续写任务类型和二语水平对英语写作词汇丰富性的影响研究
发布时间:2024-04-22 19:19
词汇丰富性是从广度上衡量学生词汇使用的重要指标。在过去的几十年里,学者们对于学生词汇丰富性的发展模式以及词汇丰富性与写作质量的关系进行了大量研究。但前人关于词汇丰富性影响因素的研究较为局限。鉴于此,本研究探讨续写任务类型对于不同水平学生词汇丰富性的影响。本研究旨在解决如下三个研究问题:(1)读后续写任务和关键词提示续写任务对学生英语写作词汇丰富性产生何种影响?续写任务类型的影响是以何种方式体现在词汇多样性,词汇复杂性和词汇密度上的?(2)学生的高低水平对学生英语写作词汇丰富性产生何种影响?二语水平的影响是以何种方式体现在词汇多样性,词汇复杂性和词汇密度上的?(3)续写任务类型和学生二语水平对学生词汇丰富性的表现产生何种交互影响?为回答以上三个问题,山东省某重点大学共计82名英语专业学生参与此次研究。其中,40名大三学生为高水平学生,42名大一学生为低水平学生。22名高水平学生和22名低水平学生完成读后续写任务。18名高水平学生和20名低水平学生完成关键词提示续写任务。定量研究使用Range 32词汇软件处理和分析学生的写作文本,数据用于描述性分析,独立样本t检验,曼-惠特尼U检验和单因...
