Multi-Dimensional Analysis in writing and speaking tests in order to re-evaluate, revise and even refine the representation of constructs of language in the rubric. Gablasova investigates word acquisition from academic reading in first and second language by two groups of students, which shows the students tend to trigger more superordinate words and high-frequency words during vocabulary acquisition. Egbert and Davis study the semantic relationships in Noun + Noun sequences and their diachronic changes in the Corpus of Historical American English to show methods for addressing historical change. Chapter 8–10 move to triangulate corpus methods with psycholinguistics. Hughes and Hardie explore collocation by combining corpus data with experimental work, showing that there is a neurophysiological difference in the way that the brain processes collocational bigrams versus non-collocational ones. Gries examines the dative alternation between ditransitives and to-datives and structural priming effects on learners’ choices of verb construction. Ellis investigates the processing of abstract verb-argument constructions and verb-preposition collocations in an experiment. The results suggest that a combination of corpus linguistics and psycholinguistics increases ecological validity. In the last chapter, the editors conclude by describing the benefits and drawbacks of triangulation and explore the degree to which the triangulation was successful in these nine individual studies. Triangulation helps the researchers establish the ecological validity of constructs or findings, and complement and benefit from interor crossdisciplinarity so that the limitation of any single approach can be significantly reduced. However, it can be a challenge to establish and justify the relationship among the wider range of concepts involved in triangulating approaches, and contradictions in results might occur. Overall, this edited volume provides a macro-level overview and detailed empirical case studies of triangulation in corpus linguistics that are an important step forward in enhancing the methodological rigor of the field. However, this emphasis on methods might leave readers wondering where the identity of corpus linguistics lies and what role its own theoretical frameworks can play. Methodological triangulation in linguistic research relies on multiple data sources, measurements and even observational units (human participants, vs corpus texts). The methodology itself should not only be selfdiscovery, transparent and capable of being replicated and repeated, but it must be generalisable as well; thus, generalisation of the new paradigm or framework of convergence in research methodology is essential, as well as a clear system of measures to evaluate or assess the contribution of triangulation.

书评:Ourania Hatzidaki 和 Dionysis Goutsos (eds),希腊危机:结合批判性话语和语料库语言学观点

写作和口语测试中的多维分析,以重新评估、修改甚至完善评分量规中语言结构的表示。Gablasova 调查了两组学生在第一语言和第二语言的学术阅读中的词汇习得情况,这表明学生在词汇习得过程中倾向于触发更多的上位词和高频词。Egbert 和 Davis 在美国历史英语语料库中研究名词 + 名词序列中的语义关系及其历时变化,以展示应对历史变化的方法。第 8-10 章将使用心理语言学对语料库方法进行三角测量。Hughes 和 Hardie 通过将语料库数据与实验工作相结合来探索搭配,表明大脑处理搭配二元组与非搭配二元组的方式存在神经生理学差异。Gries 研究了双及物语和对格之间的与格交替以及结构启动效应对学习者动词结构选择的影响。Ellis 在实验中研究了抽象动词-参数结构和动词-介词搭配的处理过程。结果表明,语料库语言学和心理语言学的结合提高了生态有效性。在最后一章中,编辑最后描述了三角剖分的优缺点,并探讨了这九项单独研究中三角剖分的成功程度。三角测量帮助研究人员建立构建或发现的生态有效性,并从内部交叉学科中补充和受益,从而可以显着减少任何单一方法的局限性。然而,建立和证明三角测量方法所涉及的更广泛概念之间的关系可能是一个挑战,结果可能会出现矛盾。总的来说,这本编辑过的卷提供了语料库语言学中三角测量的宏观概述和详细的实证案例研究,这是提高该领域方法论严谨性的重要一步。然而,这种对方法的强调可能会让读者想知道语料库语言学的身份在哪里,以及它自己的理论框架可以发挥什么作用。语言研究中的方法论三角测量依赖于多个数据源、测量甚至观察单位(人类参与者,vs 语料库文本)。方法论本身不仅应该是自我发现的、透明的、能够复制和重复的,而且还必须具有普遍性;因此,研究方法论的新范式或趋同框架的概括以及评估或评估三角测量贡献的明确措施系统是必不可少的。
