“…Considering the nature of the N2 and LPC components, together with the collected data in the current experiment, two temporal windows were chosen: 250–350 ms window for N2 and 450–650 ms window for LPC. Following previous ERP studies on language switching ( Zhang et al, 2020 ; Jiao et al, 2022a ), we analyzed the mean amplitude of the waveform across these two time windows of N2 (frontal: F1, FZ, F2; frontal-central: FC1, FCZ, FC2) and LPC (central: C1, CZ, C2; central-parietal: CP1, CPZ, CP2; parietal: P1, PZ, P2). We conducted a linear mixed-effects model for each time window for statistical analyses.…”

The present study used event-related potentials (ERP) to examine Chinese-English bilinguals’ reactive and proactive language control as they performed mixed-language picture naming with face cues. All participants named pictures in Chinese (first language, L1) and English (second language, L2) across three sessions: a 25% face-language matched session, a baseline session without face cues, and a 75% face-language matched session. Behavioral analyses for reactive language control showed that the asymmetrical switch cost was larger for L2 than L1 in the 25% session and for L1 than L2 in the 75% session. ERP results revealed more negative N2 and LPC during L1 switching in 25% session but enhanced N2 during L2 switching in 75% session. Similar N2 and LPC effect was found during L1 and L2 switching in the baseline context. For proactive language control, the reversed language dominance and enhanced LPC amplitudes during L2 naming were consistent across the three sessions. Our findings suggest that reactive but not proactive language control is modulated by the ever-changing face contexts, which highlights the highly flexible bilingual control systems subserving nonlinguistic cues.

“…From another perspective, second language learning or acquisition needs real environment, and the materials under different environment will promote learners’ cognition on specific knowledge. Therefore, proper cognition features should be involved to meet learners’ language information processing (Cai et al, 2021; Zhang et al, 2020). The system could also act as a jointer of the cognition and the environment in language learning.…”

Chinese as a second language (CSL) learning has attracted more attention and supporting learners with adaptive resources becomes difficult. Some online systems recommended pre-designed resources from existing databases while the resources could not match learners’ context. Designing resources dynamically according to learners’ needs could be a solution while it’s time-consuming. Targeting this problem, we proposed a “content-structure” loosely coupled model. Based on the model, we developed an automatic resource generation system and used it in a university. One class was chosen and the students were randomly assigned to the experimental (22 students) and control group (21 students). They participated in the course all the same except the resources generation method. During the learning process, the online behaviors were recorded for behavioral analysis and the learners’ learning outcome and perceptions were measured by tests and questionnaires. Results showed that the system played positive roles in improving learners’ learning outcome and perceptions. Moreover, we found that learners in experimental group participated more actively and there’s evidence that the system could help learners better reflect on their needs. The results revealed the effectiveness of the system in supporting CSL learners’ contextualized learning. This design will provide inspiration for future context-aware CSL learning research.

“…In this field, computational models are generated in order to process natural languages in terms of the speech recognition, text-to-speech synthesis, and automated voice response (https://aclweb.org/portal/). Obviously, the research focuses of computational lin- (Zhao et al, 2021), eye-tracking (Barattieri et al, 2022Zeng et al, 2021), Event-relevant Product (ERP) (Saloranta et al, 2022;Zhang et al, 2019), lattice algorithm (Zhu & Clark, 2022), and questionnaires (Zhang et al, 2022;Kim & Kim, 2020) with advanced statistical methods. Apparently, it is quite prevalent for psycholinguists to use advanced technological research methods to probe the truth of language related with psychological development.…”

The debate about whether linguistics is a science or arts has lasted for quite long time. We argue that the interdisciplinary nature of linguistics is an appropriate answer based on the exploration of the study scopes of major branches in linguistics, such as computational linguistics, psycholinguistics, second language acquisition, social linguistics etc. Besides, the analysis of research methods used by major linguists also proof our argument. In the end, we conclude that the interdisciplinary nature of linguistics is more suitable.
