Call for Papers: Language Learning

Language Learning is an international journal that publishes rigorous, 
original empirical research as well as systematic critical literature reviews 
and innovative methodological contributions. Domains covered include first and 
second language acquisition in naturalistic as well as tutored contexts, 
including second language, foreign language, and bilingual education, as well 
as immersion programs and study abroad. All disciplinary perspectives are 
welcome, from linguistics and psychology to education, anthropology, 
sociology, cognitive science, or the neurosciences.

As one of the premier peer-reviewed journals in the field of applied 
linguistics, established in 1948 at the University of Michigan, Language 
Learning strives to promote research of the highest quality, from thorough 
literature reviews and solid theoretical frameworks to rigorous data analysis, 
cogent argumentation and clear presentation.

Authors should send an electronic copy of their manuscript with all author 
identification removed, but including the title and the abstract, along with a 
single-page document containing the authors’ affiliation, address, e-mail, FAX 
and phone number. Both of these should be attached to the same e-mail 
indicating that the manuscript is being submitted in order to be evaluated for 
publication in Language Learning.

Attachments should be in PDF format. Manuscripts must conform to the 
specifications of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological 
Association, 5th edition, and authors should verify that the reference list 
corresponds exactly to the text. Additional guidelines for manuscript 
preparation appear in the latest issue of the journal and on the journal’s 
webpage: http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/LL.

Language Learning processes manuscripts in a prompt and professional fashion. 
To expedite peer reviews and ensure the highest level of expertise in the 
review process, some manuscripts will be forwarded to the Associate Editor, 
Rob Schoonen, who will serve as the action editor in those cases.

The main contact for the journal is langlearn at umd.edu.
