Meeting Description:

“Variation in Language Acquisition” is a conference focusing on the
acquisition of sociolinguistic variation in multilingual and multidialectal
contexts in first and second or foreign languages. ViLA 3 aims to bring
together the growing amount of research that considers the ability to perceive
and employ variation in speech an integral part of the language acquisition
process.

The conference comes as the third one of this kind, after a workshop in 2012
in Münster, Germany, and a conference in Grenoble, France, in 2014. ViLA 3
will take place in Salzburg, Austria. 

The following invited speakers have confirmed their participation:

Stéphanie Barbu, Université Rennes 1, France
Gunther de Vogelaer, Universität Münster, Deutschland
Mercedes Durham, Cardiff University, United Kingdom
Carla Hudson-Kam, University of British Columbia, Canada

The conference aims to cover the following four thematic issues:

1. Child acquisition of dialectal varieties of the first language;
2. Child second language acquisition within multilingual/multidialectal
communities;
3. Lifelong acquisition of language-internal variation in the case of second
language learning in contact with native speakers (e.g. study abroad,
migration), and learning about sociolinguistic variation in the foreign
language classroom;
4. Lifelong second dialect acquisition.

Call for Papers:

Research from different disciplinary backgrounds is welcome: sociolinguistics,
psycholinguistics, social cognition, anthropology, neurosciences, etc. Again,
we encourage proposals that bring together cognitive and social issues or that
combine experimental and corpus or field methods.

We solicit abstracts for 20-minute paper presentations followed by 10-minute
discussions or posters that address the above issues.

Posters will be briefly presented on one slide during the morning session and
will be displayed during the day and especially during the one-hour poster
session in the afternoon. 

Abstracts for presentations or posters should adhere to a limit of max. 300
words (excluding references) and may be submitted using EasyAbstracts: 
 http://linguistlist.org/easyabs/ViLA3

The deadline for abstract submission is May 31, 2016.
