  • Deferred multimodal input enhances L2 listening and fast-speech adaptation

    Open AccessMayumi Kajiura, A Smith et al.ARTICLESystem2025References: 3

    For learners who find reading easier than listening and struggle to keep up with the speed of native speakers, listening practice that emphasizes linking sounds to written words and adapting to speech rate is essential. This study investigates the effects of deferred multimodal presentation , an input method that temporally separates reading and listening. Unlike simultaneous input (e.g., reading-while-listening), this sequential approach reduces…

  • Brain activity predicts future learning success in intensive second language listening training

    Open AccessMayumi Kajiura, Hyeonjeong Jeong et al.ARTICLEBrain and Language2021

    This study explores neural mechanisms underlying how prior knowledge gained from pre-listening transcript reading helps comprehend fast-rate speech in a second language (L2) and applies to L2 learning. Top-down predictive processing by prior knowledge may play an important role in L2 speech comprehension and improving listening skill. By manipulating the pre-listening transcript effect (pre-listening transcript reading [TR] vs. no transcript read…
