Linguistic correlates of comprehensibility in second language Japanese speech

This study examined phonological, temporal, lexical and grammatical correlates of native speakers’ perception of second language (L2) comprehensibility (i.e., ease of understanding). L2 learners of Japanese with various proficiency levels engaged in oral picture description tasks which were judged by native speaking raters for comprehensibility, and then submitted to pronunciation, fluency, and lexicogrammar analyses. According to correlation analyses and linear mixed-models, the native speaking judges’ comprehensibility ratings were significantly linked not only with actual usage of words in context (lexical appropriateness) but also with the surface details of words (pitch accent, speech rate, lexical variation). Similar to previous L2 English studies (e.g., Isaacs & Trofimovich, 2012), the influence of segmental and morphological errors in the comprehensibility of L2 Japanese speech appeared to be minor

日本における「プロダクティヴ・エイジング」の可能性

In the aged society, the ratio of aged people retired from activities in the market economy will rise. However, many aged people still continue learning and hobbies and are participating in social activities. A trial was begun in the 1990s to understand those aged people who perform activities independently in many fields by applying the concept of Productive Aging. The purpose of this study is to understand aged people\u27s power for voluntary activities in Japan and explore the possibility of Productive Aging. Methods used are the models of Bass and Caro, and the Productive Aging Paradigm. Data used are the data of "Volunteer Activities" contained in the "2001 Survey on Time Use and Leisure Activities" implemented by the Statistics Bureau. From these, we are able to demonstrate that Productive Activity of people continues after their age exceeds the limit for productive labor in the labor market. The discovery that Productive Activity is not limited to the labor ability in the labor market enables correcting the conventional image that aged people are passive
