far. Nine native …
The Effects of Two Association Measures on L2 Collocation Processing
The influence of association measures has been little examined in research on L2 collocation processing. For this reason, the present study replicated Öksüz et al. (2020) experiment on intermediate L2 learners of English to determine whether the association measure mutual information (MI) is a stronger predictor of L2 performance than the Log Dice measure. Twenty-two intermediate Arab learners of English completed a timed acceptability judgment t…
Examining Engagement in the Discussion Section of Marketing Research Articles
Studies have shown that the use of Engagement resources is a subtle task for research article writers, making the appropriate use of such resources a complex topic for less experienced writers. For this reason, the present study examined expert writers' ways of positioning their work in marketing research articles on Discussion sections to highlight how Engagement resources can be managed successfully. Drawing on the Engagement subsystem of the A…
Disagreement Strategies used by Speakers of English as a Lingua Franca in Business Meetings
Numerous studies have attested to the consensus-orientation and cooperative nature of English as a lingua franca (ELF) interactions. However, limited attention has been given to moments of disagreements in ELF communication, with most of the little existing work focusing on disagreements in ELF academic or informal contexts. Consequently, little is known about how ELF users display disagreement in real-life business contexts. For this reason, thi…
