| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The current research analyzed the relationship between L2 proficiency and the speed of vocabulary processing. An MEG date has still being analyzed and the results indicate that advanced learners are faster at lexical processing than beginners, and that beginners utilize broader areas of the brain in semantic processing. In addition, an effect of extensive reading on vocabulary processing and on reading speed has been researched, and it was found that extensive reading enhances not only reading proficiency but also listening proficiency.
