Replication research in second language acquisition studies

复制性研究是校验和拓展先前研究、促进科学知识积累的一个重要方法。近年来,国外二语习得研究界逐渐认识到复制性研究对二语习得研究理论发展的重要价值,积极倡导进行复制性研究以检验和拓展现有研究成果。本文基于文献研究从价值、类型和研究步骤三个方面介绍了复制性研究,并推荐了可以进行此类研究的重要课题,以期引起国内二语习得研究界对复制性研究的关注和重视。

Replication research is an essential approach to verify or extend previous re- search findings and to promote the accumulation of scientific knowledge.
