John Benjamins Publishing is please to announce a new journal to be
published in 2011: 

Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism (LAB)

Over the past few decades there has been a sharp increase in the scientific
precision and complexity of the linguistic study of bilingualism. This
journal will contribute to this general program, assuming a broad
definition of bilingualism including:

- Adult L2 acquisition 
- Simultaneous child bilingualism 
- Child L2 acquisition 
- Adult heritage speaker competence 
- L1 attrition in L2/Ln environments 
- Adult L3/Ln acquisition.

Linguistic Approaches to Bilingualism will provide an outlet for
cutting-edge, contemporary studies on bilingualism, exclusively from formal
linguistic and cognitive science approaches. The journal will solicit
high-quality articles of original research assuming any cognitive science
approach to understanding the mental representation of bilingual language
competence and performance, including cognitive linguistic theories,
emergentism/connectionism, generative theories, psycholinguistic and
processing accounts, and covering typical and atypical populations (e.g.,
SLI and other linguistic disorders). Four types of articles will appear in LAB.

http://www.benjamins.com/jbp/series/LAB/guidelines.doc

General Research articles: 8,000-10,000 word articles that present original
empirical research pertinent to the study of cognitive-linguistic
bilingualism. 

Squibs and Research Reports: These articles should not exceed 5,000 words
and should present research on ongoing theoretical projects or subsets of
data sets making significant contributions that are time sensitive.

Epistemological Topics: these articles on topics of general epistemological
interest in the sub-disciplines that contribute research to the journal
will be between 8,000 and 12,000 words and will be by invitation only. 

Spotlight issue: Annually, one Spotlight issue will be published focusing
on research of one particular language, language family or a cohort of
articles addressing the same theoretical questions within the remit of the
journal.  Proposals to guest edit this issue should be no longer than 3
pages and sent to the editors.

Slabakova by e-mailing them at the journal e-mail LABjournal at uiowa.edu

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
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 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple 
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.
