Variability and Variation in Second Language Acquisition Orders: A Dynamic Reevaluation (2015, background): “This problem is clearly illustrated by the results of a longitudinal study on L2 accent (Derwing & Munro, 2013; Derwing, Thomson, & Munro, 2006).”
The Effectiveness of Drama as an Instructional Approach for the Development of Second Language Oral Fluency, Comprehensibility, and Accentedness (2017, methodology): “Following procedures used in previous studies (Derwing & Munro, 2013; Derwing, Munro, Foote, Waugh, & Fleming, 2014; Derwing et al., 2008), 20-second speech samples were rated from the beginning of the picture descriptions, video retell, and monologue tasks, after initial false starts and…”
The Impact of Cooperative Learning on Developing Speaking Ability and Motivation Toward Learning English (2019, unknown): “Supportive evidence for this was also revealed in some studies (Derwing & Munro, 2013) that indicated that, when compared with traditional teaching, CL was more likely to improve students’ positive attitudes towards EFL learning, which may facilitate students’ interest and intrinsic motivation to…”
Exploring the relationship between productive vocabulary knowledge and second language oral ability (2019, background): “…comprehensibility (but not necessarily reduced foreign accentedness) in accordance with increased experience (typically measured via length of residence profile), as long as they have high willingness to communicate with native and other non-native speakers (Derwing and Munro 2013; Saito 2015b).”
Video-Based Interaction, Negotiation for Comprehensibility, and Second Language Speech Learning: A Longitudinal Study (2017, background): “For instance, Derwing and Munro (2013) conducted a longitudinal investigation into how late immigrants could improve their oral abilities during 7 years of immersion in Canada.”
Second language speech production: Investigating linguistic correlates of comprehensibility and accentedness for learners at different ability levels (2016, background): “…timing of first exposure to the L2 (Flege et al., 1995) and with an increasing amount of experience (usually operationalized as LOR in the target country), especially when they use their L2 on a daily basis (Flege & Liu, 2001) and demonstrate high willingness to communicate (Derwing & Munro, 2013).”
Attitudes towards foreign accents among adult multilingual language users (2015, background): “Derwing and Munro (2013) have shown there to be high levels of inter-rater reliability across the dimensions of accentedness, as well as those of fluency and comprehensibility, which is defined as an individual’s perception of the difficulty he/she experiences in understanding an accent.”
