Description: Working Memory and Second Language Learning : Towards an Integrated Approach, Paperback by Wen, Zhisheng, ISBN 1783095717, ISBN-13 9781783095711, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This volume outlines an approach to understanding and measuring working memory components and functions in first and second language learning, processing, and development, and how working memory is key in aptitude for second language acquisition, as well as the cognitive foundations of second language task planning and speech performance through the effects of working memory functions. It draws on research from the cognitive sciences, particularly cognitive psychology, and applied linguistics, particularly cognitively oriented second language acquisition research, to propose a theoretical model of working memory and second language acquisition that integrates current research and provides a framework for future research. It details the evolution and development of the working memory concept, methodological issues in working memory measures and their assessment procedures, cognitive psycholinguistic research on working memory and first language acquisition, working memory and second language acquisition research, the integrated approach to working memory and second language acquisition research, how it can help reconceptualize and reframe research and the debate on the “tradeoff-cognition” hypothesis in task performance, and the relationship between working memory and the longer-term development of second language in the context of language aptitude research.
