SLA
THEORITICAL
PSYCHOLOGICAL LINGUISTIC
• Input Hypotheses
• Monitor Hypotheses
• Al learning, including language learning, occurs
through a process of imitation, practice,
reinforcement and habbit formtion.
• Environment: Source of linguistic stimuli.
• Focus: Observable behavior.
Behaviourism
B.F Skinner, 1957
Cognitive Psychology
Declarative Proceduralized
through repeated
knowledge Knowledge (no
practice
(intentional language mental effort)
learning)
• It explains how brain creates networks which connect words or phrases to other words
or phrases (as well as to events and objects) which occur at the same time
• Links or connections are strengthened through repeated (high frequency) exposure to
linguistic stimuli in specific contexts.
Processability Theory
• Processability Theory represent a way to relate underlying cognitive processes to stage in the second
language learner’s development (Pienemann, 1998)
• Theory was originally developed as a results of studies of the acquisition of German word order and,
later, on the basis of research with second language learners of English.
• Second language learners were observed to acquire HE
certain syntatic and morphological features of the
second language in predictable stages/ These features were referred to as ‘developmental’.
• Other features, referred to as ‘variational’, appeared to be learned by some but not all learners.
• It was suggested that each stage represented a further degree of complexity in processing strings of words
and grammatical makers.
