Abstract This study addresses the role of domain-general mechanisms in second-language learning and knowledge using an individual differences approach. We examine predictive validity implicit-statistical aptitude for implicit knowledge. Participants ( n = 131) completed a battery four measures nine grammar tests. Structural equation modeling revealed that only alternating serial reaction time t...

in this paper we investigate a nonlinear evolution model described by the rosenau-kdv equation. we propose a three-level average implicit finite difference scheme for its numerical solutions and prove that this scheme is stable and convergent in the order of o(τ2 + h2). furthermore we show the existence and uniqueness of numerical solutions. comparing the numerical results with other methods in...

researchers have suggested that interactional feedback which is between teacher and learner during their writing is associated with l2 learning because it prompts learners to notice l2 forms. this paper reports a classroom-based study that investigated the role of feedback in socio-cultural theory. in this study, 12 efl learners performed on three writing tasks and were provided with a three-st...
