Abstract:

Pragmatic competence plays a key role in intercultural communication,
particularly for students studying in a target community. This book
investigates the effect of study abroad on second language learners’
productive and receptive pragmatic competences, as well as their cognitive
processes during speech act production. It employs a variety of research
instruments, both quantitative and qualitative, to explore learners’ pragmatic
development over one year. The inclusion of a control group is a
methodological strength of the longitudinal study, many such studies often not
including a control group. In addition, the study longitudinally examines
learners’ cognitive processes during study abroad with innovative and
insightful analyses. The book makes an important contribution to second
language pragmatics with regard to developmental changes in both speech act
production and perception during such processes.
