简介 Brief Introduction

The ‘frequency-of-occurrence’ effect has been well documented in the psycholinguistic literature (e.g. Balota and Chumbley 1984; Barry, Morrison and Ellis 1997; Schilling, Rayner and Chumbley 1998). The target words fell between the 3K and 8K frequency bands. As suggested by Schmitt and Schmitt (2014), this ‘mid-frequency’ vocabulary needs more investigation.

研究问题 Research Questions 

RQ1: Do learners benefit more from glossed conditions than from the NG condition in terms of their incidental vocabulary acquisition and retention?

RQ2: Do the effects of HFLG and LFLG differ in incidental vocabulary learning?

RQ3: Does the factor of learner proficiency (higher versus lower) modulate the effects of NG, HFLG and LFLG on lexical acquisition and retention?

RQ4: What are learners’ views on the use of HFLG and LFLG?

研究方法 Research Methods 

Three weeks before our experiment, participants took an academic version of the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) test2 to check their overall proficiency, and a VLT (Vocabulary Levels Test) to measure their vocabulary knowledge. The VLT is an adapted version of the size test(NationandBelgar2007). A recall test and a recognition test were administered to the participants to assess their acquisition and retention of the meaning of target items.

读后感 Comment 

（1）Studies on the way of presenting glosses

（2）Regarding the effectiveness of HFLG versus LFLG, no significant differences were found, with the exception that lower proficiency learners benefited more from HFLG than LFLG in their immediate recall. The questionnaire results showed that most participants preferred HFLG to LFLG, largely because the former type is less difficult for encoding and comprehension.
