'Did You See That?' - The Role of Repetition and Enhancement on Lexical Bundle Processing in English Learning Materials (2021)
Journal Article
Northbrook, J., Allen, D., & Conklin, K. (2022). 'Did You See That?' - The Role of Repetition and Enhancement on Lexical Bundle Processing in English Learning Materials. Applied Linguistics, 43(3), 453-472. https://doi.org/10.1093/applin/amab063

For second-language learners, the use of formulaic language can benefit processing. Previous studies have explored the development of a 'processing advantage' for lexical bundles and investigated whether learning materials can be optimized via repeti...

The effect of input modes and number of exposures on the learning of L2 binomials (2021)
Journal Article
Alotaibi, S., Pellicer-Sánchez, A., & Conklin, K. (2022). The effect of input modes and number of exposures on the learning of L2 binomials. ITL, 173(1), 58-93. https://doi.org/10.1075/itl.21001.alo

Despite the importance of mastering different types of formulaic sequences in a second language, little is known about the relative effect of different input modes on their acquisition. This study explores the learning of a particular type of formula... Read More about The effect of input modes and number of exposures on the learning of L2 binomials.

A Global Perspective on Testing Infants Online: Introducing ManyBabies-AtHome (2021)
Journal Article
Zaadnoordijk, L., Buckler, H., Cusack, R., Tsuji, S., & Bergmann, C. (2021). A Global Perspective on Testing Infants Online: Introducing ManyBabies-AtHome. Frontiers in Psychology, 12, Article 703234. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2021.703234

Online testing holds great promise for infant scientists. It could increase participant diversity, improve reproducibility and collaborative possibilities, and reduce costs for researchers and participants. However, despite the rise of platforms and...

Literature, Democracy and the Object: from Lukács to Rancière and Back (2021)
Journal Article
Evans, J. (2021). Literature, Democracy and the Object: from Lukács to Rancière and Back. Angelaki, 26(5), 72-87. https://doi.org/10.1080/0969725X.2021.1963079

The idea of “literary democracy” can be traced back to the early twentieth century, which this article does by looking initially at the work of Georg Lukács. His distinctly humanist view of literary democracy resonates with other key thinkers, includ... Read More about Literature, Democracy and the Object: from Lukács to Rancière and Back.

In recent years, social and political commentators have criticised the ongoing marketisation of the UK's state-based healthcare system, the National Health Service (NHS). This paper examines the websites of 187 NHS's Clinical Commissioning Groups (CC... Read More about 'You said, we did': A corpus-based analysis of marketising discourse in healthcare websites.

Framing trauma leaders’ request in emergency care interactions A multimodal analysis using eye-tracking glasses (2021)
Journal Article
Tsuchiya, K., Coffey, F., Mackenzie, A., Atkins, S., Chalupnik, M., Timmons, S., Whitfield, A., Vernon, M., & Crundall, D. (2021).

When the Idiom Advantage Comes Up Short: Eye-Tracking Canonical and Modified Idioms (2021)
Journal Article
Kyriacou, M., Conklin, K., & Thompson, D. (2021). When the Idiom Advantage Comes Up Short: Eye-Tracking Canonical and Modified Idioms. Frontiers in Psychology, 12, Article 675046. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2021.675046

The literature on idioms often talks about an ‘idiom advantage’, such that familiar idioms (spill the beans) are generally processed faster than comparable literal phrases (burn the beans). More recently, researchers have explored the processing of i... Read More about When the Idiom Advantage Comes Up Short: Eye-Tracking Canonical and Modified Idioms.
