Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present research investigates the developmental process of first- and second-language narratives. Fictional stories based on a picture book made by three groups-Japanese children aged 3 to 11; Japanese adults; and JSL (Japanese as a second language) learners at five different proficiency levels-are analyzed with respect to how they produced a well-formed narrative. The narrative data was converted into the JCHAT format (Miyata, Morikawa and Muraki, 2004). This data was analyzed using the CLAN programs (MacWinney, 2000). The analysis concerning the change of MLU (Mean Length of Utterance; Brown, 1970) demonstrated a similarity in first- and second-language development, although the background of language learning for the groups is different. Other analyses revealed the various similarities and differences between them. Further research concerning the influence of psychological factors on development is called for.
