Résumé :

GUIDES TO RESEARCH METHODS IN LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTICS

Current Approaches in Second Language Acquisition Research contains up-to-date coverage of both traditional and cutting-edge research methods and best practices in the study of second language acquisition (SLA). Edited by two leading scholars in the field, this essential resource offers an holistic overview of the qualitative, quantitative, interdisciplinary, statistical analysis, and data replication methods involved in collecting and analyzing data for disciplines such as sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, pragmatics, and education.

An international team of experts provides systematic guidance on theory-based methodologies, synthetic and meta-analytic work, mixed research methods, coding second language (L2) data validly and reliably, and more. Each chapter includes best practices, case studies, and research questions, together with suggested readings which exemplify a wide range of contemporary methodologies. Students will also find study questions, links to additional resources, and example study boxes that summarize methodological principles and connect them to real-world research studies.

Current Approaches in Second Language Acquisition Research builds on the foundation of Research Methods in Second Language Acquisition, the first volume in the Wiley Blackwell Guides to Research Methods series to cover the field of SLA.

Current Approaches in Second Language Acquisition Research is an excellent resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in SLA and applied linguistics programs, and a highly useful reference guide for both early-stage and more established SLA researchers and scholars....
