ISSN: 2210-6480

Processability Theory (PT) as developed by Manfred Piene­mann is a
prominent theory of second language acquisition. PT serves as a framework
for a wide range of research cover­ing issues such as L2 processing,
interlanguage variation, typological effects on SLA, L1 transfer,
linguistic profiling and L2 assessment, stabilisation/fossilisation and
teachability. The PALART series serves as a platform for making current
research within the PT framework and its application to measurement and
teaching, as well as the interdisciplinary discussion of PT accessible to
both research­ers and graduate students in the field. PALART is designed to
provide a thematic platform for the presentation of current high-quality
work within the PT framework. The thematic scope of the series reflects the
wide scope of theoretical, empirical and practical aspects of PT.

The first volume in the new series is:

Studying Processability Theory: An Introductory Textbook

such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These

your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match

costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.
