Responses to Recasts: Repetitions, Primed Production, and Linguistic Development
Abstract
Although a number of studies have associated recasts with second language development, the actual mechanisms by which recasts work to impact learning are still little understood. In particular, researchers have sought to gain a deeper understanding of the connections among recasts, learners' responses to recasts, and subsequent development. To this end, the current study examines the impact of recasts and different types of responses on English as a second language (ESL) question development. In a pretest/posttest design, 58 Thai English as a foreign language university students carried out a series of communicative tasks with native English speakers and completed four tests over a 9‐week period. The learners' treatment task data were analyzed for the occurrence of recasts and responses to recasts that targeted developmentally advanced question forms. Their test data were examined for evidence of advancement to a higher stage in the developmental sequence for question formation. Results indicate that recasts were a significant predictor of ESL question development. Learners' responses in the form of primed production of the question forms targeted in the recasts were also predictive of ESL question development, but responses in the form of immediate repetitions of recasts were not associated with development.

In the citing paper
“Immediate repetition was not.”
From Position paper: Moving task-based language teaching forward (2017) · cites this paper as McDonough and Mackey (2006)
In the citing paper
“They found that what they called 'primed repetition' of the recasts (i.e.repetition that did not take place immediately following the recasts but within six turns) was associated with L2 development.”
From Position paper: Moving task-based language teaching forward (2017) · cites this paper as McDonough and Mackey (2006)
In the citing paper
“However, it could be argued that the 'primed repetition' in this study was closer to an immediate than a delayed response.”

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.
