• Beliefs and Learning Experience of Non-Native Japanese-Language Teachers : Comparison of Quantitative Investigations in Fiscal Year 2004/2005 and 2014/2015

    ( 13 ) 7 - 22  2017

  　View Summary

  This study reveals the difference in beliefs and learning experience of non-native Japanese teachers over 10 years by comparing the result of quantitative investigations in fiscal year 2004/2005 and 2014/2015. Through factor analyses of the result of investigations in 2004/2005 (Kubota 2007), two factors; "Accuracy orientation" and "Expressiveness orientation" were found. In this study factor scale scores of these two beliefs factors were calculated. Significant differences in comparisons by region, and weak correlation between "accuracy orientation" and "grammar, translation and memorization type" learning experience were found. In the analysis of investigations in 2014/2015, significant differences of belief factor scores were also found in comparisons by region. As for learning experience, factor scale scores of "grammar, translation and memorization type" were almost the same as the result of investigation in 2004/2005, but factor scale scores for "communicative activity type" were higher than the result of the investigation in 2004/2005. The 2014/2015 study found weak correlation between both beliefs and "composition, presentation and debate type".

• The Acquisition of Japanese Vowel Length Contrast by Indonesian Native Speakers: Evidence from Perception and Production

  NAJOAN Franky R., YOKOYAMA Noriko, ISOMURA Kazuhiro, USAMI Yo, KUBOTA Yoshiko

  Journal of the Phonetic Society of Japan   16 ( 2 ) 28 - 39  2012

  　View Summary

  This research investigated the acquisition of long and short vowels and pitch accents through perception, sentence reading, and conversational discourse of the Japanese language by 20 Indonesian speakers. They made few errors in listening to short vowels, however, many errors in long ones, and final positioning was very difficult. Indonesians use pitch change as a source of information in long vowel recognition. While reading they made few errors in pronouncing long and short vowels as they read it consciously. In natural discourse, they committed errors in all middle, initial, final positions. In both reading and natural discourse, they pronounced long vowels without any pitch change.
