Repetition in the Collaborative Discourse of L2 Learners: A Vygotskian Perspective
Abstract
This study investigates the role of repetition in the discourse of students of Spanish as a second language working on a writing assignment in collaborative dyads. Data were taken from audio tapes of the dyads' collaborative sessions. The occurrences of repetition (of self or of the other member of the dyad) were analyzed from the theoretical perspective based on the work of L.S. Vygotsky (1978, 1986), which argues that 'sociocultural and mental activity are bound together in a dependent, symbolically mediated, relationship' (Lantolf & Pavlenko, 1995). This study shows that the sociocultural and mental activity of our subjects is mediated by the repetition of both Ll and L2 utterances, the effect of which is to create and maintain a shared perspective of the task (i.e., intersubjectivity) and to construct scaffolded help, which enables them to complete their tasks.

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.
