  • Second language fluency across contexts

    Clare Wright, Pauliina PeltonenARTICLEIRAL - International Review of…2026

    Article Second language fluency across contexts: introduction to the special issue was published on September 23, 2025 in the journal International Review of Applied Linguistics in Language Teaching (volume 0, issue 0)

  • Fluency across modes

    Maarit Mutta, Pauliina Peltonen et al.ARTICLEIRAL - International Review of…2026

    The article presents an exploratory cross-modal analysis of fluency profiles in spoken and written first (L1, Finnish) and second (L2, English) language production of the same language users. Our data come from two research projects, from which we identified 11 university students participating in both. The spoken tasks consisted of monologue picture description (analysed with Praat), and the written tasks were short argumentative essays (collect…

  • Unravelling the relationship between language anxiety and foreign language speech fluency in a monologue production

    Open AccessMagdalena Szyszka, Pauliina Peltonen et al.ARTICLEJournal of Multilingual and…2026Cited by: 1References: 49

    This study investigated the interplay between language anxiety of advanced foreign language learners and their speech fluency measured with temporal indices. Language anxiety levels of 59 university level students of English were identified with the Input, Processing and Output Anxiety Scale (the IPOAS; MacIntyre & Gardner, 1994) and the Post-Session Survey on Anxiety. The former informed about the levels of anxiety experienced at three stages of…

  • The impact of L1 speaking style, task mode, and L2 proficiency on L2 fluency

    Open AccessPauliina Peltonen, Sandra Götz et al.ARTICLEStudies in Second Language…2025

    Fluency is an essential aspect of second language (L2) oral proficiency. Recent studies have demonstrated that L1 individual speaking style is connected to L2 fluency, suggesting that L2 speech fluency does not solely represent L2-specific skills. Furthermore, task mode (monologue vs. dialogue) has been shown to influence fluency. The present study examines the extent to which these two factors (L1 speaking style and task mode) can predict L2 spe…

  • L2 repair fluency through the lenses of L1 repair fluency, cognitive fluency, and language anxiety

    Open AccessPauliina Peltonen, Sanna Olkkonen et al.ARTICLEApplied Linguistics Review2025

    Repairs (including false starts, repetitions, and different types of self-corrections) have been examined in second language (L2) speech fluency research as one dimension of (dis)fluent speech. However, in contrast to other dimensions of L2 speech fluency (speed and breakdown), repair fluency is not equally well understood: the results are mixed, and more research investigating the factors behind L2 repair fluency is needed. While some previous s…

  • Connections between measured and assessed fluency in L2 peer interaction

    Pauliina PeltonenARTICLEIRAL - International Review of…2022

    This article examines the connections between ratings and measures of second language (L2) fluency based on dialogue data, extending previous studies on L2 individual fluency. The links between fluency and strategic competence are studied from a problem-solving perspective. Fifteen raters’ assessments and comments of individual fluency, interactional fluency, and strategic competence based on six samples of L2 peer interaction were examined. Flue…
