前言
這部專著源自趙福利撰寫的博士學位論文“二語知識模型的有效性:一項以英語學習者情態(tài)動詞學習情況為基礎(chǔ)的研究”。這項研究課題具有相當?shù)纳疃群碗y度,不僅要求作者深入了解二語習得中語言知識結(jié)構(gòu)的各種理論模型,而且要求作者具體掌握英語學習者英語情態(tài)動詞的學習情況。在二語習得研究的宏觀和微觀這兩個方面,能做到其中之一已很不容易,而把兩個方面研究都做到,并讓兩者有機地結(jié)合,使微觀調(diào)查有效地為宏觀框架服務(wù),那就更加困難。該專著作者獨具匠心,從調(diào)查英語學習者掌握英語情態(tài)動詞情況入手,進而比較和驗證國外學者提出的二語習得的知識結(jié)構(gòu)模型,最后提出自己關(guān)于二語習得結(jié)構(gòu)模型的設(shè)想。這樣就做到了宏觀研究與微觀研究的結(jié)合,把理論探索的難題解決在實證研究的過程之中。因此,該專著無論在研究思路上,還是在研究方法上,都有相當?shù)膮⒖純r值,值得推廣。 該書所比較和檢驗的四個二語知識結(jié)構(gòu)模型,都是這個領(lǐng)域的研究者比較熟悉的理論模型。它們是Canale&Swain的交際能力理論模型(1980)、Larsen-Freeman的教學語法模型(1991)、Bachman&Palmer的二語能力模型(1996)和Purpura的二語語法能力模型(2004.)。二語習得領(lǐng)域的研究者一般都愿意介紹某個理論模型并應(yīng)用其中的一些有用部分,但很少對理論模型的有效性進行系統(tǒng)的研究,用實證的方法系統(tǒng)地比較和檢驗這些理論模型的研究就更少了。本書的作者不僅用實證研究的方法驗證了四個二語知識模型的有效性程度,而且在此基礎(chǔ)上提煉出一個具有一定新意的二語知識結(jié)構(gòu)模型。
內(nèi)容概要
《二語知識模型的有效性研究》以中國學生對英語情態(tài)動詞的習得為研究對象,對以往研究中提出的幾個較有影響的二語知識模型進行了有效性驗證,在此基礎(chǔ)上提出了一個更加簡化且更具解釋力的二語知識模型,并改進了使用結(jié)構(gòu)方程進行類似研究的方法。二語知識建構(gòu)的研究對于二語教學及測試具有重要的理論意義和現(xiàn)實意義?!抖Z知識模型的有效性研究》除對二語知識模型的有效性驗證,還研究了英語情態(tài)動詞習得過程中的一些重要問題,適合對二語習得規(guī)律、英語教學及結(jié)構(gòu)方程在語言學中應(yīng)用方法等感興趣的教師和學生閱讀。

章節(jié)摘錄
5) Interpreting the tactor structure. In interpreting meacmrstructure, each of the measures will be linearly related to each of thefactors. The strength of this relationship is contained in therespective factor loading, produced by the factor rotation in the step.Actually this step is inseparable fiom factor rotation in step 4. Though the EFA procedures are complex, they can be easilyrealized with the help of the statistics tools. It is only a matter ofparameter-setting in the computer softwares. The significance ofexploratory factor analysis in the book lies in that it not only helps usdetermine the latent factors to be included in the models underexamination, but also provides statistical evidence for our initialassumptions about the make-up of the concerning L2 knowledgemodeling.3.4.4 Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) In this book, we use structural equation modeling as theprimary analytical tool to investigate the adequacy of the models inquestion. Structural equation models refer to the models thatrepresent the causal and correlational links between theoreticalvariables. More specifically, they represent the inter-relationshipsamong observed and latent variables (theoretical construct) andthe inter-relationships among latent variables. Structural equationmodeling can then be viewed as a family of statistical proceduresfor representing and testing such models. It aims to provide ameaningful and parsimonious explanation for observed phenomena.Advantages of using structural equation modeling over exploratoryfactor analysis include its powerful hypothesis-testing capabilitiesand (2) its capabilities of taking into account measurement errors aswell as systemic errors (e. g., test method effects) (Bentler, 1995).
