Abstract

AbstractThe time‐series design (TSD) allows applied linguists to investigate two issues: (a) the nature of language use or acquisition over time; and (b) the effect of a specific variable or session of learning on that use or acquisition. The time period of investigation could be seconds and milliseconds, as in applied phonetics research that measures vocal‐fold vibrations (e.g., Mergell, Herzel, & Titze, 2000) and spoken discourse research that measures stages in speech planning and production (e.g., Roberts & Kirsner, 2000). This entry focuses on the study of language use and development across days and weeks and in response to particular sessions of instruction.
