• Morphological awareness in Spanish-speaking English language learners: within and cross-language effects on word reading (2010, background): “Jarvis and Odlin (2000) showed that for Finnish-speaking adolescent learners of English, bound morphemes that mark spatial reference in their native language affected the use of prepositions in English.”
• Conceptual transfer: Crosslinguistic effects in categorization and construal* (2010, background): “…language backgrounds as exhibiting different attributes (e.g., Sera, Berge & Del Pintado, 1994), different spatial relationships (e.g., Ijaz, 1986; Jarvis & Odlin, 2000; Pavlenko, 2003), and differing characteristics related to temporal relationships, motion and event structure (e.g., Hohenstein,…”
• Semantic Transfer and Its Implications for Vocabulary Teaching in a Second Language (2004, unknown): “Further evidence for semantic transfer comes from controlled experimental studies of Jiang (2002) and Finkbeiner (2002).”
• CROSSLINGUISTIC INFLUENCE AND CONCEPTUAL TRANSFER: WHAT ARE THE CONCEPTS? (2005, background): “Furthermore, Jarvis and Odlin (2000) found a comparable difference in some prepositional choices in the same narratives: in a scene showing Chaplin and Paulette Goddard on a lawn, the phrase sat to the grass was chosen by several Finnish speakers but not by any Swedish speakers.”
• Cross‐Linguistic Influence (2008, methodology): “Both relativism and prototypes will be discussed elsewhere in this chapter, but here it will suffice to note that Jarvis and Odlin (2000) have employed similar methods with the same database of Finns and Swedes to examine issues related to morphological type, spatial reference, and transfer, and…”
• Same Source, Different Outcomes: A Study of Swedish Influence on the Acquisition of English in Finland (2004, background): “In our prior reading of the learners’ narratives for other research purposes (e.g. Jarvis & Odlin, 2000), we noted possible cases of transfer owing something to Swedish influence, and accordingly we have selected four lexical items (from a larger number of possible cases) worth a closer look, all…”
