Description

What kind of knowledge second language (L2) learners draw on when performing a grammaticality judgment task (GJT) has been a matter of continuing debate in second language acquisition (SLA) research. Previous research has shown that there is a relationship between the type of knowledge (i.e., implicit or explicit) and L2 proficiency levels. However, the type of L2 acquisition processes involved in GJTs (e.g., semantic processing, noticing, and metalinguistic reflection) has not been explored. This paper reports the results of a study with 160 Japanese EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners, and examines how the type of L2 knowledge, the type of L2 acquisition process, and the level of L2 proficiency interact in a GJT. Interactions were found between the type of knowledge, proficiency levels, and process types.
