• The influence of interlocutor proficiency in a paired oral assessment (2009, result): “It should be noted that scores for the monologue and pair tasks served different purposes and were not compared; this is also in keeping with empirical studies that have shown that monologic and dialogic speech are qualitatively different (O’Loughlin, 2001; Shohamy, 1994).”
• Interacting in pairs in a test of oral proficiency: Co-constructing a better performance (2009, background): “Although variability of interlocutor discourse can be somewhat controlled through training or at least the interaction can be guided through interlocutor frames (Lazaraton, 1996; O’Loughlin, 2001), it is still inherently unpredictable (Johnson, 2001; Stansfield & Kenyon, 1992).”
