Peter、Skehan著的《語言學習認知法》著重探討認知心理學與第二語言學習研究的關(guān)系，介紹與語言習得有關(guān)的心理語言學和認知過程方面的知識，探討語言習得的共性與學習者之間的個體差異，并將有關(guān)的理論應用于任務型語言教學和語言測試。
本書開拓了關(guān)于第二語言學習研究的視野。作者以新的視角――心理語言學和認知過程為著眼點，指明了解答第二語言教學中諸多問題的途徑，而這些問題按傳統(tǒng)的方法從語言學和社會語言學的角度來研究是無法解答的。近年來，人們已開始接受從認知過程的角度來進行第二語言學習的研究。這本專著的問世，將有助于加速這種研究的過程，使第二語言學習的研究走向深入。
《語言學習認知法》有助于我國從事外語教學和研究的人員、高校外語專業(yè)的學生及研究生了解國外關(guān)于第二語言教學的最新研究成果，推動我國外語教學研究的進展。
《語言學習認知法》由Peter、Skehan著。
A Cognitive Approach to Language Learning
This book has two major themes: firstly it discusses psycholinguistic and cognitive aspects of language learning and secondly it looks at the contrast between universalist accounts of language learning and accounts which focus on individual differences between learners.Interwoven throughout is a focus on practical applications of these themes in task-based learning and language testing.
The book aims to redress the balance of viewpoints in second language acquisition research and language teaching pedagogy which the author feels has leaned too far towards linguistics and sociolinguistics in recent years and has not until recently drawn effectively on contemporary cognitive psychology.
