Whoop, excited to present an experimental pragmatics study on L2 speakers' scalar implicature interpretation together with Elizabeth Wonnacott at #XPRAG2022 in Italy!🇮🇹 The weather in Pavia- will it be warm but not hot or will it be warm and possibly hot?🙌🌞🤓

What an absolutely epic week Uni of Birmingham learning from our three incredible and engaging teachers! Thanks for all the statistical rethinking Bodo Winter Timo Roettger and Márton Sóskuthy. As the saying goes: so long, and thanks for all the (dead) fish 🐠! #BhamStats22

We’d still love your help recruiting 7-8yo participants for this exciting study about how children learn new #languages. Please see Elizabeth Wonnacott thread ⬇️ for full details and link to take part. #research #education

Together with Johannes Schulz, we have invited four fantastic speakers for the applied linguistics seminars at Department of Education, University of Oxford! These seminars will take place from 1-2 pm on Jan 24, Feb 7, Feb 21 and Feb 28. All are welcome and can be accessed via Teams. (1/6)

🔔🔔 Seminar alert 🔔🔔 We are very excited to have Prof Suzanne Graham to give a talk on a digital game-based assessment at the first App Ling seminar of the term TOMORROW! Everyone is welcome (link to Teams & more info in next tweet)!

Looking for cognitive abilities test for 6-year-olds as baseline test prior to intervention study. Perhaps similar to WASI matrix reasoning subtest, but ideally all children can take it at once (timetable constraints!) Maybe digital options? 🧑‍💻

new postdoc job with me and michael ramscar -based in Oxford- applications by 14 April DM or email me for more info jobs.ac.uk/job/CYL621/res…

🚨 New paper! Multi-word units (e.g. My favourite_is_) are ubiquitous in early L2 teaching. Yet, researchers know very little about their impact on student's L2 learning. Evidence needed! Systematic Review published with Cate Hamilton ([email protected]) Elizabeth Wonnacott Victoria Murphy bera-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/re…

So, I passed my PhD viva with no corrections last week 🙂 Many thanks to my examiners Dr Faidra Faitaki ([email protected]) and @adelegoldberg1 as well as to my brilliant supervisors Elizabeth Wonnacott and Victoria Murphy!

🚨 New paper w/Elizabeth Wonnacott! We scrutinise Truth-Value-Judgments in L2 implicature derivation research and argue that they only capture sensitivity to under-informativeness. We support this with experimental data. Pre-reg/script/data/analysis/materials online tinyurl.com/d3ndhphm
