    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; activity type; discourse competence; evolutionary study; multi-word structures; individual differences; Spanish L2 acquisition; studying abroad effect; task variation; Spanish; spanska;

    Sammanfattning : The main purpose of this study is to observe the L2 acquisition effect of studying abroad during approximately four months in Swedish non-native speakers (NNSs) of Spanish with respect to their use of multi-word structures (MWSs) as compared to native speakers (NSs). In addition, this evolutionary study has a secondary aim which is to see the effect of the activity type on the amount and distribution of the MWSs encountered. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Motivación, aptitud y desarrollo estructural : Un estudio sobre la actuación lingüística en aprendientes suecos de español L2

    Författare :Rakel Österberg; Lars Fant; Inge Bartning; Carmen Muñoz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Analytic ability; accuracy; aptitude; development; individual differences; intrinsic and extrinsic motivation; lexical richness; proficiency; second language acquisition; spoken Spanish performance; syntactic complexity; self-regulation theory; Spanish language; Spanska språket; Spanish; spanska;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present study is to examine how the development of syntactic complexity and accuracy in spoken Spanish L2 is related to two parameters, motivation and aptitude, in which individual differences are often claimed to correlate with successful second language learning (Dörnyei and Skehan 2003). The study shows how an understanding of the relationship between progression in second language proficiency and motivation is gained through the study of longitudinal data and the assessment of motivation in discourse.

    Sammanfattning : The current thesis is based on four individual studies which aim to account for the expression of motion events (ME) in Spanish and Swedish as first languages (L1), in Swedish as a second language (L2), and in Spanish as a heritage language (SHL). The data, resulting from audio-recordings of different sorts of stimuli, have been analyzed with special focus on (1) the most common structures used for referring to various types of ME, (2) the types and amount of information provided by the participants, in particular as regards the semantic components Path, Manner and Ground, and (3) grammatical aspect and types of syntactic structures resorted to, including the correlation between the two latter factors and speakers’ discursive preferences.
