Abstract:

This unique volume offers a comprehensive discussion of essential theoretical
and methodological issues concerning the pivotal role of working memory in
second language learning and processing. The collection opens with a foreword
and introductory theoretical chapters written by leading figures in the field
of cognitive psychology. Following these are three research sections
containing chapters providing original data and innovative insights into the
dynamic and complex relationships between working memory and specific areas of
second language processing, instruction, performance and development. Each
section concludes with a commentary which is written by a noted SLA researcher
and which charts the course for future research. This book provides a
fascinating collection of perspectives on the relationship between working
memory and second language learning and will appeal to those interested in the
integration of cognitive psychology with SLA research.
