Citations in the corpus

• The effects of focused and unfocused written corrective feedback in an English as a foreign language context (2008, background): “Truscott (2004) made the important point that correction may cause learners to avoid constructions on which they expect to be corrected, thereby reducing the number of errors they make in these constructions.”
• DIFFERENTIAL EFFECTS OF ORAL AND WRITTEN CORRECTIVE FEEDBACK IN THE ESL CLASSROOM (2010, background): “One position is that CF leads only to explicit (not implicit) L2 knowledge; that is, it does not affect learners’ linguistic competence if this is defi ned in terms of implicit knowledge (Krashen, 1982 , 1985 ; Schwartz, 1993 ; Truscott, 1996 , 2004 ).”
• SECOND LANGUAGE WRITING RESEARCH AND WRITTEN CORRECTIVE FEEDBACK IN SLA (2010, background): “It is only fair to note that Truscott has also published criticisms of these studies (e.g., Truscott, 2004 , 2007 ; Truscott & Hsu, 2008).”
• Written corrective feedback in second language acquisition and writing studies (2012, background): “While Truscott’s exchange with Ferris in the Journal of Second Language Writing (Ferris 1999; Truscott 1999) is probably the best known of these, he has traded rebuttal papers with others since then (with Chandler: Truscott 2004, 2009).”
• Evidence in Support of Written Corrective Feedback. (2008, background): “This marks a step forward because, as Truscott (1996, 1999, 2004) and Ferris (1999, 2004) point out, the effectiveness of written corrective feedback can only be assessed when accuracy is measured on new texts.”
• Future Directions in Feedback on Second Language Writing: Overview and Research Agenda (2010, background): “…help learners to both improve their drafts and their longer term writing ability (e.g. Ferris (1999 , 2004, 2006, 2010), Chandler (2004, 2009), Ellis et al. (2008), Bitchener, 2008; Bitchener and Knoch, (2009); and those who have argued against this (e.g. Truscott, 1996, 1999, 2004, 2007, 2009).”
• Meta-analysis in Second Language Research: Choices and Challenges (2010, background): “Seeking to settle perhaps one of the most highly polemic debates in SLA (see Chandler, 2004; Ferris, 1999, 2004; Truscott, 1996, 1999, 2004), two meta-analyses summarized the accumulated effects of corrective feedback on L2 writing (Poltavtchenko & Johnson, 2009; Truscott, 2007).”
• The Potential Role(s) of Writing in Second Language Development. (2012, background): “Truscott (2004, 2007) has maintained that corrective feedback is ineffective.”
• Contextualizing corrective feedback in second language writing pedagogy (2010, unknown): “Nevertheless, we hasten to add that results must be evaluated with caution because no control group2 was used, an important and acknowledged element in research design (Truscott, 1996, 2004; Bitchener, 2005; Ferris, 2006; Guénette, 2007).”
• The effect of error correction on learners' ability to write accurately (2007, background): “…Grammar correction; Accuracy; Meta-analysis In the last decade, there has been a great deal of discussion on the value of correction in writing classes, focused primarily on the proper interpretation of relevant research (e.g. Chandler, 2004; Ferris, 1999, 2004; Truscott, 1996, 1999a, 2004).”
