The Influence Mechanism of an Inclusive Organizational Climate on Innovation Input of Sci-Tech Talents

With the implementation of China’s innovation-driven development strategy,the competition among sci-tech talents has become increasingly fierce.Stimulating the innovative vigor of sci-tech talents has become a hot topic in theoretical research and policy practice.Based on the data from 246 questionnaires collected from sci-tech talents in Hebei province,this study explored the influence mechanism of an inclusive organizational climate on innovation input from technological talents and verified the mediating effects of innovation self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation.The results indicate that an inclusive organizational climate has a significant positive impact on innovation input,innovation self-efficacy,and intrinsic motivation of sci-tech talents.Both innovation self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation play a partial mediating role between an inclusive climate and innovation input.This study verified the important role of an inclusive climate in an organization’s human resource management practices and encouraged managers to emphasize enhancing the innovation self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation of sci-tech talents,thereby continuously improving the level of innovation.

Training Low-Achiever EFL Learners with Metacognitive Strategy Training for Effective Vocabulary Retention

There is ample research on the vocabulary learning strategies used by EFL and ESL learners.Moreover,many researchers have attempted to discern the effectiveness of teaching vocabulary learning strategies instruction.However,the impact of using metacognitive strategies along with vocabulary learning strategies on weak language learners has not been researched.The aim of this paper is to report on the effects of training low-achiever English as a foreign language learners with vocabulary learning strategies along with metacognitive strategies on vocabulary acquisition.Two B1 level groups of students were assigned as treatment and control groups at a university in Istanbul,Turkey.A Vocabulary Strategy Use Survey was given to identify the vocabulary strategy use of the subjects at the outset of the study.The treatment group was trained on vocabulary learning strategies combined with metacognitive strategy training.The control group studied the same words without any training.A vocabulary test was administered to both groups as a post-test and the results were compared.The findings of the Post-Test demonstrated that training weak language learners with vocabulary learning strategies along with metacognitive strategies has a positive impact on helping these learners increase their lexical knowledge,as the experimental group scored higher on the post-test compared to the control group.

通用学术词表Academic Vocabulary List(AVL)修订述略

学术英语词汇是学术英语教学的重点和难点,不同时代和学科曾编写过各类学术词表。加德纳和戴维斯(2014)基于学术语料容量达1.2亿的COCA语料库推出学术词表Academic Vocabulary List(AVL),该词表在学术英语教学和研究中得到广泛应用。然而实践表明,AVL词表收录的3015个词元存在词汇重复、以词元为单位排列的词表和以词族为单位排列的词表不相吻合等问题。本研究尝试以科学性原则、适切性原则、时效性原则为指导,基于AVL词表原有的比率、分布、离散度、学科指数四条选词标准,增加最低频次和经验判断两条新标准对AVL词表予以完善和修订。完善修订后的AVL词表由先前的1991个词族、3015个词元缩减至709个词族1715个词元,较修订前更具简洁性和高效性。希望依据3项原则和6项标准所做的修订为学术英语教与学以及学术英语教材编写和选用带来新的参考。

A Study of the Use and Translation of Archaic Functional Vocabulary in the Berne Convention

The archaic functional vocabulary is highly with the legal features of formality and conservativeness and still holding a place in legal English.The Berne Convention is a good example to study the use and translation of the archaic functional vocabulary.By studying what archaic functional words or phrases are used in the Berne Convention,their meanings and the different use frequencies of them between the Berne Convention and the Copy Right Law of PRC,it has been found that arhcaic adverbs are used of low frequency,while some adjectives or adjectival groups as well as some prepositions or prepositional phrases are used of high frequencies.The use frequencies of the archaic functional vocabulary is higher in the Berne Convention than those in the Copy Right law of PRC.Some suggestions can be put forward to help improve translating Chinese legal documents into English or writing English legal documents.

A Quasi-Experimental Study of English Vocabulary Teaching Based on Incidental Acquisition

Recent years have witnessed a phenomenon that major English teachers in China have adopted the traditional teaching pattern, mechanically linking English pronunciations directly with the meaning of Chinese, which gradually dampens learners’ enthusiasm. The chief purpose of this paper was to design one English vocabulary teaching lesson based on incidental acquisition. More specifically, the questions raised are, on the one hand, whether incidental vocabulary teaching imprints differences on the learning outcomes for middle school students, and, on the other hand, whether incidental acquisition results in positive feedback between teachers and students. The technique we applied was referred to as questionnaires and interviews addressed to a sample of 68 students. Focusing on the effect of incidental vocabulary acquisition, the analysis demonstrated that it could enhance students’ vocabulary capacity. In addition, it was interesting to note that excellent students and average students tended to embrace the new teaching style while underachievers were on the opposite side. On this basis, it is recommended for English teachers to design English vocabulary lessons, adopting visual, auditory, oral, reading or writing training. More precisely, they should use phonics rules and patterns, holistic learning, classified vocabulary teaching, visual illustration or multimedia teaching to give lessons effectively and expand learners’ vocabulary.

A Study on Second Language Vocabulary Acquisition Under the Categorization Theory

In cognitive linguistics,debates on the status and functions of categorization have been a heated issue.In semantics and second language acquisition,scholars have discussed and achieved vocabulary acquisition from different perspectives and academic levels.Vocabulary learning exerts a fundamental role in second language vocabulary acquisition(SLVA),and it is closely related to learners’cognitive competence.However,studies on second language vocabulary acquisition under the categorization theory in cognitive linguistics have received less attention from linguists when compared with other studies.This paper employs two representative dimensions,the basic-level effect and the prototype effect,under the categorization theory to further delve into the implications on second language vocabulary acquisition.This article first provides a comprehensive introduction to the nature and the approaches of the categorization theory,and then analyzes the relations and implications for second language vocabulary acquisition under the categorization theory from the perspective of the basic-level and the prototype effects.The research results showed that the basic-level effect on SLVA is mainly on the classification of word categories distinguished from the superordinate and subordinate categories,while the prototype effect is more on understanding the complexity and use of word meaning.

语言符号与知觉符号表征对外语词汇习得的影响比较:来自行为与脑电的实验证据

通过行为与脑电实验技术,比较外语词汇学习过程中,语言符号与知觉符号表征对词汇记忆编码与再认的影响过程,从而考察语义表征对词汇习得的影响机制。行为结果表明,语言符号与知觉符号表征条件下被试对词汇学习效果的主观判断无显著差异,但后者比前者有更高的词汇再认正确率。脑电结果表明,对于词汇编码阶段,相较语言符号表征,知觉符号表征在编码晚期诱发更正的LPC成分;对于词汇再认阶段,知觉符号表征条件诱发更大N400成分,且脑电时频分析表明该条件下出现更为明显的μ波抑制及θ波功率增强现象。研究结果综合表明,与语言符号表征便捷但非模态化的语义加工相比,知觉符号表征加深了词汇晚期编码的深度,并通过知觉模拟,利用多模态信息提高了词汇的形象化再认,从而推动了再认阶段的语义检索,最终内隐性地提高了词汇学习效果。

新颖词语义韵的发生机制:“双枣树”效应的证据

以中文母语者为被试开展词汇学习实验,既操控新颖词出现的语境情感(积极、消极、中性),又操控语境的变异性(重复、变化),检验语境情感是否可通过阅读接触,从语境迁移到新颖词以及这种迁移是否影响新颖词习得的效果,从而探索新颖词语义韵的发生机制。196名被试参加了实验,他们在不同的语境情感和语境的变异性条件下一共阅读了45个篇章,然后对9个新颖词进行情感效价评分并参加了三种不同的词汇知识测试。结果显示,只有在重复阅读相同材料的条件下,语境的情感才顺利地迁移到新颖词,表现出明显的“双枣树”效应,而与此相反的是,只有在变化语境下,语境情感才对新颖词词形及词义的学习具有显著的预测作用,在越积极的情感语境里,词形和词义的习得效果也越好。“双枣树”效应有效地解释了新颖词语义韵的发生机制,也为新词学习提供了重要启示。
