Special Issue ''The notion of the native speaker put to test: Recent research
advances'' (Frontiers in Psychology)

The notion of the native speaker has occupied a prominent place in second
language acquisition, psycholinguistic, bilingualism and theoretical research.
In Chomsky's early definition, native speakers are characterized by their
ability to provide valid judgments on their language, although they may not be
able to provide the reasons for such judgments. Current understanding has
moved away from the Chomskyan idealized characterization, mainly in 
recognition of the amply documented individual variation in language
competence, both in adult native speakers, and across language development and
different populations of speakers. 

Recent research on language attrition suggests that L2 learning selectively
affects aspects of the native language, further undermining the notion of
native monolingual competence as a permanent benchmark. 

We welcome contributions from, but not limited to, the fields of
psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, second language learning, bilingualism,
heritage languages, language attrition, focusing on the following overarching
questions:
- Who is a native speaker?
- What reliable criteria can be used?
- Can the traditional definition of a native speaker 
be maintained in a world that is largely multilingual?
We particularly welcome original research articles, hypotheses & theoretical
contributions, opinions, and perspective papers. 
Interdisciplinary research is specifically encouraged.
