Hui Sun

Lecturer in Applied Linguistics @CardiffUni @CUEngCommPhilos. Interested in individual differences in second language acquisition.

[Hui Sun @HuiSunSLA]

Welcome to join us for a one-day hybrid interdisciplinary workshop titled "Language, Linguistics, and Natural Language Processing" on June 10th at Cardiff University. @cardiffuni @CUEngCommPhilos Link for free registration and the agenda: https://t.co/hweFWieiGR

[Hui Sun @HuiSunSLA]

Great. Let the world be crazier.

[UCU @ucu]

400 job cuts announced at Cardiff University.

The Vice Chancellor has said “not to change was not an option.”

Maybe the Vice Chancellor could propose a change to her £290,000 salary or give her company car back.

UCU will deliver a widespread fightback against these attacks.

And it’s about time to move to Bluesky! 🦋

Check out our new paper in Research Methods in Applied Linguistics! 🥁 We introduced a fluency measure to the elicited imitation task and showed how it adds to accuracy to give a more nuanced picture of L2 proficiency.

New paper out 🎺 introducing process-based measures of automatisation in L2

The elicited imitation task is widely used as a measure of automatized L2 knowledge. However, the scoring of the task relies exclusively on product-based measures (i.e., accuracy of L2 production).

[Hui Sun @HuiSunSLA]

About the figure:
- accuracy (y-axis): the higher the better
- fluency (x-axis): the smaller the quicker
- proficiency (color): the redder (at some point the whiter 🤣) the greater

@hmking_linguist @simplygonzalo @LRolland_multi Congrats Dr King! 🎉🎉🎉

Check out our newly published study for how first language listeners’ expectations of the speaker (prompted by accent) determine their perception of grammatical errors, and how the listener personality plays a non-linear role! 🧐 @CUEngCommPhilos @tandfonline

[Out Of Our Minds @ooominds]

New paper now out, Open Access:

A foreign accent protects against being penalised for grammatical errors, depending on personality type

New paper out in @_LangLearning - OPEN ACCESS 🎉

Order effects in Language Learning, with @petarmilin and @LauRomain, funded by @LeverhulmeTrust, examines the effects of order of exposure on second language learners:

@hmking_linguist @DaveJSayers @__BAAL Thanks Hannah!! ❤️

[Kazuya Saito @KazuyaSLA]

Our new paper is out in Journal of Experimental Psychology HPP. We redefine ①what auditory processing is, ②how they can be measured, & ③how they differently impact L2 learning outcomes.
