Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effectiveness of instructional methods aimed at promoting awareness of errors in verb argument structure among Japanese learners of English was empirically investigated through the collection of speech data. The results of the experiment revealed that, in the case of errors related to intransitive and transitive verb argument structure, learners were able to recognize their own errors in most cases. Once they became aware and understood the appropriate forms of the verbs, they were able to use the verbs with the correct argument structure in subsequent speech. Furthermore, the study shed light on the specific intransitive verbs that Japanese learners of English tend to overgeneralize the passive voice with, as well as the extent to which the animacy of the subject influences this phenomenon.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、日本語を母語とする英語学習者(JLEs)の英語能力をより効果的に伸ばすには、学習者に「自身の誤りに気づかせることが有効である」という仮説の下、その仮説が実際にどれほど有効であるかを、発話データを収集し実証的に調査した第二言語の習得研究である。本研究の特色は、JLEsの実際の発話をデータとし、それを本人に分析させることで、誤りへの気づきを促す点にある。このような視点から学習者の発話データを分析し、学習者が気づきやすい文法項目とそうでない項目とに分類し、その成果を英語教育に応用した研究報告はこれまでになく、その意味でも本研究の意義は大きいと考える。
