The Effects of Complexity, Accuracy, and Fluency on Communicative Adequacy in Oral Task Performance (2014, methodology): “To assess various aspects of fluency, we obtained indices of breakdown, speed, as well as repair fluency (Skehan 2003).”
Second language fluency: speaking style or proficiency? Correcting measures of second language fluency for first language behavior (2015, background): “Skehan (2003) and Tavakoli and Skehan (2005) noted that ﬂuency has several aspects: breakdown ﬂuency, speed ﬂuency, and repair ﬂuency.”
Task-Based Language Learning (2011, background): “Arising out of pedagogic proposals for a greater emphasis on communicative activities in language teaching (see, e.g., Brumfit & Johnson, 1979; Skehan, 2003; Valdman, 1978, 1980; Widdowson, 1978, for reviews), TBLT places the construct of “task” at the center of curricular planning.”
