A research trend has emerged with the majority of studies reporting significant moderate negative correlations between FLCA and academic achievement.
“A research trend has emerged with the majority of studies reporting significant moderate negative correlations (Horwitz, 2000); however-as previously noted-deviations to the status quo still occur.”

FLCA is an independent construct, distinct from aptitude, but may influence or be influenced by the performance of the language learner.
“FLCA is defended, with the argument made that FLCA is an independent construct, distinct from aptitude, but which may influence or be influenced by the performance of the language learner.”

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.
