  • An Exploratory Analysis of Linking Adverbials Used by Filipino, Pakistani, and Thai Writers of English

    Randy Appel, Corin Golding

    Journal of Modern Languages   33 ( 1 ) 50 - 73  2023年07月  [査読有り]

    担当区分:筆頭著者

     概要を見る

    The current study provides a Contrastive Interlanguage Analysis (CIA) of linking adverbials (e.g., furthermore, in conclusion, on the other hand) in the second language (L2) English academic writing of post-secondary students from three countries: the Philippines, Pakistan, and Thailand. This analysis makes use of 80 essays from each of these three first language (L1) groups by way of data sourced from the International Corpus Network of Asian Learner English (ICNALE); we eschew the use of a native speaker control group in response to recent critiques of the native speaker fallacy. Quantitative and qualitative analyses revealed several noteworthy production tendencies which distinguish each English variety. These include a generally low frequency of linking adverbial tokens by Filipino writers of English, as well as a comparatively narrow range of linking adverbial types by Pakistani writers of English. In terms of functional category differences, Thai writers displayed a relatively high frequency of listing devices while Pakistani writers showed a low frequency of appositional linking adverbials, and a high frequency of resultative linking adverbials. Methodological and pedagogical implications of these findings are discussed.

  • Recurrent Word Combinations in EAP Test-Taker Writing: Differences between High- and Low-Proficiency Levels

    Randy Appel, David Wood

    LANGUAGE ASSESSMENT QUARTERLY   13 ( 1 ) 55 - 71  2016年01月  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    The correct use of frequently occurring word combinations represents an important part of language proficiency in spoken and written discourse. This study investigates the use of English-language recurrent word combinations in low-level and high-level L2 English academic essays sourced from the Canadian Academic English Language (CAEL) assessment. Quantitative and qualitative measures of analysis were used to investigate how L2 English writers of differing proficiency levels made use of recurrent word combinations in their writing. Results indicate that low-level writers tend to use more stance and discourse-organizing expressions in their essays, and more of these identified expressions also appear in the articles included as part of the test materials (i.e., suggesting that low-level writers used verbatim copying as a test-taking strategy). High-level writers were found to be less dependent on the included reading articles and made greater use of referential bundles in their writing.

  • Multiword constructions in first year business and engineering university textbooks and EAP textbooks

    David C. Wood, Randy Appel

    JOURNAL OF ENGLISH FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES   15   1 - 13  2014年09月  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    The body of research into formulaic language, multiword meaning and functional units, has shed light on their role in academic discourse. Some studies have examined which units might be of greatest utility for teaching English for academic purposes (EAP), dealing with corpora of academic language. The reality of most EAP programs is a focus on preparing students for first year university courses, in which textbooks play the key role. The present study uses a corpus analysis method focusing on units called multiword constructions (MWC), and addresses three hitherto unexplored key issues for EAP teachers and materials developers: What MWC exist in first year textbooks used in business and engineering, the most popular EAP student majors at a large Canadian university; whether the first year textbook MWCs are present in the reading texts in popular EAP textbooks; whether the EAP textbooks contain pedagogical treatment of MWC. The results show that the MWC are weakly present in the EAP materials, and that they are not dealt with pedagogically. This knowledge has important implications for EAP practitioners and materials developers. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  • Creation of an L2 English Academic Writing corpus

    2022年  

     概要を見る

    This study used academic essays from the Academic Writing and Discussion in English (AWADE) program to create a graded corpus that can now be used for research purposes and program development. This corpus consists of over 200 essays, and each essay was graded by 3 trained raters with academic English teaching experience.All essays from students who had previously submitted a research ethics approval form were digitally downloaded. Next, each digital file was reviewed to ensure no identifying materials (e.g., student names, ID numbers) were included. After removing any writing that could identify particular students, each essay was re-examined to eliminate erroneous characters (e.g., @, *, ~) that are sometimes included because of the downloading method used to gather essays. Finally, overly long/short essays were eliminated to ensure a relatively narrow range of essay lengths. This was important since similar average essay lengths can lead to improved analysis in later stages and more insightful comparisons between writer groups. After preparing the essays for analysis, each essay was evaluated by a minimum of three trained raters. Ratings took place over an approximately 1-month period.

  • Metadiscourse in L2 English academic writing: Identifying L1 related differences

    2020年  

     概要を見る

    This study used a combination of manual and automated analyses to examine how writers from various first language (L1) backgrounds make use of metadiscourse in their second language (L2) English academic writing. The Authorial Voice Analyzer (AVA; Yoon, 2017), a natural language processing tool for the analysis of interactional metadiscourse, was the main means of data extraction. Initial analyses based on a self-assembled corpus of L1 Arabic, Chinese, and French writing produced in an English as a Second Language context yielded no major differences in metadiscourse. However, this may have been influenced by the frequent presence of in-text citations used by these writers. Therefore, writing from an alternative corpus of L2 English writing, the International Corpus Network of Asian Learners of English (ICNALE) was also analyzed. This corpus produced several noteworthy results, including significant L1-related differences in the use of metadiscourse across all major functional categories (hedges and boosters, attitude markers, self-mentions and reader pronouns) by L1 Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writers.  

  • Linking Adverbials in L2 English Academic Writing

    2019年  

     概要を見る

    The present study used manual analysis of essays from 8 first language (L1) groups sourced from the International Corpus Network of Asian Learners of English to uncover statistically significant differences in the use of linking adverbials (e.g., furthermore, on the other hand, in addition) by each L1 group. The first manuscript from this data set (Appel, in press) targeted L1 Chinese, L1 Indonesian, and L1 Korean writers of second language (L2) English with major findings including relative overuse of resultative linking adverbials (e.g., therefore) by L1 Korean writers, transitions (e.g., nowadays) by L1 Chinese writers, and underuse of contrastive linking adverbials (e.g., however) by L1 Indonesian writers of L2 English. Since the data extraction went ahead of schedule, I was able to collect sufficient data to begin work on a second manuscript targeting L1 Chinese, L1 Arabic, and L1 English writers. This study is currently in preparation and I am to submit this second manuscript by the end of the summer. I believe I should also be able to start working on a third manuscript from this same data set over the summer break. 

  • Single and Multi-word Measures of L2 English Writing Proficiency

    2017年   Angel Arias

     概要を見る

    The present study used a collection of over400 automated single and multi-word measures to explore their relationship withdifferences in L2 English writing proficiency based on a graded corpus of 496writing samples from a widely used language proficiency test. After running correlationsbetween the full range of measures and the score awarded to each essay, we seta conservative minimum correlation cut-off of .30. To account formulticollinearity between significantly correlated predictor variables, in anycase where two predictor variables held a minimum correlation of .70 with eachother, only one variable was retained. Finally, multiple regression was used tobetter understand which variables could account for differences in writingproficiency. The most parsimonious regression yielded a model with fourpredictor variables, total word count,orthographic neighborhood frequency, lexical decision time, and word naming response time accounting for36% of total variance in writing proficiency scores. These results provide insight into the value of various linguistic features in assessments of L2 English writing proficiency.
