Contrasting Effects of Starting Age and Input on the Oral Performance of Foreign Language Learners (2014, background): “This seminal study sets off a line of research that has featured prominently in the field of L2 acquisition up till the present time (e.g. DeKeyser 2000; Birdsong and Molis 2001; Abrahamsson and Hyltenstam 2008; DeKeyser et al. 2010; Granena and Long 2013).”
Age Effects in Second Language Learning: Stepping Stones Toward Better Understanding (2013, background): “…evidence of an interaction between age and aptitude (Abrahamsson & Hyltenstam, 2008; Bylund, Abrahamsson, & Hyltenstam, 2010; DeKeyser, 2000; DeKeyser et al., 2010), but as aptitude has been defined and measured in a variety of ways, and as aptitude is really an almost metonymical term for…”
Input and long-term effects of starting age in foreign language learning (2011, unknown): “Furthermore, these analyses also commonly show that length of residence in the L2-speaking community does not influence the results in a statistically significant way (e.g., DeKeyser 2000; DeKeyser et al. 2010).”
Raising language awareness in peer interaction: a cross-context, cross-methodology examination (2012, background): “Consequently, the results need to be cautiously interpreted according to age effects on both L2 processing (DeKeyser, Alfi-Shabtay, & Ravid, 2010 ; Lyster & Saito, 2010 ) and the manner in which reciprocal training is transferred to collaborative interaction as well as contextual effects entailing”
Age of onset, length of residence, language aptitude, and ultimate L2 attainment in three linguistic domains (2013, methodology): “…MLAT Words-in-Sentences sub-test (DeKeyser, 2000) and the verbal aptitude test comparable to the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) in the United States (DeKeyser et al., 2010) – and the unspeeded auditory GJTs all tap the same underlying language analytic component of aptitude, again facilitating a…”
