Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • PPP and the skill-builders' view is that language acquisition is teacher-driven, whereas TBLT views language acquisition as learner-driven.

    “As Skehan (2002, p. 294) noted, PPP and the skill-builders' view is that language acquisition is teacher-driven, whereas, with support from decades of SLA research, TBLT views language acquisition as learner-driven.”

  • PPP, delivered following a one-size-fits-all commercial textbook, undermines the teacher's creativity and decision-making role.

    “As Skehan (2002) pointed out in a response to an earlier flurry of charges from Bruton (2002a), it is Bruton's favored language-based, lockstep PPP, delivered following the dictates of a one-size-fits-all commercial textbook, which really undermines the teacher's creativity and decision-making role.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
