A set of hypotheses, drawn on a socio-cognitive theory of reading-writing connection, was developed to examine how reading-writing practices influenced literacy development through online written communication. Factor analysis was conducted to examine empirical relationships among the theoretical variables obtained from survey data. The results showed a significant role of online written communication in reinforcing the relationship between literacy practices and development. First, the individual and social practices of reading and writing had little impact on the development in both areas. Second, online written communication channels had a significant interaction effect on reading-writing practices both at the individual and social dimensions. Third, online written communication channels, such as SNS-based interaction using mobile devices, served as the mediating variable that empowered the relationship between reading-writing practices and development. The empirical results suggest that, to encourage L2 students toward a more integrative continuum of reading-writing practices, practitioners should incorporate online written communication channel into teaching practices.

The effects of input/ output enhanced instructions on vocabulary and grammar gains in blended learning. Linguistic Research 36(Special Edition), 107-122. This paper is to examine the effects of the enhanced input and output on the acquisition of English grammatical items. To this end, input-enhanced instruction (processing instruction) with an output-enhanced instruction (dictogloss) was compared wherein the instruction is blended of offand on-line classes. A total of 90 university students were assigned to three different classes, where one was meaning-based instruction, another input-enhanced group, and the last another output-enhanced group. The meaning-focused group used a video clip watching and performing ensuing activities for comprehension without any input or output treatment of the text in both onand off-line. The input-enhanced group used audio tweaking enhancement techniques such as speed and volume adjustments, while the output-enhanced group performed dictogloss tasks in both onand off-line. An immediate posttest after the semester was administered to assess the learners’ gain on vocabulary and grammar. The results gleaned that both input and output-enhanced groups performed significantly better in at least one component, but not both. The input group outperformed both meaning-focused group and output group in grammar gains, while the output group performed better in vocabulary gains. Pedagogic implications drawn from the current study are to teach vocabulary and grammar in two different blended modes of enhancement.

A study on evaluating English speech rate: Focusing on professional vs. non-professional raters. Linguistic Research 36(Special Edition), 59-80. This study is designed to find out what speeds professional evaluators give the best scores to on speaking assessments and how their speed-related assessment differs from non-expert evaluators. The test tokens are designed to avoid the experimental complications that have normally appeared in previous studies of relevance. The test materials recorded by a trained native speaker with 8 different speed ranges are free of distortion caused by computer manipulation, and they exclude other factors affecting rating results as much as possible. Three different groups of eight each participated (8 native English raters and 8 Korean raters who had official evaluation experience on an English-speaking test as professional raters, and 8 general Korean student-raters with high English proficiency as non-professional raters), with 24 raters in total, and the results show that the range of the speaking rate that draws the highest score is between 4.43 and 4.50 syl/sec on average. The assessment of extremely fast speed ranges varied slightly among the three rater groups but all three groups showed a similar tendency.

A study of common behavior in /s/-irregular and /h/-final stems of Korean. Linguistic Research 36(2), 263-288. The main purpose of this article is to bring to light the common behavior of the so-called ‘/s/-irregular’ and ‘/h/-final’ stems in Korean, focusing on the similarly opaque phonological behavior of those stems when they encounter vowel-initial suffixes. It is proposed that their phonological similarity should be due to the lack of place feature in their input specifications of the stem-final consonants. The proposal follows from the discussion that combining the notion of Richness of the Base with Lexicon Optimization in optimality-theoretic framework, language learners should consult surface alternations and choose input forms that map onto outputs in the least offensive way with respect to the grammar of ranked constraints. Adopting placeless specifications as their input for both /s/-irregular and /h/-final stems, their apparent opaque alternations are adequately dealt with employing independently motivated universal constraints. The irregular status of /s/-irregular stems in Korean is still maintained but the source of their peculiar behavior turns out to be the lack of place feature just like /h/. Under the proposed ranking of constraints, it is also best explained that the stem-final /s/ in /s/-irregular stems gets their empty place node filled through the help of spreading from the following obstruent while that in /s/-regular stems is simply brought into the purview of place assimilation. I conclude that all relevant cases of /s/and /h/-final stems can be dealt with successfully in a framework that has recourse to input specifications.

The relationship between “native-like” L2 vowel production and perceptual judgments enhancement by native listeners. Linguistic Research 36(2), 241-261. The relationship between second language (L2) vowel production as a function of L2 experience and its perceptual judgments by native listeners of the language was investigated to determine whether the production improvement in the specific acoustics of L2 vowels give rise to higher judgement accuracy. A total of 20 Mandarin Chinese differing in the L2 experience (6 months vs. 2 years) were compared to ten native Korean speakers in their production of seven Korean vowels. The vowel production was used for an identification test by 23 native Korean speaking listeners to further verify the effects of L2 experience on the native Korean listeners’ judgments of Chinese speakers’ vowel production. For the analyses, F1 and F2 values of the initial vowels were measured and normalized across the three groups. The production results showed that the Korean mid vowels /ɛ/ and /ʌ/ were produced in a more native-like manner with increased L2 experience. As for the perception results, Chinese speakers’ non-native-like production of Korean vowels /ɛ/ and /ɯ/ showed high judgement accuracy, whereas more native-like vowels /u/ and /ʌ/ displayed significantly lower accuracy. Overall, the acoustic distinctiveness, rather than native-likeness, of the L2 vowel categories was shown to yield higher accuracy for the perceptual judgments by native listeners.

Multimodality and discourse viewpoint configuration: A case study of UK political posters. Linguistic Research 36(2). 289-323. The aim of this paper is to provide a cognitive semantic analysis of multimodal viewpoint phenomena by conducting a case study of political campaign posters from the United Kingdom’s Conservative and Labour parties. It provides a qualitative account of a selection of posters within the framework of Discourse Viewpoint Space (Dancygier and Vandelanotte 2016), specifically exploring discourse viewpoint configurations in the posters with a special focus on their texts (e.g., lexical choices and style), visual images, and the viewpoints of different participants (i.e., current speaker/addressee and represented speaker/addressee). We collected 87 posters from the Advertising Archives (http://www.advertisingarchives.co.uk) in August 2018. We categorized the selected posters into three types: (1) those explicitly encoding the speaker, (2) those explicitly encoding the addressee, and (3) those explicitly encoding both. We take a detailed look at each type, focusing on whether the viewpoint of the current interlocutor is aligned with that of the represented interlocutor, assuming that the current speaker is equivalent to those who design the posters, and the current addressee to those who view the posters. Based on this inductive functional taxonomy, this paper discusses how the multimodal posters’ political messages are constructed and construed in terms of the levels of hierarchical viewpoint networks, which include local perspectives and more comprehensive discourse viewpoints, as well as viewpoint alignment between the participants. The study shows that the viewpoint configurations of the posters are key to the articulation of the intended messages such that they fit the values of the two political parties. The study also supports the claim that multiple viewpoints are intrinsic to meaning construction, and to the conceptualization of multimodal expressions (Sweetser 2012).
